Synopsis
When a mysterious USB drive lands on your desk, curiosity becomes a curse. You must find six hidden hashes across dark web sites, decrypt them, and infiltrate the vault of Killbyte, a clandestine snuff marketplace. But not all clues are real, and not all adversaries are human.


As you dig deeper, four terrifying antagonists – The Hitman, SWAT, Dan, and Maria – begin to hunt, mislead, and manipulate you in real time. Every action becomes part of their twisted broadcast.
 

Antagonists You’ll Never Escape
 
  • The Hitman – Enters if you leave your entrance unsecured.
  • – Raids when you accumulate too many unreported anomalies.
  • Dan (Rooftop) – Tests your patience and nerve. Move too soon and you lose.
  • Maria (Elevator) – Wants proximity. Get close, let her catch you, then escape her choke.

Each threat follows strict behavioral logic that can be learned and countered – but one mistake can cost you everything.

Key Features
  • Dark Web Exploration – Browse simulated illicit sites to find hidden data and clues.
  • Forensic Viewing Tools – Scrub video frames, metadata, and audio to uncover secrets.
  • Fictional Crypto Wallet – Pay for access, memberships, and digital tools.
  • Drone Router Drops – Refresh your setup and avoid being traced.
  • Anomaly Reporting System – Keep CCTV feeds clean or risk a SWAT raid.
  • Active Threat AI – Learn, adapt, and counter each unique enemy.
  • Original OST and Live Action Integration – Real performances combined with in-engine horror.

A Digital Nightmare Rooted in Logic
 
Every puzzle in Netbreak™ rewards logic and precision. From analyzing snuff clips to maintaining your wireless network, success depends on how you think, not how fast you react.
