How it works

  • Climb from the bottom girder to the analyst he is holding at the top. That is the level.
  • Skulls roll down the girders and take the ladders. Each one is a real attack, with its tag on it.
  • Jump one for 100. Cut one down for 300. Either way you get its card — jumping one is a read too, and the card comes up as soon as you land.
  • Go and get a sword. There are two on the girders. Without one, all you can do is jump what is coming. With one, it swings on its own — live for a moment, then recovering — so what you time is your approach. Walk into a skull on the beat and you cut it down; walk in between beats and it gets you.
  • Every exploit you deal with shows its card — cut down or jumped — with what it is, how it works and what stops it. Press X when you have read it. Everything you have met also lives in the codex below.
  • Levels 1–2 are Security+ attacks, 3–4 are CySA+, 5 and up are SecurityX — and on the title screen you can press 1, 2 or 3 to start at whichever tier you are studying. Each level opens with a screen telling you which one you are in.
  • Two hundred attacks, in four rounds of fifty. Fill the codex for your round and the game hands you fifty completely new ones. Your progress is remembered on this device.
