What is Blacklash?

"BlackLash (1998) is a modification of the 1995 videogame MacAttack, in which players fought off attacking computer viruses in order to disinfect cyberspace. Created by UK artist collective Mongrel, the modded version brought the urban street to the game's sterile "information superhighway" aesthetics, replacing its original protagonist with a black character who fights off KKK members, agents of the state, and Nazis."

Note: though this is advertised as a demo, to my knowledge there was no mod of the full game released. This is likely due to the huge copyright infringement this would have caused.
