SYSCALL: RING ZERO

A fantastic collection of assembly language puzzles varying from replicating a data pattern ("scope"), reversing a password via reading algorithm code ("crack"), fixing code ("patch"), and writing your own code across multiple blocks & inputs to satisfy expected outputs ("worm"). It throws you right in, which can be disorienting at first. But, it has in-game documentation (and optional hints) to assist you with how the game and assembly coding works, once you figure out what it's trying to say (it reads like it's poorly translated, and I have no idea if that's intentional). Having a basic understanding of binary, assembly and/or programming in general definitely helps a lot! Despite that, I feel like this game is incredibly overlooked (seriously, how am I the first review?!). Once I got into it, I found it quite satisfying to solve the puzzles and move across the nodes. As of writing, I'm still going through the beginner puzzles (some of which are stupidly easy once you know how to play), but there's 200 or so puzzles so I'm looking forward to the challenges that await! [b]Also the entirety of this game is a single EXE that fits within 19 MB. That alone should tell you this game…

the game size is too big
