You are transported through Facility 7 with William Keene the warden of the facility. You have two options which are cooperation or death. If you participate in the gruesome trials at hand then you will be granted your freedom, however, if you fail then you will be sentenced to an untimely despise. In Facility 7 your choices are very limited so you must obey or pay the ultimate sacrifice.
The first puzzle is rather simple, you must walk up to the door and enter it within 60 seconds or suffocate to death by inhaling a room full of harmful gas.
