User Reviews

Packet Hunter offers valuable hands-on networking labs that help users gain practical skills and exam confidence. However, persistent bugs—especially UI keypad issues blocking level progress, broken levels, and verification glitches—along with performance concerns, hamper the experience. Users also want more levels and continued content. Overall, strong learning value with stability issues needing fixes.

Pros

Hands-on, terminal-style labs that teach networking and packet analysis
Learners gain practical, real-world skills beyond theory
Unique content with potential for expansion into certification-focused material (Security+, CCNA)
Fun and engaging; challenges feel rewarding
Boosts confidence for CCNA exam prep

Cons

UI/keyboard minimization bug that blocks progress (e.g., level 2)
Level 19 is broken
Progression/verification bugs causing stuck levels
Performance issues: CPU heating / unoptimized
Desire for more levels / content updates

I’ve been using Packet Hunter for a bit and it’s actually helped me learn a lot about networking and packet analysis. Instead of just reading about concepts, you work through terminal-style labs and analyze packets to solve problems, which makes it way easier to understand how things actually work. The challenges can be tough sometimes, but that’s part of what makes it satisfying when you figure them out. It really feels like you’re learning real skills while playing. Definitely recommend it if you’re interested in cybersecurity or want a fun way to learn more about networking.

I dabbled with this game quite a bit on an old phone, when IOS 26 came out though I had to uninstall the game because you can’t get past level 2. You can’t minimize the keyboard to apply dns changes. I deleted the game in October of 25 and reinstalled in March of 26 and the issue still persists.
