Pitch
Hermit Computer is a horror-puzzle game set in 2001. Deep within the Hermit Kingdom, you play as an outsider tasked with extracting critical intelligence using a secretive, state-controlled computer operating system.

Description
Welcome to the Hermit Kingdom—an isolated country under brutal hardship. Here, you must operate a secure, government-controlled computer system to gather intelligence on the nation.

Overview
Hermit Computer is a horror-puzzle experience set in the depths of a secretive hermit kingdom. You play as an American operative captured while covertly gathering intelligence on the government.

Now imprisoned in a high-security facility, your only tool is a restricted, state-run computer system. Use it to uncover hidden secrets, navigate censored networks, and attempt to contact the U.S. Embassy—all while avoiding detection by patrolling guards.

There Are Ears Everywhere
Be careful not to make too much noise—there are ears everywhere in the Hermit Kingdom.

Gather Intel
Find and document every secret hidden within the computer system.

Crack the Puzzle
Don’t be deterred by passwords. Keep digging.
