00:30My job here is to destroy the system's core. The system's core will then give me a success.
00:35My virus has a coherence, which is its health, it's its point, and it also has its strength, which is
00:41how much damage it does to other systems within here.
00:44So I also have utility slots, which are little slots I can place good things in.
00:50So the object of the game is to find the core. I start at the top left. I can left
00:56click to proceed into the system, like this.
00:58As you can see, it unlocks adjacent nodes, and I can proceed through like this.
01:03I may encounter good things, like this utility subsystem. This one is a self-repair.
01:08So I can left click it to equip it, as you can see down the bottom, and it has 3
01:13tons. It will repair me by 9 coherence over 3 tons.
01:16So I can click it to use it once. There we go. You can see my coherence going up on
01:20the bottom left.
01:21And I proceed through the system. I may encounter some defensive subsystems in here, which will block my progress, or
01:28I may encounter some more utility subsystems.
01:31There we go. That's quite handy. I'm going to proceed down to the bottom left here, maybe go back the
01:36way, have a little search about, see if I can find any more utility subsystems.
01:40I am looking for the core. That's my prerogative. And here is a defensive subsystem. This is a firewall. It
01:47has 60 coherence and 20 strength.
01:50So as you can see, it's blocked off all the adjacent nodes behind it. There's another one. It's blocked my
01:54path.
01:55I now only have one available route that I can go without attacking something. I now have none. So now
02:00I'm stuck.
02:01I have to attack one of these defensive subsystems. I don't know which one I should go for. It depends.
02:07I'll take the one down the bottom left.
02:08So as you can see, the combat happens simultaneously. It takes 20 coherence off me because it has 20 strength.
02:14And I take 30 coherence off it because I have 30 strength.
02:18Here I found a data cache, which is basically like a treasure chest. The insight could be one of these,
02:24an antivirus, which is a little bit harder than the other ones.
02:27As you can see, it's double the strength of the usual firewalls. But it could have also been a beneficial
02:31utility subsystem, which would have been better than the ones you generally find on the board.
02:36So here I'm still looking for the core. I've been blocked off. I'm going to attack this firewall because I
02:40still have enough coherence. And there we go. I found the core.
02:44I'm just going to check what's next to it. Just for just greed. Just greed's sakes. So here I can
02:50attack the core and my hack is successful.
02:51This is difficulty tier one. There is four levels of difficulty. So, you know, you will encounter more devious defensive
02:58softwares and some more beneficial utility subsystems as well.
03:03So have fun and I hope this helps.
