Perfumed Palaces: Purgatory Simulator

On July 12th 2025, the urban explorer known online as "hueyfreeman99" posted a video to his Youtube channel titled BENSEN RIO BLAIR HOUSE in which he spends 14 minutes approaching and then investigating the strange, 3-story bungalow located over 3 miles by foot from the nearest road. 

Amongst the abandoned refuse which included cracked plastic TV Dinner boxes, forgotten toys, torn children's clothing, televisions with the power cords cut, various damaged 6th gen game consoles, drug paraphernalia, secondhand furniture and old newspapers stained with human waste, he found a mini-DVD inside of an unlabeled Gamecube game case. At the end of his video, he included footage of the decompiled and heavily corrupted contents of the homebrew game: 

It featured a heavily distorted vision of a maze inhabited by puppet enemies that required the player to roll matches on a slot machine to move around. After exploring the maze half-heartedly and dying at the hands of a puppet labeled "Dark 1" on it's chest he finished his video with a titlecard explaining that he felt funny after playing for only a few moments, and would post more footage the next day after getting some rest. The next morning, the video and the 7 year old "hueyfreeman99" Youtube account had been deleted. 

On December 29th of 2025, Softgnos Psychotronics agents infiltrated the alleged site of prolonged underage cult activity, The Bensen Rio Blair House, primarily in interest in extracting the aforementioned homebrew artifact for commercial exploitation. The operation was technically successful and the game in question is reproduced in full here, for your engagement.
