i remember this one website on the bored button i found in like 2021 that i was too scared of that was a board game with the backstory of that it was found in a burned building by some archeologists or whatever cause its OOOOLDD and apparently was made to brainwash the player via psychology tricks. and the ppl who found it played the game and were brainwashed and that the website is a recreation of it. i remember the fact the pieces were brains and that the games spaces formed a spiral eventually, i don't remember much of the gameplay though. i think there were spaces with cards, and that was when i clicked off. there were NPC players too, while the human players' had colored brains the NPC's were grey. i think there was a scarecrow on the front cover? like this: it kinda feels like a digital horror in the making in retrospect, like "oooh a scary game is gonna getcha" or something. but it's fucking real lmaooooo. i still have that primal fear of cognitohazards though.
was it advertising a real boardgame or was this a creepypasta/scp story?
im unsure, it was a digital "recreation" of the board game. im pretty sure it was just a browser game under the guise of a board game that...brainwashes the player!
