"But then only the last chip of the cube will reveal what’s inside, and only to the person who performs that last chip with their chisel." So is this a one off

So is this a one off game? Once the game ends, it sounds like it's over for good. So if someone spends $20-$30 on this, the game could end in the next few hours forever? Makes the prospect of the $77,000 pickaxe this seems insane. Plus I don't understand the idea of getting everyone to pool their money together to buy the pickaxe when only one person sees the ending.
- gilrain 14y agoIt's clearly more of an art project than a game, or maybe a sociology experiment. I'd suggest the title of "curiosity" refers more to Peter's curiosity than those who play.
- debacle 14y agoThe 'fun' of the 'game' is in chiseling away at a black cube. So, even if you do find this kind of thing fun, the more people who play the game, the less fun you get to have!
- ars 14y agoAnd it wasn't insane if you spent $77,000 and did get to see the ending? Are there actually people in the world who would pay $77,000 just to see an ending? For $77,000 you could hire someone to make a whole bunch of custom movies for you with all kinds of endings.
