Overview
What is Uplink?
Uplink is akin to a more cerebral incarnation of Ambrosia's popular Escape Velocity series of games, with missions that interweave a threaded plot which is unveiled with each conquest.

You use the money you earn to upgrade your computer systems, and to buy new software and tools.
As your experience level increases you find more dangerous and profitable missions become available. You can speculate on a fully working stock market (and even influence its outcome). You can modify peoples academic or criminal records.
You can divert money from bank transfers into your own accounts. You can even take part in the construction of the most deadly computer virus ever designed.
