Hacking: A Beginner's Guide

Hacking: A Beginner's Guide

Learn the way of the cracker, with your Defence Against the Dark Arts master, Professor Ben Everard

You're not being paranoid: hackers really are out to get you (and everyone else) and exploit you for profit. Cybercrime is already a huge problem. A survey for Get Safe Online Week (an initiative by Get Safe Online, a public/private partnership supported by the UK government) in 2014 found that over half of the people surveyed had been victims online. As more and more devices are connected to the internet, the problem is only going to get bigger.

Goblin Sword is a classic 2d indie scroller which is simple to play but hard to fully beat. It combines elements from various 2d games like Legend of zelda’s heart collection system, and Mario’s “star” collection system to provides several hours of gameplay when you’re looking for something fun that isn’t mentally taxing.

There isn’t much of a story to the game (the gist of it is there's an evil cursed sword called the Goblin sword and you need to destroy its master), and there aren’t many NPC characters that have much of an impact, but if action is enough for you to have fun with there’s plenty to find in Goblin Sword.

If you’re a recovering no-life gamer who’s finally found joy in having a real life and dont want to get sucked into a ridiculously addictive game STOP READING this feature right now. Because once you start playing Terraria it becomes so addictive you'll have to outright delete the game to stop your self from playing it in every free moment.

Terraria is Mine Craft meets Castlevania. There are so many things to do and the game is so expansive that I honestly don’t know how to fully describe it. But I'll try anyway. Terraria is set in a 2d world that looks very similar to Castlevania, but plays very similar to MineCraft.

When you start the game you’ll be asked to create a character and name your first world. Once you complete that your world will be randomly generated from scratch and you’ll be tossed into a grassy area with nothing but a copper sword, a copper pickaxe, a copper axe, and unlimited potential.

Let's dive in.
