Welcome to the Terminal

You’re in the terminal — dark nets, data streams, high-stakes targets. Scan the network, stack exploits, hit locations before the rest do. Disrupt markets, harden positions, plant intel. 2–6 players, ~1 hr. Win with fame from hacks and end-game data value on the blockchain.

Gameplay overview

2–6 players, ~60 minutes. You’re racing to control locations, earn fame from hacks, and build end-game data value on the blockchain. Scan the network, stack exploits, hit locations first—disrupt the board or harden your position. The most notorious hacker wins.

A self-compiling card game

This is a game that literally compiles itself from scripts. The boards, data decks, and location cards are auto-generated from a custom build system—designed to feel truly self-aware.

Our goal is to open-source the entire game and its build pipeline. That allows the community to hack, share, and remix decks globally, creating a living, evolving meta-game—and to see who becomes the most notorious hacker on the planet.

Proof of Exploit (optional)

Players can scan and share their successful hacks as Proof of Exploit via QR codes. This feature is a thematic extension of the game’s digital–physical hybrid; it is entirely optional and not required to play the core tabletop experience.
