Chronos 1 is a terminal escape room, through the history of computer, from Unix V6 to modern Linux and known exploits.
Chronos 2 is a chase across real cyberwarfare, the 2016 Bangladesh bank heist, Moonlignt Maze, the Ukraine grid attack, Stuxnet and plenty more.
I spent about 2 months writing Chronos 2, looking for feedback, especially dialing the difficulty and the hint level.
