In a not too distant future...
|
|
...Earth is invaded by aliens.
These creatures are kind of spiders 10-15 meters large, and their technology overtake human's one by hundreds times.
Humanity is not slave of this race, but Earth is anymore ours.
Aliens occupied all the hot-humid and tempered places on Earth, leaving really little overpopulated cold and desertic zones to humans.
Humanity is now in semi-barbarian conditions, no factories, no cars, no phones, no television, no technology.
Some kind of feudal system is up and agriculture is back as a primary activity.
Aliens usually don't bother with humans but if they see an industry growing, a building or something too much technologized, they go and destroy it.
They hold the human race at a medieval level.
Humans are for aliens comparable to beasts. They come some times and hunt humans, just for sport.
Some other times they make raids on populated centers and capture people that will never come back...

|
During one of these raids...
|
|
...you are captured.
The aliens bring you with them somewhere, you can't say exactly where, and it has really not that much importance...
You are kept in a cage with something that seem... a bed? And a table with a chair???
A smaller alien seem to be the one who will "take care" of you. Maybe... it's an alien baby?
He holds your cage with its pseudopodes, he watch you... with... curiosity?
Your little cage is then taken and dropped into a much bigger cage, at the corner of an immense room.
This big cage must be something like 30x30 meters, and is widely transparent on one side, like if made of glass, and there is a little lake on one side, and a big entrance from where aliens can get in.
You are now an ALIEN'S PET.
|
|
|
Life is hard...
|
|
...for ALIEN'S PETs.
Every day you will have to earn your food.
Your baby alien is pretty perverse and he wants you to "play" all the time.
He create games for you, places to reach, animals to group or kill, puzzles to solve.
You may not do these games, but each game you will jump you will become weaker, until you will die by weakness or hunger or your young master will get tired of you and you will be just killed and trashed.
Each night, after the alien goes to sleep, you will have time to try to escape.
But... the less you sleep, the weaker you become.
Eat little, sleep little, this is a good and fast way to death.
|
|
|
Your brain...
|
|
...is the only thing that can earn you freedom.
Test your brain and escape from the aliens as early as possible.
There will be a scoring system.
Save time in puzzles and you make score.
Kill fierce beasts and you score.
Execute the right tasks and you score.
Escape from the aliens early and you take a BIG score.
Fail to solve puzzles and you remain without food.
