File Hoard description

File Hoard

Remember dial-up? The satisfying crawl of a progress bar and the thrill of finally completing a download? File Hoard recreates that nostalgia and then pushes it into chaotic, overclocked territory. Build a growing archive of bytes through a blend of idle progression and active tapping, where every click matters and every generator matters more.

The core drive is powered by 15 Generators that range from humble cursors to botnets, from undersea cables to the moment you become the internet itself. Each generator passively downloads bytes for you, turning time into treasure while you choose how hands-on you want to be.

The game features a Prestige System: when your hard drive fills up, archive everything to tape. Tapes grant permanent bonuses that persist across playthroughs, so you can start fresh but stronger each time you ascend the stack of storage and memories.

Random Events and Challenges keep the chaos alive: your mom might pick up the phone, your ISP may be “performing maintenance,” and you’ll face quirky, time-limited scenarios. Complete click challenges to earn speed boosts as the internet itself throws curveballs your way.

File Hoard blends Idle and Active Play. You can click frantically to speed things up, or step back and let your generators do the heavy lifting. It’s your call, and the balance can shift as your hoard grows larger and faster.

Retro Aesthetic drives the experience with CRT scanlines, chunky progress bars, and pure dial-up nostalgia. The visuals are designed to immerse you in the era while the mechanics push you toward modern, satisfying loops.

Steam Cloud support ensures your hoard syncs across devices, letting you pick up where you left off on another machine without losing progress.

What You’ll Do
  • Download files and watch your collection grow.
  • Buy cursors to automate clicks and speed up production.
  • Steal your neighbor’s WiFi and power up your network empire.
  • Build a botnet for science and efficiency, then optimize performance.
  • Tap into undersea cables to expand your reach beyond the surface.
  • Eventually aim to become the internet itself.

What You Won’t Do: No solving the mystery of why you’re downloading—focus on the hoard, the optimization, and the chaos of connection.
