Network Notation

Network Notation is a game about a lost and confused artificial intelligence searching for its origin. You exploit vulnerabilities across more than 90 networks in nanoseconds, learning about the world inside and outside the internet. Each encounter helps you improve abilities across a range of categories.

Campaign and story

The campaign spans more than 90 levels, each with challenges suited to that stage of the game. As you uncover their secrets, you read anecdotes from nine different companies.

Networks and opposition

Maps combine different types of nodes and connections, creating varied problems to solve. Each node has at least three stats that subtly affect how a level plays. Security systems behave differently across maps: some try to kick you out of the network, while others strengthen themselves before preventing you from reaching your goal.

Upgrades and difficulty

You allocate your score across six upgrade categories as you venture into more secure parts of the internet. Upgrades can increase your power, traversal speed or the time you remain undetected. You can reallocate points to suit a challenge or your preferred play style; points are never lost or locked.

You can replay levels with additional modifiers that raise the difficulty and multiply your score. The game can also be slowed down or paused so you can check details at your own pace.
