Black Souls

Designer Inc's latest game title Black Souls has achieved international acclaim! Hailed as one of the toughest games ever, it has attracted millions of hardcore gamers. The secret behind this huge success lies not in just making an extremely difficult game. Anyone can do that simply by allowing the game minions to one-shot the heroes. The true challenge lies in properly rewarding excellent playing skills, and punishing poor game play. Such is the only way that hardcore gamers will happily accept their losses and bask in their victories. Alas, the game studio is heavily short staffed and the management is looking to expand its development team for Black Souls' expansion.

You have been given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be hired by Designer Inc as a level designer, an integral part of Black Souls' development team! As one of the finalist candidates, you must prove your designing skills under the judging eyes of your future employers in an 'Early Beta Access' trial to create a level that best reflects the spirit of Black Souls - a very difficult, yet fair game. A group of seasoned playtesters will be sent to try out your carefully designed level, and provide feedback on whether they like or dislike it. If the level is too easy, they would not feel challenged at all. If it is too hard, they would all be killed and find it unfair. Who will be the final candidate to be inducted into the ranks of Designer Inc?
