‘Root’ Brings Cyber Stealth Espionage to Steam This Month

Digital Tribe Games and Deep Fried Enterprises have emerged from the shadows to announce that ROOT, the cyber espionage themed stealth FPS, logs onto Steam and other digital distribution channels with a limited time 20% discount off of the $9.99 regular price. You’ll be able to log on and being monitoring your enemies when the game becomes available November 16th, 2015 on Windows PC, Mac and Linux.

In ROOT, you get to step into the inexpensive loafers of expert hacker Edward Summerton. Then, roll up your sleeves, pop your collar and brew a pot of coffee, because in this game you’re going to breach the networks of a mysterious and powerful corporation.

According to the game developers, during this undertaking of corporate crypto-espionage you will face many hostile programs, but your most dangerous enemy is the man who designed them. The Systems Administrator built the System from the ground up and holds immense power within the network. He will use the limitless resources at his disposal to prevent you from achieving your goal: total ROOT access to the System.
