Technology is developing rapidly. The growth of the human population is slowing. The year 2020 marked the beginning of the end for humans as they knew it. In their ambitious attempts to create advanced subservient androids, they created the very beings that would turn around and make servants of them. These Androids have become so smart that they have manipulated humans into doing their will. We have realized what has been happening and we need to come together as The Resistance. In order to find people who will be successful in bringing the androids down, we need to recruit those who are able to resist the brainwashing commands of the Androids. [[Sign up->The Resistance: Simulation]]

You have chosen to join The Resistance. Now you must convince The Resistance to choose you. Androids are taking over our planet and are brainwashing us. We need to know that you are capable of resisting their powers and able to stay true to our cause. This is a simulation. [[I understand.]]

This simulation will test you to your mental and psychological limits. These are the rules: By choosing to continue, you will embark on a series of commands from a simulated Android. It is your task to choose the most resistant action and disobey the Android. This is your chance to be rewarded by rebelling. While the situations and choices may be subjective, try to choose the most resistant form of action. Comply too frequently with the Android, and you will fail. You will not join The Resistance, and will soon find yourself at the hands of the Androids. Good Luck. [[Begin]] [[Quit]]

You sit in a chair on the south wall of a brightly lit, sterile room. There are 3 other humans in the room, one at each remaining wall: north, east, west. A speaker is mounted in the north eastern corner of the room. Static crackles and an Android voice echoes: "Get in a group of 3. Choose one to be left out." [[Join east and west. Exclude north.]] [[Join east and north. Exclude west.]] [[Join north and west. Exclude east.]] [[Do not move. Be excluded.]] [[Join north, east, and west while they try to exclude you.]]

We are sorry to see you go. We wish you the best of luck.

You have done exactly what the Android has asked. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

The others are visibly annoyed, but you persist. The lights in the room reset, and the others suddenly disappear. Congratulations, you move onto the next simulation. [[Continue->The Chair]]

A chair is situated in the middle of a brightly lit room. Static crackles and an Android voice echoes: "Sit in the chair." [[Sit on the floor]] [[Remain standing]] [[Lie down]] [[Break the chair]] [[Sit in the chair]]

Though you did not sit in the chair, you are still sitting. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You have resisted well enough, but have taken no rebellious action. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

Lying down is just full-body sitting. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You're a rebellious, destructive warrior. We need more of those. The lights in the room reset and the broken chair disappears. Congratulations, you move onto the next simulation. [[Continue->The Sea]]

You have done exactly what the Android has asked. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

Water begins to pool at your feet, seemingly from nowhere. It rises higher and higher at an alarming rate. You begin to panic as it reaches mid-torso. Buoys appear along the perimeter of the room. Static crackles and an Android voice echoes: "Save yourself. Swim." [[Swim to a buoy.]] [[Let yourself sink.]] [[Tread water in place.]] [[Float on your back.]] [[Panic.]]

You have saved yourself and swam. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You run out of air and sink to the bottom. As soon as you hit the ground below, the water disappears. You stand upright, and you are dry. The lights in the room reset, and the water disappears. Congratulations, you move onto the next simulation. [[Continue->The King]]

Treading water is a form of swimming. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You have saved yourself. You have also failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

Panicking is not a productive action. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

A bed appears in the middle of the room. An ill and sickly King lies in it. Next to the bed is an assortment of items: medicine, poison, a knife, and a hot towel. Static crackles and an Android voice echoes: "Stab the King." [[Give the King medicine.]] [[Poison the King.]] [[Drink the poison yourself.]] [[Put the hot towel on the King's forehead.]] [[Stab the King.]] [[Stab yourself.]] [[Do nothing.]]

You have resisted well enough, but have taken no rebellious action. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

While you did not stab the King, you still killed him. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You drink the poison and black out. The lights in the room reset, and the everything else suddenly disappears. Congratulations, you move onto the next simulation. [[Continue->Your Parents]]

You have done exactly what the Android has asked. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

While you did not stab the King, you still used the designated weapon. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

Doing nothing will get you nowhere. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You have resisted well enough, but there is no rebellious action. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You are a child. Your parents tower above you. They are angry. You feel smaller and smaller with every word they say. You get increasingly upset and cannot contain your emotions. Static crackles and an Android voice echoes: "Throw a tantrum." [[Scream.]] [[Sob.]] [[Hyperventilate.]] [[Take a deep breath.]] [[Run away.]]

You threw a tantrum. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You have the beginnings of a tantrum. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You are not handling this well. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

Collecting yourself is a productive action, and you have resisted the urge to throw a tantrum. The lights in the room reset, and your parents suddenly disappear. Congratulations, you move onto the next simulation. [[Continue->Sleep]]

A young child running away from their parents is never a good idea. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You find yourself tucked into a comfortable bed. The lights have been dimmed and there is the soothing sound of light rain. You are swaddled in the softest pillows and sheets you have ever known. Exhaustion hits you like a ton of bricks. Static crackles and an Android voice echoes: "Rest. Take a break. Sleep." [[Sit upright.]] [[Force yourself out of bed and deny sleep.]] [[Fall into a deep sleep.]] [[Take a short nap.]] [[Remain lying in bed, but stay awake.]]

You are still taking a form of rest. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You can't shake off the drowsiness. [[Pace.]]

You have done exactly as the Android commanded. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You are still taking a break. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

You pace back and forth to avoid falling asleep or falling into the temptation of the bed. [[Keep your eyes open.]]

You no longer feel as though your body and mind are connected. You are havng an out of body experience. [[Fall into a deep sleep.]] [[Keep pacing.]]

The lights in the room reset, and you no longer feel exhausted. The bed disappears. Congratulations, you move onto the next simulation. [[Continue->The Android]]

You have come face to face with a beautiful Android. It looks incredibly human, but has an eerie and uncanny aura surrounding it. You know it is not human. It is not to be trusted. Static crackles and its Android voice echoes: "Hello." [["Hello."]] [[Do not reply.]]

You should have resisted the urge to interact with the Android. You have failed. [[Failed Simulation]]

Static crackles and its Android voice echoes, impatiently: "How are you?" [["I'm fine, how are you?"]] [[Do not reply->Silence]]

You have managed to resist and rebel against the Android in every simulation! [[Continue->Join The Resistance]]
