I was hoping you all could take a look at the ruleset for a solo card- and dice-game I developed called HACKER: The Solo Game of Cracking Computers. Follow the link for a PDF of the current ruleset:
http://www.let-off.com/bgames/hacker/instructions%20-%20hacker.pdf
This is just the basic game. If you have any critique, concerns, or suggestions, please pass them along.
Thanks!

If I'm honest, I think the "hacking" theme seems quite superficial, and underneath it's just like Yahtzee - but instead of re-rolling dice to get them to make up a set, you manipulate them by playing cards instead.
It might still be fun, but I was just a little disappointed because my first quick glance led me to imagine something different (I had visions of building a complex computer program by laying down cards representing values / comparisons / / expressions / random number generators / etc).

That's okay if the theme doesn't "grab" ya. But the comparisons to Yahtzee are valid. This is a press your luck game, and yes you do manipulate your results for each roll with the "Apps" cards.
I received a fair amount of useful feedback on the ruleset so far, and am planning on revising it in the days to come. The PDF will be updated soon, and if the rules still make sense after that, please let me know. And if you've actually a chance to play it, that would be cool too.

Just letting you all know I've revised the rules (as of today) to streamline the experience and increase the "meaningful choice" factor for players.

Here are the Print & Play cards (on A4 paper for those overseas):

Anyone with some critique and feedback, feel free to post here or contact me via the methods described in the ruleset.
THANKS!
