How it feels

A tense and experimental puzzle maze where players choose between collaboration and sabotage for a real-world reward.

What players say

Players are sharply divided: some call it a fascinating alternate reality game that demands reverse engineering and collaboration, while others say it is an endless, poorly designed maze with a punishing one-hour timer that erases all progress. Most agree the map is unusable and the in-game puzzles range from laughably easy to nonsensical without outside tools.
