About This Game

THIS IS IT

Your one chance to leave the 9-to-5 behind and build a new life for yourself.

There's just one catch.

YOUR LIFE IS THE ENTRANCE FEE

You've been invited to a deadly game where opening loot cases is the only way to pay off a growing debt. Every case could contain the drop that earns your financial freedom... or leave you one step closer to a gruesome death.

WELCOME TO YOUR CELL

Intimidating at first, but you will quickly get the hang of it.

PICK A CASE to open and SLAM that GREEN BUTTON to start!
Now watch as your drops melt into BALANCE.
Or watch your BALANCE melt into the negatives.

Repeat.

Pay off your debts.

Get out before the ceiling of spikes crushes you.

Simple right?

:)

Well... about that...

LUCK ALONE WON'T SAVE YOU

Opening cases is only the beginning.

Managing your money is what keeps you alive.

Spend too much and you'll never recover.

Play too safely and you'll run out of time.

DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO WIN

Need better luck or bigger better odds?

Drink enough energy drinks to make a cardiologist cry. And send your mom into cardiac arrest.

Need more money?

Cases don't make enough?

Need motivation?

Our home-brew selection of 4 unique soundtracks are MADE to keep your blood pumping and your brain PULSING.

As the music intensifies the closer the spikes are to your head.

GO FLAT OUT. OR DIE CRYING!

Only those daring enough to risk it all will make it out of their cell.

So then, PLAYER.

THINK YOU CAN MAKE IT OUT?

In that case... good luck.
