The Warden's Loop

The lethal injection was supposed to end my life. Instead, I jolt awake choking on my own blood in a concrete labyrinth, staring down the barrel of a gun held by a lethal mercenary who has already slaughtered me twice. Welcome to the Warden's Crucible: an endless, shifting death row where every execution resets the clock, and an omniscient AI forces inmates to butcher each other just to unlock the next floor. In this brutal proving ground, pain is permanent, death is a temporary inconvenience, and the rules of physics mutate with every single reset. Ada Frost is my deadliest rival, yet our razor-thin alliance is the only thing standing between us and the psychopaths hunting our flesh. To break the cycle, I must master every glitch, exploit every combat loop, and outsmart a godlike warden who knows our darkest secrets before we even speak them. Die once, learn the trap. Die twice, kill the hunter. Die a thousand times, and tear the entire prison down from the inside.
