Access Denied is a computer hacking card game for 3 to 6 players. Each player controls and defends one sector of the Net while attempting to gain access to other sectors. You don't need a computer to play Access Denied!

Access Denied includes 63 cards, each with an action and a code. You can play a card for its action or use its code to try to hack into a sector. Each sector has 3 access levels: User, Oper, and Root. As you gain more and higher access levels, you can draw and hold more cards and take more actions. The first player to attain Root access to 3 different sectors wins.
