You jolt awake. A dim light above you shines in your eyes as you look around the room you are in. Rather empty and boring, but it reminds you of one of those interrogation rooms in the movies. Metal table, metal chairs, the mirror on the side of the room, and a door opposite of you. You glanced over at the mirror and suddenly felt as if you were being watched.

A sudden bang on the door makes you jump, and you realize you are chained to the chair you are in. You stare at the door, and the light above begins to flicker. Another bang, and you begin to hear some sort of... murmuring on the other side of the door. A few more seconds, and there’s another bang, and you watch as the doorknob turns, the door opening slowly.

Your heart begins beating faster as you crane your neck to see what’s on the other side, and your eyes go wide as a metal hand is placed on the doorframe. The door is pushed open the rest of the way, and you see the entire figure. Its metal body seems dented, yet is still functional enough to walk on it’s own. It steps through the doorway and you can see the entire body. Various wires and cables drape down its body, and you can see through it in some parts. The robot seems to be unfinished.

It fully enters the room and closes the door behind itself, and you jump again as it speaks out loud, its red eyes seemingly boring into your soul.

“Welcome, friend.” It says. “Welcome to Zero Escape. I hope you had a nice nap, as you’ll be taking another one shortly.” He glances back as the door opens again, and a man in a white lab coat enters with a metal rolling table. He rolls the table behind you, and you try to follow him, but you whip your head back in fear as the robot gets closer to you, putting its broken, metal hands on the table.

“My friend here will give you a sedative, which will give you certain... abilities...”

You hear a snicker behind you, and the robot smiles as well, which looks crooked and the same amount terrifying.

“These abilities will help you to play this game, which is rather simple.”

The man with the lab coat grabs your wrist and fastens a bracelet to it. It’s all black, and has a small screen on it.

“This bracelet is important, however, also deadly. It can inject poison into you, which can kill you within a minute. And don’t worry, it’ll hurt a lot. It keeps track of your BP, which brings us to our next topic.”

You feel a hand grab your head and soon feel a sharp prick in your neck. The needle. You wince in pain as it is pulled out, and the man nods to the robot, then glances at the mirror and leaves the room.

“You may remember the other employees that came into this... ‘program’ with you... well you’ll be going against them here. You’ll find the ones you can trust, and those you can’t. You can pair or go alone in the Ambidex game, allying or betraying against your friends. Get points based on your choice. Run out of points, and—“ he taps your wrist, where the bracelet is. Point taken. “But all that matters to you is your escape.”

Your head nods forward, and you blink your eyes open as you stare back up. It seems as if the robot had gotten closer. His face was close to yours, and you just had to look away from this red eyes. It was terrifying.

“Your friends are no longer your friends. It’s as simple as that. Whoever you think they were, they aren’t anymore.”

Your head lowers again, and you can’t bring yourself to open your eyes. You feel weaker by the second, and you hear the robot begin to mumble again. You can’t hear any last words he says, but then you can hear him faintly say only a few words that send chills up your back.

'''“Kill or be killed. It all starts now.”'''
