Let’s Play: Ancient Greek Punishment: CPU Edition!

Description (in English)

Let’s Play is part of an ongoing series of games based on ancient Greek figuresand their punishments. Sisyphus, Prometheus, Tantalus, Danaids and Zeno, thephilosopher known for his paradoxes, are represented by the CPU player, thecomputer’s Central Processing Unit. In this CPU edition, the computer does it allby itself, both simulating and playing the game, cutting out the player entirely.Every time the reload button is activated, the game starts afresh. It may seemlike watching an animated GIF or a video file, but it’s the computer playing,pushing a rock or having its liver eaten. Again and again. Let’s Play presents aworld closed in on itself, behaving according to its own logic, its own code. Aworld stuck in a frustrating loop.
