"Hello, player. I want to play a game. For many years you've been playing games on Easy or Normal, thinking that you're great at video games as you blast through levels, missions - entire games, within a few hours. Well. I serve to prove that you are not who you think you are. Before you is a title screen. Should you begin playing this game, there is no turning back.

The device located around your wrists will eternally lock your controller or mouse and keyboard to you, binding you until you finish this game. Oh, and you can't just finish it once. The device is rigged to only release once you've defeated the game at an amount equal to your age.

Live as an insane husk or die a sobbing nerd.
The choice is yours."
