Vous arrivez en retard pour le test. Une voix pressante vous conduit dans un ascenseur, puis le long d'un couloir jusqu'à la table centrale, entouré de participants muets. Des règles draconiennes encadrent vos moindres gestes : restez à l'intérieur si l'ascenseur s'arrête trop tôt, pas de parole ni de photos, interdiction de noter vos souvenirs, et surtout, ne fixez jamais le projecteur de diapositives.
Cette aventure indie sur PC se déploie via des instructions guidées et des contraintes qui s'intensifient au fil du test. Des éclairs lumineux intenses surgissent dans les passages clés, avec un avertissement pour risques de réactions photosensibles - arrêtez de jouer et consultez un médecin si des symptômes apparaissent. Elle séduit les joueurs avides de tension expérimentale et de défis visuels.
You're late. We were about to start without you.
Through that elevator on your left, please. And then down the hallway - don't lollygag, we're behind enough as it is.
If the elevator stops, under no circumstances should you exit before reaching the correct floor. Repeat that to me please so I know you understood it.
Ok, thank you.
When you get there, take a seat at the center table. The test will begin shortly. Do not speak to the other participants. Do not take any photographs. Do not write down your memories of it. And do not look directly into the slide projector.
What? No, it's a slide projector - it won't do any damage. But you won't be able to see. And we need you to see.

A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while playing.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any symptoms.
Silkbulb Test has certain sections with intense flashing lights - play at your own risk.
