About The Calamity Trials

THE SCREEN

The screen will have everything you need to begin the trials. You will enter your mind in a world we create. You will feel and experience everything as if you're truly there. We won't be checking in too often since there are plenty of other subjects, but I can assure you that trying to leave the chair by force won't work. Little tip: don't stare at the screen too long since you'll be here awhile, for your sanity.

THE TRIALS

It's too late to turn back; you signed the papers, remember? The trials are what you chose over the death sentence. You'll be tasked to complete platform parkour featuring multiple unique weapons and obstacles. Reach the end goal before IT catches up to you. These weapons will either help you increase speed and further the gap from IT, or become another obstacle you must overcome. Being caught by IT or falling into the void will result in FAILURE. The only way to win is by reaching the LIGHT at the very end of the stage. I can't provide too much information on what we're preparing for until you complete the trials, but I will say you are not ready for what's to come.

THE KHRON

Khrons is a currency that allows you to unlock stages when you have the required amount. You receive 1000 khrons every stage completed. If you FAIL a stage, you will lose 100 khrons. This provides you 10 opportunities to complete a stage.

THE DOOR

Stages are still a work in progress, but we have plenty of time. Until we feel you are ready or have the required amount of khrons, the door remains CLOSED!

The Calamity Trials is a game that caught me off guard because it takes the idea of first person parkour and mixes it with horror in a pretty unusual way. The story starts with me being locked into a chair after choosing these trials instead of a death sentence, and I am then forced to enter a strange world through a screen. From there, I have to complete increasingly difficult parkour stages while something called IT chases me. I liked the strange setup because it gives the whole game an unsettling feeling before I even start worrying about the actual obstacles. The parkour is easily the main reason I enjoyed it. Each stage is built around reaching the light at the end while avoiding the void and staying ahead of IT. I have to jump across platforms, move quickly through obstacles and learn the layout through repeated attempts. The speed is what makes it satisfying when I finally get a difficult section right. A failed jump can send me back to the beginning, so learning the course and becoming more consistent is a big part of the experience. The weapons are a particularly interesting part of the design. They are not simply there to let me shoot enemies. Some weapons can actually …
