The System Administrator magazine is preparing a board game for release about how IT professionals confront each other for information on the local network. In a fight, Admin, Enikeyschik, Hacker and Insider will converge. Whose role went to each of the players - the participants have to find out.
We could not stand aside and rushed to the printing office of the journal "System Administrator", which, in fact, is the author of "Lokalki." And as it turned out, in time - they found the “holy of holies” - the production process of the game.

Game Description:
At the beginning of the game, only the role of the System Administrator is defined. The one who got it - builds a “local network” of “nodes”, which are both cards of other players and auxiliary cards. Each node consists of a random number "node". Players will have to "defend" their nodes and "attack" the opponents' nodes. In this they are helped by the “network protection” and “network attack” cards, respectively, as well as special cards. If there is not a single working “node” left on the player’s card, then his node is disabled and the player leaves.
The party lasts 20-25 minutes.
Children can play - from 10 years.
The number of players is 4-8 people.
The game ends if one of the following conditions is met:
- All Hackers and Insiders are disabled. System Administrator and Enikeyschik won;
