How to Play

Welcome to the ROBCO Industries Terminal, a hacking mini-game inspired by Fallout's terminal system.

Objective
Find the correct password from a list of words before running out of attempts.


Controls

- Mouse: Hover over words and special patterns, click to select

- Click during intro: Skip the text reveal animation

- R key (Game Over): Restart the game


Gameplay

> Finding the Password

- Click on a word to attempt it as the password

- If wrong, you'll see the Likeness score: how many letters match the correct password in the same position

- Use this information to narrow down your choices

- You have 4 attempts (▢ ▢ ▢ ▢) before the terminal locks

> Special Patterns

- Look for special character patterns like '<>', '{}', '()', or '[]'

- Click them for a chance to:

  1. Remove a dud – Eliminate an incorrect password (80% chance)
  2. Restore attempts – Get your tries back (20% chance)

- Each pattern can only be used once

> Tips

- Pay attention to the Likeness score cause it's your key to finding the password

- Words with the same letters in the same positions will have the same Likeness

- Use special patterns strategically when you're running low on attempts
