A couple of years ago, I went to a PR's office to demo a battle royale game that looked like RuneScape and played like Magic: the Gathering—Inferni: Hope & Fear. I had an absolute blast, but I didn't hear anything more about the game. Now, it's been reborn. Hack '95 takes the bones of Inferni's real-time combat and drapes a Windows 95 skin over the muscle and sinew of a story about hacking an evil corporation.
Hack '95 just got its world premiere reveal trailer during the PC Gaming Show, and it really doesn't get more PC than this. In Hack '95, you take on the role of a '90s hacker who gets swept up in a huge governmental conspiracy. All you wanted to do was make a few bucks changing grades for high school kids, but after the death of one of your hacker buds, a legendary cybercriminal takes you under their wing—the writing was done by videogame journalist and novelist Keith Stuart.
