Enter a secret world of hackers in interactive fiction Mr. Robot:1.51exfilt0rati0n
Text adventure
Last week, we wrote about the upcoming title teased by Telltale and Night School Studio. Mr. Robot:1.51exfiltrati0n is that game, new interactive fiction set during the story during the first season of the popular show Mr. Robot, available now on iOS and Android.
Exfiltrati0n follows the familiar style of the popular Lifeline series, with its story of hackers and secret plans unfolding over text messages over time. You find a phone outside Coney Island and are dropped into the midst of the secret war between renegade hackers fsociety and corporate giant E-Corp.
This game expands on that formula with other conversations and messages from additional people and services, attachments that let you receive files and pictures, and a writing style that seems quite authentic down to the autocorrect typos.
Mr. Robot:1.51exfiltrati0n costs £2.29 / $2.99 on the App Store and Google Play. Cleverly, the game's title is different depending on the store, ending in .ipa on iOS and .apk on Android.
