Dearest contestants,
You have been selected for the 66th annual Hunger Games. This year, our scientists and game masters have whipped up a most exciting arena full of horrifying surprises. I do terribly hope you aren’t afraid of worms because this year you are taking a trip to Parasite Paradise.
It is our duty as head game masters to make you aware of the rules, you know, bureaucracy and all that malarkey. We cannot be having any of you slippery, no-good district filth cheating during our games.
First and foremost, the goal of the games is to be the last human standing in the arena. Do what you must to ensure you outlast your competitors and you will be awarded with your life, and a petite stipend (aka a sticker) for the rest of your life funded by the Capital.
Secondly, you will be participating in a preliminary marketing campaign to introduce yourself to our audiences back home. This will be a talk show setting where questions will be posed to the group as a whole. The strategy is simple: answer more questions to get more screen time and recognition with potential sponsors that can help you during your time in Parasite Paradise.
Once you enter the arena, you will be faced with a series of perilous decisions that may just cost you your life. Be aware of making allies, you wouldn’t want to catch a little bug due to a friend’s stupidity.
Furthermore, you have been instructed to do research with your mentors on parasites both indigenous and foreign. We have spared no expenses and have taken extensive measures to ensure that every possible surprise is there to catch you off-guard. We must warn you, there are no good choices, only slightly better and slightly worse options.
During your time in the arena, you will have access to your research and a sheet to keep track of the decisions and deaths of your fellow vermin. Note your opponents’ moves closely, and keep track of your guesses for each cause of death. You may only include one possible cause of death per competitor, and your research should give you all the information you need to make educated guesses. The lowlife with the most correct guesses on opponent deaths will also have an equally petite stipend sent to their family for the next five years.
With that, you’re off, and may the odds never be in your favor.
