Interstellar Espionage Inc.

Interstellar Espionage Inc. is about running an interstellar spy business. You explore a randomly generated universe, build an intelligence network and steal data and technology from corporations. Sell information to become the galaxy’s richest operative, or keep it from a corporation to limit its influence.

Choose your character

You can play as one of three characters, each with attributes that shape your strategy. Spymasters build relationships with corporate CEOs easily, but betrayals can quickly damage those relationships. Cryptographers are more powerful in combined operations, while crackers work from the shadows: they receive fewer bonuses, but also face fewer penalties from corporate actions.

Build your network

Use a probe to find planets, asteroids and space stations in the randomly generated universe. Expand your operations by building relays, operations hubs and admin centers. The corporate network develops in response to your operations and data sales, while corporations can retaliate by destroying agents, issuing vendettas or blocking operations. Corporate bankruptcies, liquidations and stolen bases also affect the network.

Run operations

Launch operations from your hubs and target planets and their corporations to steal data. You can assign multiple agents to a corporation to improve your chances of success. Sell stolen data to the highest bidder, or hold onto it to prevent a corporation from gaining too much influence; your sales can reshape the corporate landscape.

You can also steal and develop dozens of technologies, then put them to use in your spying operations. Your career may earn you retirement on a private planet, or leave you on a cheap asteroid with your space dog.
