ANTI-VIRUS

Description

Something is loose on the network. Build a cyber-security firm from one
intern to a planet-spanning SOC and hunt down every virus on it.
ANTI-VIRUS is an idle game built for the long haul. Hire twenty kinds of
security staff, deploy twenty kinds of network appliances, and build your
own computers from real parts — match the CPU socket, match the memory
standard, cover the wattage — then rack them in a growing datacenter. Ten
families of computer viruses each shrug off different kinds of damage, APT
bosses arrive on a thirty-second clock, legendary malware specimens drop for
your Quarantine Vault, and when you hit a wall you sell the company for
Reputation and come back stronger. A searchable in-game handbook (press H)
explains every system.

In-game purchases: an optional shop sells permanent convenience items for
Kreds (automation, extra contract slot, longer offline time, themes, a
founder’s badge). Nothing sold increases damage; the game is fully playable
for free.
Target age rating: Everyone (all ages). Abstract computer-virus combat with
no blood or gore, no strong language, no gambling, no chat or user-generated
content.
AI declaration: the game’s code, balance simulation and in-game text were
written with the help of an AI assistant, directed and play-tested by the
developer. No AI-generated art assets are used; all graphics are drawn
procedurally in code and sound is synthesised.
