Summary
There are 70+ missions, with hidden plots and references to real life websites and events. Players are directly involved in global schemes that unfold throughout the world of Hackers. Not all must be completed to continue, but discarding certain missions may prevent subsequent offers from the contact who requested it. Missions count towards daily challenges.
Completing Missions
Mission details can be seen in the summary box at the bottom of the screen, including: the mission name, location, contact, time of request, explanatory message, and the rewards granted for completing it. Upon connecting to a target, additional Resources stored on the network will be displayed like with any other hack, along with specific mission requirements which must be met to complete it. These will be "Download the Core", "Download the Core in Stealth", "Capture All Nodes", "Loot All Resources", or a combination of these.
If an attempt is made by either installing a program or the timer running down, a hack summary showing either "Mission Completed" or "Mission Failed" will display upon disconnecting. Failing a mission will have no effects beyond the loss of any programs used in the attempt, except that looted resources will remain acquired and will not replenish in the network. Completing a mission will grant any listed rewards, and may cause a related news blurb or a response from the contact to appear.
Game Progression
Certain undisclosed requirements must be met before a mission will become available, such as reaching a specific amount of reputation, allowing set length of time to pass, or completing a previous mission.
Multiple missions can appear at the same time, sometimes from the same contact. Missions can be discarded by pressing the "X" button in the summary box. This may influence the appearance of subsequent missions. Some missions are exclusive of others, and will disappear or never show up depending on other completed missions. These choices have consequences, from changing the news to adjusting mission progression to gaining extra rewards.
Training Missions
Training Missions are acquired when you finish developing a new Program using the Evolver. Each Mission can only be completed once. If a Mission does not appear on the World Map straight away, reselect the network and click the World Map again.
Training: Shuriken
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The Shuriken training program is available now on the World Map."

Training: ICE Wall
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The ICE Wall training program is available now on the World Map."
- During Mission - "When a network defense is too strong, use the ICE Wall program to protect your nodes. Every instance of the ICE Wall gives you an extra firewall displayed on a node by an animated indicator. When its firewall is used, an ICE Wall instance is deleted."
Training: Protector
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The Protector training program is available now on the World Map."
- During Mission - "Similar to the ICE Wall program, the Protector provides an extra firewall to nodes under your control. It takes longer to install the Protector but its firewall is much more resilient because it regenerates over time. Use the Protector when you need to hold a node for a long time against a strong security defense."
Training: Data Leech
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The Data Leech training program is available now on the World Map."
- During Mission - "Sometimes there is not enough time to download everything you want. Use your Data Leech programs to download the Core Database before the Sentry takes control. Data Leech programs may be used to download money or B-coins as well."

- During Mission - "A blaster is a program with two functions. It is very strong compared to the Shuriken program or Beam Cannon, and it freezes any node it hits. Freezing nodes can be useful to stop Sentries from spreading or to weaken a strong point."
Training: Access
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The Access training program is available now on the World Map."
- During Mission - "Access is the basic program for stealth hacking. Installing it doesn't alert the network immediately, but a stealth bar will appear on the bottom of the screen instead. While the bar is being filled the network is searching for your activity. Once the bar is full, you are detected, the stealth is broken and all network securities are alerted. Stealthing around Scanner nodes speeds up the detection. A Scanner sees stealth activity happening up to three steps from it. When you reach the Core, download the Core Database with Data Leech programs." If the visibility bar reaches 3600, the message "You have been detected! Disconnect and try again." is displayed.
Training: Shocker
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The Shocker training program is available now on the World Map."
- During Mission - "The Shocker was designed to overload security nodes with data and freeze them for a while. Use of the Shocker allows you to breach the network defense."
Training: Kraken
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The Kraken training program is available now on the World Map."
- During Mission - "The Kraken can be installed only on netConnection nodes from where it spreads its tentacles heading straight towards the Core. There can only be one instance of the Kraken on the netConnection, but if more tentacles meet each other their Strength adds up while all of them fit in one program slot. Any tentacle can be chopped off by network securities, occasionally you will need to protect it."
Training: Wraith
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The Wraith training program is available now on the World Map."
- During Mission - "The Wraith program can disable any node until the end of the hack. Installing Wraith on a Code Gate first will shorten the time Access needs to be installed on the Code Gate. Use Wraith on the rest of the securities to clear the path for Worms."
Training: Portal
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The Portal training program is available now on the World Map."
- During Mission - "Portal is a powerful tool for opening a new network entrance for your non-stealth programs. Use Access to avoid the securities and install the Portal on the Core directly. You will be able to drop your brute-force programs in the Core then."
Training: Maniac
Summary:
- Mission Info - "The Maniac training program is available now on the World Map."
