Access Denied 2018

You are part of a team of three elite Infiltrator Agents, tasked by your shadowy employers with infiltrating the Advanced Cyber-Dynamics (ACD) Corporation complex, and stealing as much industrial technology data as possible. ACD is world leader in robotics technology, and their precious technical data is locked in computer terminals and protected by firewalls (anti-hacking protection). The more data you steal, the more credits your team will be paid. Credits are also stored in corporate safes, and cracking these open will boost your pay. How far will you push your luck?

Objective Steal as much data and credits as possible before the game ends. The game ends when either: (1) all 5 data terminals have been hacked – you win the game, or (2) all 3 Agents have been arrested – you lose the game. Stealing credits from safes is optional, but doing so will increase your score. Win or lose, the total credits earned by your team determines your score when the game ends.
