Echolink: Recursion

Echolink: Recursion is an active incremental cyberpunk hacking simulation. You play a hacker sent back through time to uncover a conspiracy that keeps collapsing history, starting in the 1990s with a dial-up modem, a terminal and your wits before advancing to the neural megacities of 2150.

Build your operation

At first, you crack networks manually, one keystroke at a time, run missions and earn creds for upgrades. You can then script tasks, bring in a crew to run side jobs and use AI to automate your hacking skills.

Attack enemy networks

When stealth is not enough, you can deploy neural viruses, build proxy chains and automate your operation. Enemy factions respond with their own viruses and ice sentinels to hunt you down.

Progress through resets

When the timeline collapses, you keep what you learned. A meta-progression tree with hundreds of nodes lets you gain further progress with each reset, eventually taking your hacking beyond systems and into time itself.
