Hypnospace Outlaw offers to take a leap into the past, when humanity was just beginning to get acquainted with technology and the Internet. People hung out en masse on forums and created websites where they could communicate on various topics. Here, the player is entrusted with the role of moderator. He must ensure that there are no trespassers, suspicious messages or other obscene things here.

Essentially, in Hypnospace Outlaw, it is necessary to regulate content according to 5 main parameters: the presence of pornographic materials, trafficking in drugs and other illegal substances, copyright infringement, bullying other users or spreading viruses. If, while viewing correspondence, you can find information of this kind, you can safely use the opportunities provided and send the violators to a ban. Often, you need to do more than just scour the pages looking for 1 phrase. It is necessary to read the correspondence and look for confirmation of the violation. Over time, situations will become more complex, and you will have to resort to using additional programs. For example, finding hidden messages or primary data sources to verify existing information. The pages you visit are constantly updated. Active links appear there, as well as additional content, which in turn can complicate the task. The community will react differently to how a gamer moderates pages – scandalous materials or provocative pictures from unknown authors will appear. But, one way or another, this is part of the global gaming world, which is located in its own ecosystem.
