Alice in the Firewall

In Alice // In the Firewall, you are plunged into the neon-lit mainframe of an Aegis Corp facility. Operating through your digital avatar, Alice, your job is simple: breach impenetrable security gates, override automated defense subroutines, and reconstruct the missing memory fragments buried deep within the grid to escape the lockdown.

Story
Just another high-stakes contract. Until the firewall locked the doors.
As a freelance net-hacker contracted by Aegis Corp, your job is simple: enter their massive, high-security server facilities and resolve the critical, high-level system failures that no one else can handle. You fix the impossible bugs, collect your fee, and leave.
But during a routine diagnostic inside a locked Aegis facility, a sudden lockdown seals you inside. Forced to jack directly into the core terminal to override the security protocols, you are pulled into a surreal digital landscape—a neon-lit firewall structured like a twisted cyber-Wonderland.
To escape the physical building, you must navigate through glitched system processes, solve intricate security ciphers, and unearth the hidden data files Aegis left behind—unraveling a dark truth about the corporation, the firewall, and your own forgotten past.

Gameplay
Override protocols. Decrypt the grid. Escape the facility.
