The idea is that as you watch the show, you watch for clues and the clues from the show go into the game and you solve puzzles etc. Mr Robot has an “Alternative Reality Game (ARG)” that has been part of the show from the start. We were very impressed with the efforts to keep the show grounded while still carrying on a strong hacking focused narrative. We worked out the legal parts of things (it’s legal to use Kali in media, we don’t care, but studios want that in writing), and starting in the 2nd season from time to time the production staff would reach out to us to ask us questions, have us provide them graphics, provide them with specific versions of Kali that were public on specific dates, and similar to keep the show accurate. While the 1st season was running, we were approached at BlackHat 2015 to give our permission to use Kali in the show. We had a relationship with Mr Robot, which started during the filming of the 2nd season. But it appears the mystery is over, the red tape has been removed, and we now wanted to take a moment to share it with everyone. But there is a little bit more that we have not talked about due to NDAs. Many of you may have known about the show Mr Robot and its unique connection to Kali Linux.
