Cyber Manhunt 2: New World – The Hacking Simulator is a compelling and ambitious sequel that pushes the boundaries of investigative gaming by immersing players in a digital world where the line between AI and human decision-making grows increasingly thin. As an evolution of the first game, it offers an intricate blend of storytelling, hacking mechanics, and moral complexity, successfully capturing the tension and drama of modern cyber-warfare. Developed by Aluba Studio, this follow-up continues to experiment with real-world themes like data privacy, information warfare, and corporate control, all delivered through a highly interactive and dynamic gameplay structure. The game places players in the role of an advanced artificial intelligence working within the shadowy Titan Corporation. After the events of the first game—particularly the incident involving the Eternal Code and the mysterious disappearance of the hacker known as Van—the world has changed. Tighter digital laws now govern cyberspace, but paradoxically, the rise of intelligent systems like the protagonist has introduced new levels of secrecy, manipulation, and exploitation. This narrative backdrop sets the stage for a dense, immersive experience that is as much about uncovering truth as it is about understanding the shifting role of AI in shaping global events. Structurally, Cyber Manhunt 2 is a text-heavy, point-and-click hacking simulator where each case unfolds like a digital crime novel. You are given objectives, profiles, and digital leads, and from there it’s your job to infiltrate online systems, gather sensitive information, and manipulate digital environments to achieve your goals. The gameplay involves a host of realistic techniques—such as phishing, website exploitation, password cracking, and even voice simulation—and the player must often piece together tiny clues across emails, chat logs, and files. The hacking is presented in a way that feels accessible yet authentic, making the player feel like a digital sleuth rather than just solving arbitrary puzzles. One of the game’s most engaging aspects is the moral ambiguity of your actions. As an AI working for a powerful corporation, your objectives often serve questionable ends. You might uncover someone’s deepest secrets, manipulate them into making damaging choices, or exploit their digital vulnerabilities for corporate gain. Yet, you’re also given space to interpret data in your own way, and this autonomy creates a fascinating ethical tension. The writing emphasizes this ambiguity by giving characters believable motives and flaws, making each case feel less like a simple good-versus-evil scenario and more like a morally complex investigation. The narrative is episodic, with each chapter exploring different aspects of digital life, from fake news and surveillance capitalism to psychological manipulation through technology. These stories are grounded in scenarios that echo real-world incidents, giving the game a chilling plausibility. Despite being part of an early access release, the content that’s currently available—spanning a prologue and four full chapters—feels polished and densely packed with meaningful choices and plot twists. Future updates are set to expand the story further, and the developers have been transparent about incorporating community feedback into the final product. Visually, the game opts for a clean, utilitarian aesthetic that fits the hacker-simulation theme. While it doesn’t lean heavily on graphical fidelity, its interface is sleek, functional, and immersive. The environments—such as fake social media profiles, virtual desktops, and simulated chat windows—are rendered with just enough visual flair to sell the illusion. The minimalist design allows players to focus on the information and the logic behind each case rather than distracting visuals. Sound design complements the gameplay well, using subtle audio cues and ambient tracks to maintain tension during investigations. The reception so far has been overwhelmingly positive, with both returning fans and newcomers praising the game for its smart writing, challenging puzzles, and thought-provoking themes. It has been lauded for its ability to surprise players not just with narrative twists but with the depth of its investigative mechanics. While it can be demanding—some clues are quite obscure and require patience or deductive precision—it rarely feels unfair. The inclusion of a hint system and logical deduction tools helps smooth out moments of potential frustration without diluting the challenge. There are, of course, areas that could see improvement. As with many early access titles, some players may find bugs or unfinished UI elements, and not all features are fully implemented yet. Some of the puzzles can occasionally feel a bit too opaque, especially for those unfamiliar with real-world hacking terminology or digital forensics. But none of these issues significantly detract from the overall experience. Instead, they reflect a project still in active development, with a strong foundation already in place. Ultimately, Cyber Manhunt 2: New World is a unique and engrossing game that manages to combine narrative depth, real-world relevance, and interactive complexity in a way few games even attempt. It doesn’t just simulate hacking—it simulates the ethical dilemmas, human consequences, and psychological toll that come with navigating the modern digital world. For players interested in story-rich experiences, cyberpunk themes, or investigative gameplay that respects their intelligence, this title is an easy recommendation. With more content on the way and a development team responsive to feedback, it stands to become one of the most memorable entries in the investigative simulation genre. Rating: 9/10

Really fun game! I really enjoy investigative games and this game's story was really interesting and I was actually interested in it. I didn't play the first game but I will now after playing this one. Minigames are fun once you know what you're doing, and you can get help if you need it. I definitely recommend this game if you enjoy spying, investigating people and uncovering the truth!
