▍Enter the Grid
The Spindle never sleeps.
Jack in, slip the Wards, lift the data, and get out before the trace flatlines you. USERLAND is an original cyberpunk text MMORPG — netrunners breaching virtual systems on the Grid. No physical combat. One verb: hacking.
Bandwidth
Energy / daily activity gate. Regenerates over real time.
Heat / Trace
Risk. Rises with aggressive hacking, cools over time.
Flatline
Lockout. A completed trace or black ICE locks you out.
Integrity
Humanity. Chrome lowers it; bioware preserves it.
