Hackers is an exciting new adaptation, in the form of a video game, of methods used by hackers that includes all the mysticism and “dark” practices involved. Soon you’ll be on your way to becoming the best in the world, at least when it comes to penetrating other players’ cyber-defense mechanisms.

In Hackers, gameplay poses the challenge of attacking a series of virtual nodes. Each of them has a specific function, which is either mining B-coins (clearly a Bitcoin parody), running firewalls, or serving as a control node for an external network. Injecting malware into each node is the name of the game, until you manage to infect each of the machine’s elements.

Hackers hardly stems off from typical strategy games where you have to wait for a real-time response in order to view improvements or builds. Meanwhile sudden single attacks take place in real-time and last just a few minutes. All the resources needed in order to perform these infections are sold in-game with coins earned by playing which means that in order to evolve you’ll need to earn hacks to get credits that’ll ultimately improve your chance to win.

Most interestingly about this game is the international ranking boards that show who the best and most powerful hackers are, as well as the country with the highest overall hacking score. That being said, there’s no way to monitor or prove your own individual hacking skills and as such, the game is lacking a greater hook or story arch to keep things interesting.

Hackers is a 1995 American cybercrime thriller film directed by Iain Softley and starring Jonny Lee Miller, Angelina Jolie, Jesse Bradford, Matthew Lillard, Laurence Mason, and Fisher Stevens. The film follows a group of young hackers who are framed for a crime they did not commit and must race against time to clear their names and expose the real criminals.

The film begins with Dade Murphy (Miller), a young hacker known as "Zero Cool," who is framed for the theft of millions of dollars from a major corporation. Dade and his friends, Kate Libby (Jolie), Lord Nikon (Bradford), and Acid Burn (Lillard), are all members of a hacking group known as the "Elite Crew." Together, they must work together to clear their names and find the real criminals.

As the Elite Crew investigates, they uncover a vast conspiracy involving corporate espionage and government corruption. They are pursued by a ruthless Secret Service agent, Agent Richard Gill (Stevens), who is determined to stop them at all costs. The Elite Crew must use their hacking skills to stay one step ahead of Gill and his team, while also trying to uncover the truth behind the conspiracy.

Along the way, the Elite Crew encounters a variety of characters, including a mysterious hacker known as "The Phantom Phreak" (Mason) and a sympathetic computer programmer named Paul Cook (Stevens). With their help, the Elite Crew is able to piece together the puzzle and expose the real criminals.

In the end, the Elite Crew is able to clear their names and bring the real criminals to justice. They also learn the importance of using their hacking skills for good and the dangers of corporate greed and government corruption.

Hackers was a critical and commercial success, grossing over $7 million at the box office. The film has been praised for its realistic portrayal of hacking and its exploration of the ethical issues surrounding the use of technology. Hackers has also been credited with inspiring a new generation of hackers and cybersecurity professionals.
