868-back revives classic cyberpunk roguelike with new features

Michael Brough has released 868-BACK, an updated version of his 2013 game 868-HACK. The title offers players a more accessible entry into the difficult cyberpunk roguelike genre.

In 2013 New Zealand developer Michael Brough launched 868-HACK as a turn-based iPhone game focused on cyber attacks and circuitry. The new title keeps the core loop of controlling a one-eyed smiley face that collects siphons to extract resources while avoiding anti-virus programs on a grid-based map.
