Slavehack - protect your IP!
« on: January 29, 2010, 11:51:11 am »

www.slavehack.com

So I started playing this the other day and it's pretty fun. It's a multiplayer browser-based hacking game. Its also relativly simple, no knowledge of programming required.

Basically you connect to computers (not real ones of course, all comptuers in the game are virtual) steal files, upload backdoor programs or other malicious software, and use them to get money. Eventually you can hack into players bank accounts and use the money to upgrade your virtual computer and internet connection.

But beware, because if anyone gets your IP they are likely to get into your system, steal anything of value, delete the rest, and upload a virus. This means that you're going to want to erase your IP from the logfiles of any computer you access, and be vigilant in checking your own computers logs.

Worth a look if you like pvp games with consequences, as you can loose alot if you make mistakes. But you can always bounce back, just download all the software again and get back into it.

For some reason this is blocked where I work :( sounds interesting, like a multiplayer uplink.

Exactly my thoughts. Havent looked at it, so I wouldnt know if I should thank them for improving an already cool game, or if they just shamelessly ripped it off.

To be honest if all the did was shamelessly rip it off and add multi-player then I'd be okay with that. It's only when people rip off a game and make something worse that I get annoyed about it. (I mean what is the point)

They didn't. It's a good game in it's own way.
And the admins/developers are fucking awesome.
When I played before (also 2 years ago) I was cool with them. :3

God DAMN I love this game!

Nice! I hope my icecold uplink skills will help me to succeed in this game?

Or is getting rid of traces more complicated than just hacking that first routing server thingy wotsitsname and removing the entries ?

Also played it several years ago, when it was pretty new.

I stopped playing just before they added multiple downloads at once etc, heh...

Oh I remember this.  I loved collecting newbie IPs, hacking into them, and making it look like the other guys did it.

Is there a tutorial for this?

I have no idea how to progress, or really do anything productive.

Heh, me too. I did this thing:
I went into 8 different IP's, uploaded a virus to 3 of them.
in all places, I modified the logs to show one other IP.

about 20 minutes later I found that the guy who's IP I used had changed his IP.
