There are also a number of graphics glitches sometimes text has a tendancy to keep drawing itself over and over, cascading down your screen like an ascii waterfall. There's no longer anything new to experience by now, since you've "done it all". Annoying, but it seems to do the trick.Īlso, while it's great fun playing this game for the first time, once you reach the point where all missions are unlocked, the game suddenly runs out of steam.
While it hasn't been fixed yet, a good workaround is to always start a mission where the time has no leading zeros. Since this doesn't match the "12:05" that it's looking for, this causes all kinds of problems with particular missions. When the AI encounters a log entry with a timestamp of "12:05", for example, it parses it as "12:5". Without going into spoilers, they all involve missions where you need to purposefully leave logfiles behind. There are also a few mission types that are bugged, with regard to logfile timestamps. Once you reach a certain Uplink level (probably Grade 6), you have access to all mission types, even though Grade 1 is the highest Uplink rating.

There are a number of patches available before even creating a new character, one should always snag the latest patch from Introversion.Īlso, there comes a point where there are no more missions. Unfortunately, the shipped version is extremely buggy. Luckily, the fan community has probably come up with one or two tools to streamline this process. You can even create your own LANs, although there is no Introversion-supplied tool for doing this you've got to open up a text editor. The latest patch, code-named "Nakatomi", not only fixed a number of bugs, but also added LANs to the game world, which are a completely new mechanic. This forces you to think a little bit about each hacking job you do. And if you manage to hack a system, another random Uplink agent is employed to track you down, so always cover your tracks. They take missions and hack systems, just like you do. Uplink Corporation doesn't just employ you they have a large number of computer-controlled agents at their disposal. You've got to figure those out on your own. There are also a small handful of "secret" missions, totally unrelated to the storyline itself. Or not follow, if you prefer, it's up to you. These appear after a certain amount of time has passed within the game, and there are two "story branches" you can follow. In addition to the randomly-generated missions, there are also "storyline" missions. There are a number of other things you can do on your own, but they all involve spoilers, so I won't list them here. Don't like a particular company? Hack their mainframe and shut it down. The game is freeform you can do your own hacks. And, of course, there are always faster and more powerful versions of your software.īut you aren't just limited to the missions being offered.

Pretty solid concept for a game.Īs you make money, you can upgrade your Gateway computer - purchasing additional memory, processors, or just replace the entire thing with a slicker model. You get hacking missions from Uplink's BBS, and as you complete missions, your Uplink rating goes up, which unlocks even more complex, higher-paying missions, and so on and so forth.
Your character (who you never actually see directly) starts off as a lowly newbie. There's not much need to talk about the interface further, because it's so minimalistic. The interface is intuative you've got something resembling a "Start" button to launch programs from, a window on the right corner of the screen for emails and other updates, and a center window where all the action happens.

The entire game is designed to look like Windows Of The Future(tm). Introversion took a big chance with this game, and it seems to have paid off. You don't see too many of those, nowadays. Uplink is one of those rare, unique games, that isn't a first-person shooter, or a realtime strategy game, or a sim.
