You are a struggling college student in need of some cash. You see a flier for a new product called the “Sensation Box” on your way to one of your classes. It seems they are looking to test out this new technology in a couple studies before the product launches, and they’re offering up a cash prize to students. Students will get a payout proportional to how quickly they can escape the box, among other varying factors. “Oh, so it’s like an escape room!” you think to yourself. Seems easy enough. You decide to check it out after class.

You arrive on site to see a handful of other students there as well, some women, some men. You look over to see the Sensation Boxes nearby. They are 8 foot tall large metallic rectangles with a transparent door, held within a large gyroscope structure which is seemingly able to flip the box in any orientation. You sign your contract, not really reading much of what’s on it. Whatever it is you just agreed to, you need the money. You are all handed cups of coffee and instructed to drink at the same time. As you drink, you begin to feel tired before suddenly, the world goes black.

You are wake up laying on your back in a dark box, strapped down by metal restraints on your ankles, and wrists. You pull against the restraints, but it’s no use. A sudden clank and a soft hum can be heard as light slowly fades in, illuminating your surroundings. You’re in a metal tube with either wall no more than a rulers length away from you, and you’re strapped to a soft cushioned bed. You suddenly hear a robotic voice announce to you, “WELCOME TO THE SENSATION MACHINE, WHERE YOU’RE DARKEST SEXUAL DESIRES MAY BE FULFILLED.”
