Growing up, I was pretty involved with my local BBS, and came to enjoy a number of BBS games, including Lords of Cyberspace (LoC). Searching for more information on-line produced almost no results, so I decided I should post all the information I have for anyone else interested in this game.
In Lords of Cyberspace, you play a hacker attempting to cause as much destruction to network infrastructure as you can. This is done by running a variety of programs to break into systems, destroy the defense programs, steal valuable programs/documents, etc. I've tried to make a catalog of those programs and strategies with which I am familiar.
This site is not a comprehensive walkthrough (yet!), but I hope it does aid in your adventure!
