NETRUNNER // BREACH PROTOCOL

WELCOME TO THE NET

You are a netrunner — a hacker who dives into corporate networks and breaches ICE (Intrusion Countermeasures Electronics) to extract data.

This is a breach protocol simulator. Every operation begins with a code matrix. Your job is to assemble the right sequence before time runs out.

Ready to jack in?

THE MATRIX

In front of you is a grid of hexadecimal codes: 1C, 55, BD, E9...

First move: any cell in the highlighted row.
After that, only the column of your last pick is available.
Then a row again. Then a column. It alternates every move — like a rook in chess.

Think ahead. Every pick locks your next direction.

ICE DAEMONS

On the right: breach sequences, each guarded by a named ICE daemon like CERBERUS-7 or HELLHOUND-ALPHA.

To breach a daemon, feed its codes into the buffer in order. You can chain sequences — close two daemons with one path — and that is the key skill.

The cell with a green highlight is the next code you need.

DANGER ZONES

Orange cells are ICE traps — clicking one eats a buffer slot and steals 5 seconds.

Red cells are ICE blocks — frozen by the daemon for good.

On high difficulty, daemons actively block cells while you're in the matrix. The net fights back.

IMPLANTS & PROGRESSION

Every breach earns XP. Level up and unlock implants for real gameplay edges — extra buffer slots, trap detection, time bonuses and more.

Complete achievements, explore the Night City operations map and build out your dossier.
