It's just another day of you, your trusty stream chat, and a nightmarish AI torture-testing you to see when you'll break. It was supposed to be simple. The Crab n' Grab, a trashy seafood restaurant a thousand miles from the sea. But your chat kept telling you to take a look. That something more is brewing underneath the surface. That there's something "there" there. And after all, isn't it your job to dive headfirst into danger? Isn't that the thrill? How thrilling do you find the skittering of ticker-taps of robotic legs on concrete? What about the voice coming over the loudspeaker? That's not a person. That's something else. And she's testing you. She wants to know how smart you are. How clever. How high your pain tolerance is. How much you can take before you break. Hello Cruel World puts your ingenuity to the test. Think fast, think on your feet, and think outside the box. Designed from the ground up to take advantage of VR's interactive capability, Hello Cruel World asks you: just how far are you willing to go?
