Story

The story escalates at a pace that should be studied by scientists.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
HackHub is a really enjoyable game, and I’ve been having fun exploring the systems, learning how everything works, and progressing through the gameplay.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
35 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
In my opinion, the multiplayer is where the game really has more potential and feels more like the actual point of the game.
Linux compatibility
Players who bring up Linux compatibility mostly praise it.
28 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It looks and feels like a real Linux distro in a way no other game in this genre has managed, and the fake social network ecosystem around it has enough personality to actually feel lived in.
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There is a ton of potential here, it's by far the nicest interface I've seen in any hacking game, but the many current problems with the game unfortunately overshadow that.
