Double Agents is a local co-op hacking game where two players share one computer—and the consequences of every mistake. You’ve been recruited by the resistance to break into a database and retrieve the files they need. One player takes the mouse. The other takes the keyboard. You have three minutes.

As Agent 1, you work through the filesystem, clearing marked blocks while avoiding alerts that could expose you. As Agent 2, you use the terminal to crack passwords, scan suspicious files, shield your partner, and hack along with your partner. You’ll need to talk to each other. Neither agent can handle everything alone.

The database AI reacts to your intrusion. File labels disappear behind scrambled signals. Terminal commands become unreadable. Static can swallow the entire screen. When one agent loses access, the other has to get them back online—all while the timer keeps counting down.

Then there are the viruses. Some help you tear through the firewall. Others undo your progress or trigger another attack. Your partner can scan them to find out what they do, but that takes time. Whether you wait for an answer or risk a click is up to you.

Built around a green CRT interface, pixel portraits, and an original soundtrack that glitches along with your connection, Double Agents turns a single mouse and keyboard into a shared three-minute problem.

You’re just following orders. Don’t overthink it.
