What is Cyberpunk?

Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

Cyberpunk characteristics include:

Dystopian city setting where mega-corporations rule
Full integration of technology into society, featuring cybernetic implants
Outsider protagonists (punks) who often are very familiar with the technology around them
Hard boiled detective and film noir vibes and influence
Themes dabbling in trans-humanism, existentialism, and what it means to be human.

Drop - System Breach is a hacking game like Hacknet or Uplink but rather than typing out fake hacking commands, Drop can be played with a controller (like on Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch).

The entire game is basically highlighting a box and hitting one button to hack it. But it gets extremely hectic as the game goes on because it gives you more and more things to worry about. Like you have to keep your firewall's health high while also clearing the network's log server to prevent it from detecting you. By the end of the game, you have like 6 progress bars you have to manage to avoid a getting a game over. It sounds simple but it's actually really fun. I recommend it!
