Story
You are an employee at a black company that is about to fire staff. Fortunately, your company gives you a chance to participate in a game show broadcast live to audiences around the world... You need to eliminate all of your colleagues so that you can keep your position in the company.
Mechanics
In this game, you need to — and want to — press the button. As you press the button, you raise the bar for others. As they press more, they get closer to their redline.
But there is a catch… you don't know your own redline...
In the end, you need to talk to colleagues to get information while trying to deceive them about what they should know.
While you can only press the button, you must NOT GET FIRED....
