Bitburner PC Game 2021 review:
A terminal-based programming RPG with a dystopian flair. With or without programming experience, anyone interested in JavaScript will get their time’s worth here.
(Build 12847691 Update added)
After 5 years of development, and contributions from hundreds of developers, the critically acclaimed open source programming hacking sim is available on Steam.
Inspired by games like Else Heart.break(), Hacknet, Uplink, and Deus Ex, Bitburner is a programming-based idle incremental RPG where you, the player, take the role of an unknown hacker in a dark, dystopian world. The game provides a variety of mechanics and systems that can be changed through coding and solved or automated in whatever way you find suitable. While a very basic programming background is recommended, it is not required to play the game!
This game is far-and-away one of the most addicting games I’ve played in a long time. This game goes far beyond the simple gameplay mechanics of “type some command to hack the planet” or “beat some timer to open the door”. Instead, you will be challenged to create unique and efficient ways to problem solve (utilizing real JavaScript language scripting) that will reward you by augmenting your skills and stuffing your coffers–as well as honing your algorithmic prowess.
Pros of Bitburner:
- Write scripts in JavaScript to automate your gameplay
- Hack through a network of servers to train your abilities and earn money
- Solve real programming questions to hone your skills and earn rewards
- Improve your character with 100+ Augmentations
- Trade in the stock market and write automated trading scripts
