Welcome to the cold, disconnected future!
There is no public network here. All organizations, companies, and communities have built their digital fortresses to protect their data from everyone else.
You are trying to prove yourself as a hacker in this world.
It's dangerous, but you can succeed if you get them what they need.
You undertake DROPs: connect to local terminals with your cyberdeck, break into networks, download valuable information, install spyware, or support physical intrusions from the background.
And if you're smart, you'll disappear without leaving a trace.
But you have to hurry because you only have five minutes before you get caught.
That's what every single Drop is about.
It is about the constant danger.
But if you skillfully maneuver in this game, you can achieve anything.
Drop is a unique hacker simulator. It combines some aspects of action and strategy games, reflex games, and puzzle games to reproduce the classic cyberpunk genre's fast-paced and spectacular hacking scenes.
Success requires speed, intuition, a sense of strategy, and intense player knowledge.
But if you've built the right deck from the hardware and software you have and have a feel for the flow, you'll feel like a real big shot.
You will explore the network, run programs, and zigzag between attacks from enemy systems as the clock ticks to zero.
As your firewall slowly crumbles and the screeching of your deck's distress signal tries to make you see better, you still want to get to the end of something.
You still need those last few bits of data before they reveal your position.
If you're outstanding, you can do it.
Again, and again, and again.
