Dear Journalist.
DROP, a fresh take on the Hacking genre with puzzle gameplay elements, will release on March 28th on Steam from MicroProse.
The simplistic controls give the player a false sense of ease but it’s deceptively elaborate, becoming rapidly more complex and fast-paced all the while being drawn in by the evocative electronic soundtrack.
DROP is a tense action-strategy hacking simulator experience testing players’ cunning, speed, and wits with its myriad of complex puzzles
Hack into networks, analyze the objectives, come up with a plan, and focus on executing it swiftly. Work against time, firewalls, and other nerve-racking hazards. Get the hell out quickly before alarms set off, do a clean job.
You are a promising hacker with huge ambitions, an empty bank account, and the burning desire to prove yourself. When your actions attract the attention of a notorious hacker group, The Swarm, life gets complicated – real quick.
Your world turns upside-down when simple jobs hurl you into a power struggle between The Swarm, different factions, and megacorporations that could decide the fate of the world’s fragmented networks.
To survive the world of DROP you will need respect, notoriety, and cold, hard cash to improve your gear. Face a wide variety of missions but remember: the higher the risk the higher the pay.
DROP is a game that needs you to think and act FAST. For this reason, gamepad and keyboard commands are few, and intuitive, and will quickly become second nature for an ambitious hacker.
The thrill of hacking and the cyberpunk backdrop of DROP is rendered through a minimalistic yet deeply evoking art style, accompanied by a soundtrack that will haunt you even when you are not playing.
