Navigate directories and inspect files to uncover the secrets of the Centurion and her crew.

Talk to other characters in the Perseus system to finish quests and help with your missions to avert impending crisis. What you're getting: 24 episodes of learning and narrative content to teach you Linux-fu and have immersive fun while you're doing it.
Instruction and practice in important Linux commands like sed, grep, and awk.
Hands on experience with common tools like ssh, scp, and rsync as you explore the Centurion's systems and interact with other ships
