HOW IT WORKS
1. HACK
Every level hides one computer. Start the download and the alarm goes off: NEXUS sends waves of enemies to stop you.
2. SURVIVE
Stay close to the computer and fight until the files are yours. Walk away and the download pauses.
3. FORGE
Bring the files to the Master PC and forge a weapon. Each one changes how you fight.
