Can you stop the world’s greatest hacker before time runs out? Nitr0 is the world’s greatest hacker, and early this morning a video was received at FBI Headquarters in Washington, D.C. Nitr0 informed the Bureau of his plan to release a virus that will drain 100 million United States bank accounts of over $75 billion. You are FBI Agent Alex Vargas, a fresh face in the Cyber Crime Unit. Fueled by optimism and a need for success, you determine that taking down Nitr0 would be the best way to climb the ladder to the top. You’ve received an anonymous lead that Nitr0 has been tracked to an apartment in Cambridge—when you get there you find out he’s setting you up and in one hour the FBI will trace everything back to you in this apartment. Can you find the code, kill the program, and escape before you have to go down for his crimes?

Would not recommend to really anyone. The design and art of the entire place is great, but the room design is lacking any connection to the story line. The room itself was very minimal and did little to connect to the story you're following. The puzzles and codes did not relate to each other making me feel like "how was I supposed to know that". Whole room screamed of very little effort and creativity, and definitely left a bad taste in my mouth after. I wish I had anything positive to say but for 80$ for 2 people, it was no where near worth what I've spent on other rooms with less funding. Staff didn't do much to make it better either, just kids that cared very little about the rooms. A real mood killer.

Gameplay

Not much of a story, introduction video did not have much effort into it.

Atmosphere

Basically nothing that related to the story, and everything just felt old and out of date.

Customer service

Just kids which is ok, but not really any passion to work.

Particularly interesting or different

No

Very simple design, very confusing "puzzles".

Story

Almost completely unrelated.

Difficulty

Hard

Not difficult from the puzzles, but from the lack of connection between the answers and the codes.

A neat room that is themed around a hacker in a college style dorm room. Similar to their newer version of The Code, which is called Cyber Heist. Overall, I think that one is better due to a more interesting set and puzzles. But both are indeed different with only a few similarities. Unfortunately, the final “puzzle” isn’t really much of a puzzle. And there are red herrings that ahem wasted my time… I overall had fun in both rooms, but Cyber Heist, which is like a 2.0 version is a worthy update.
