A deadly contest that risks the player's life in exchange for prizes if they win?
A group of killer bosses with gimmicky powers to hunt our hero?
A trio of weaker characters with bad pathfinding scripts that need to be escorted through the area?
 
If you can't see how this is a video game come to life, we don't know how to help you. It's time for Arnold to GIT GUD!
