Power On Again

Description
After a time of absence, the player returns home and is surprised by a gift from a friend; a gift in return for a favor he is asked to do right away.

Dive into this hacker adventure of mystery and deceit; can you find out what is true and save not only yourself, but possibly hundreds of innocents?

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

This is a solo project, built in 1 weekend, semi-rushed for the #HackerJAM competition.
I wish I had more time, but when working a fulltime job and having to take care of a chronically ill partner, time is scarce ;)
Also, I have only played the base game for about 2 hours before starting this Extension. It's therefore completely based on the base-game, no extension required.

I've spent a lot of hours on world building; the story is short, but there's a ton of details spread around. I really hope you like what I've tried to do here.

Special thanks to the folks on the Discord server for helping me find a couple of hardy bugs.

While doing the e-corp mission (download/delete) work, in order to find the backup server you need to decrypt the readme.dec file. But, I didn't have the decypher.exe program yet. Managed to grab it from the script and then continue.

Interesting and fun extension. Got both ends. Took a bit to get to good end, not much in hints on ways to go and when to run the prog, but doable.

Just finished it, that was a great extension thanks Acherrum. I loved all the poking around you had to do.
Great work!

Managed to solve it on my own... by looking at the mission's script. It's not made very clear that you need to submit BOTH passwords.

Having fun, but I'm stuck on the mission where you have to get the email password of the missing girl. I found it, no problem, but I don't know how I'm supposed to relay that to the person who contracted me. I tried putting it in the additional details of the reply email, and I made sure that it was correct multiple times. No idea what I'm expected to do. Any help?

Hey! Before I start, I want to say 11/10, good job!

And now, I was wondering, after 7 tries and 7 times pondering if I should kill myself or continue; I finally did everything but at the end after running ESequencer and having the Bulletin board changed and everything, is there anything else left to do? Like any credits thing or other stuff? Because it's stuck at the Sequencer running and, well, I received the e-mail from Jackson and that's it. I really hope that's the end because I've been hungry for like 13 hours or something now and I need some rest or pancakes to feel better. Thanks anyways!

Seems like it could be great. I accidently chose the wrong "first" mission and got stuck with no tools, but that was probably my fault

@Terran: Thanks a lot :) I thought I fixed that typo in the last patch though :P Guess not (yet) ;)
