Crypto!
Released Jan 1, 1994
Crypto is a puzzle game released on PC in 1994. Recent coverage of the title has centered on criminal activity rather than gameplay: a 21-year-old Florida resident was arrested for allegedly distributing malware through Steam games that stole cryptocurrency from users' wallets, while a former FBI agent separately confessed to stealing over a million dollars in crypto and consulting ChatGPT about evading detection. The agent later voluntarily contacted the Justice Department and admitted to the theft. Neither incident appears directly connected to the game's design or community, but rather reflects broader security concerns affecting the cryptocurrency space.
