Description official description

The gritty visuals make you feel like you're uneasily sitting through trailers for snuff movies... a few ominous disclaimers later, and you arrive at the meat of the gameplay: dragging a ball through a maze with your mouse without touching its narrow walls... all while another ball follows in slow but irrevocable pursuit. Suddenly as you brush a sharp corner you jump in your seat as a squeal tears through your headphones, the other ball jogged into swift pursuit! Swallowing a lump in your throat, you try to reassure yourself that the game's threat to interfere with your computer's file system was just a joke...wasn't it? Perhaps there's a reason this executable was forbidden...
