|
||||
|
||||
**VM Challenges:**
|
||||
1. Network scanning (nmap) → `flag{network_scan_complete}`
|
||||
2. FTP banner grabbing (netcat) → `flag{ftp_intel_gathered}`
|
||||
3. HTTP analysis (curl + Base64) → `flag{pricing_intel_decoded}`
|
||||
4. distcc exploitation (Metasploit) → `flag{distcc_legacy_compromised}`
|
||||
|
||||
### Drop-Site Terminals
|
||||
|

**All rooms compliant:** ✅ 7/7
|
||||
|
||||
### Item Placement Compliance

|
||||
- ✅ All NPCs placed in usable space
|
||||
- ✅ All interactive objects in usable space
|
||||

||||
- ✅ All connections have ≥ 1 GU overlap
|
||||
- ✅ Door positions specified for all connections
|
||||
- ✅ Locked doors have unlock conditions
|
||||

## Design Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### Pacing
|
||||
|
||||
**Act 1 (Daytime - 15-25 min):**
|
||||
- Limited exploration: Reception, Hallway, Conference Room
|
||||
- Focus: Social interaction, RFID cloning, atmosphere establishment
|
||||
- Pacing: Calm, professional, building tension
|
||||
|
||||
**Act 2 (Nighttime - 30-40 min):**
|
||||
- Full exploration unlocked: Server room + optional areas
|
||||
- Focus: VM challenges, evidence gathering, stealth
|
||||
- Pacing: Tense infiltration, steady investigation rhythm, puzzle-solving
|
||||
- Hub-and-spoke: Server room as return point for decoding
|
||||
|
||||
**Act 3 (Climax - 10-15 min):**
|
||||
- Evidence synthesis, moral choices, confrontation
|
||||
- Focus: Narrative payoff, player agency
|
||||
- Pacing: Escalating tension, resolution
|
||||
|
||||
### Difficulty Curve
|
||||
|
||||
**Easy Start:**
|
||||
- Reception exploration (no challenges)
|
||||
- Victoria meeting (social interaction)
|
||||
- Founding year clue (plainly visible)
|
||||
|
||||
**Medium Progression:**
|
||||
- RFID cloning (new mechanic, 10-second window)
|
||||
- Guard stealth (pattern recognition)
|
||||
- VM port scanning (guided tutorial)
|
||||
|
||||
**Hard Challenges:**
|
||||
- distcc exploitation (advanced VM challenge)
|
||||
- Password finding (investigation required)
|
||||
- Hex/Base64 decoding (multi-step processes)
|
||||
|
||||
**Expert Optional:**
|
||||
- Double-encoded USB drive (Base64 → ROT13)
|
||||
- Perfect stealth (complete guard avoidance)
|
||||
- All LORE collection (requires thorough exploration)
|
||||
|
||||
### Atmosphere
|
||||
|
||||
**Daytime Corporate Facade:**
|
||||
- Professional, clean, well-lit
|
||||
- NPCs present (receptionist, Victoria)
|
||||
- Legitimate business appearance
|
||||
- Calm music, normal office sounds
|
||||
|
||||
**Nighttime Infiltration:**
|
||||
- Dark, emergency lighting, shadows
|
||||
- Empty spaces, single guard patrol
|
||||
- HVAC hum amplified, building settling sounds
|
||||
- Tension music, stealth audio cues
|
||||
- Same locations feel completely different
|
||||
|
||||
### Player Guidance
|
||||
|
||||
**Clear Objectives:**
|
||||
- Act 1: Meet Victoria (direct quest marker)
|
||||
- Act 2: Access server room (RFID door visual cue)
|
||||
- VM challenges: Drop-site terminal provides guidance
|
||||
|
||||
**Environmental Cues:**
|
||||
- RFID door: Visual indicator (locked, requires keycard)
|
||||
- Locked doors: Physical lock icon
|
||||
- Interactive objects: Highlight/examine prompts
|
||||
- Guard patrol: Audio cues (footsteps)
|
||||
|
||||
**Non-Linear Freedom:**
|
||||
- Server room accessible early (if RFID cloned)
|
||||
- Executive office optional (lockpicking path)
|
||||
- James's office entirely optional
|
||||
- Multiple solution paths (social engineering vs. stealth)
|
||||
