IMG_0939I first got a look at Five Minutes to Kill Yourself [App Store] as part of an oddly secretive preview from the folks at Adult Swim. With the game's impending release in the near future, now is finally the time to pull the cover off Adult Swim's latest iPhone adaptation of yet another one of their flash games.

As the title may imply, in Five Minutes to Kill Yourself, you've found yourself fed up with working in your monotonous office environment and have decided to off yourself. Utilizing various objects found around your office, you only have five minutes to do enough damage to put yourself out of your misery.

IMG_0936

It isn't that simple though, as your bothersome coworkers often initiate unskippable conversations with you. Much like working in a real office, these conversations accomplish nothing other than wasting your time. In some instances, through dialog choices you might get a coworker to attack you, but most of the time they just pester you about lunch.

You can staple your forehead, drink toilet water, pee on computers, and countless other things. The amount of objects that you can interact with and the objects that can be combined with others for even more lethal damage is pretty amazing. The following video shows the game's tutorial, selecting clothing, and finally, killing yourself:

[ Full HD version | Low Bandwidth version ]

Five Minutes to Kill Yourself is also available as a free flash game on the Adult Swim website. It plays exactly the same as the iPhone version, the only difference is instead of using your mouse you use your finger.

Five Minutes to Kill Yourself should be available on the App Store very soon.

Update: Wow, we weren't kidding about it being available soon. It was just released moments ago.

    This is just sick and wrong. An game that advocates methods to kill yourself is just wrong. Not to mention, I'm sure it will get in the hands of young kids.

    I really hope apple does NOT approve this app.

        He has a point you know.

        Unlike other issues which are largely sectional such as sex and discrimination, and yes, even violence in video games; suicide is on everyone's do-not-cross-the-line list. Considering modern society is struggling to deal with teenage suicide pacts in schools and general teenage depression, when a game like this is openly made available to ANYONE with an iTunes card, it's a serious issue. And if anyone seeing this game has personally been affected by the suicide of someone close to them, this is going to flare up alot of heated emotions and alarm bells.

        I'm all about hating on censors, but Apple should do more to verify the age groups permitted to download some of this content, and this one here is about as bad as an app can get. Even hardcore pornography should come before suicide-based games.

        Do you have any scientific data to suggest that *a game like this, instead of an actually depressing life circumstance, would make someone commit suicide*? (I'm asking for scientific data because your theory certainly fails on my gut-feeling level, but that's subjective. I've heard of the Werther effect, but that's playing on a whole other emotion of heroic tragedy, not comic fun.)

        re-read what you just said.

        The same applies to any war game and people who have lost loved ones IN a war.

        so ban call of duty aswell?? oh of COURSE not. because that would be STICKING TO YOUR GUNS WOULDNT IT?

        gtfo of here with your whining.

      • TKO

        @windburn You're making a lot of assumptions there dude. Chill. It's just a game. It's a parody of the extreme boredom of office life. It's like the (excellent) "Office Space" movie taken to the logical extreme.

        Suicide isn't on everyone's do-not-cross-list ..not all cultures have the societal and religious prejudices against it (I would tentatively cite Japan as an example.) If you don't like it, just don't check it out. It's not *advocating* anything, it's a game. It's parody. It uses exaggeration and taboo subjects to charge the (black) humour portrayed.

        My brother (2 years younger than me) committed suicide (a old car carbon monoxide poisoning trick) ..and I have no objection to this game at all. It's not real life. Get over it. :)

      • Windburn

        Though it may be difficult for you, read what I was actually writing about and respond to that instead of going off on a completely inane tangent.

        You'll see that all I was saying was that if Apple wants to release games like this, they should make sure the environment they release them in is sound. What's preventing a 16 year old with an iTunes card from their local music store from buying this currently? Absolutely nothing, and that's wrong.

        The difference between losing people in a war and children being exposed to suicide, is that children cannot enlist in wars. Children do not fight in wars. Hence, they can't be influenced to go and shoot someone in a war until they are of appropriate age. Suicide is an entirely different kettle of fish that needs to be kept away from kids-- anyone with a modicum of intelligence would see that.

      • TKO

        Kids are more resilient than most people give them credit for. Problem with sheltering kids from too many aspects of life is, when they are finally exposed to these things (as with death they *inevitably* are), they aren't so well equipped to deal with it.

        Death is a part of life. (Even suicide.) The sooner people are exposed to that concept, the better they learn to deal with it.

      What's the difference between a ton of coal and a thousand Jews? Jews burn longer.

      What's the difference between a Jew and a Pizza? The pizza doesn't scream when you put it in the oven.

      Two Jewish children are sitting on top of a roof near a chimney. A passer-by asks, 'What are you doing there?' The kids say, 'We're waiting for our parents.'

      Oh wait, were those offensive?

      I don't think it's always appropriate to mock serious issues.

    • Maniacfive

      Im completely offended and very upset by this game. Because i just spunked 1.79 on it thinking it would be fun, and entertaining, and it is in fact, duller than watching paint dry. Seriously, avoid this one. its ultimately a beat the clock game. problem is, theres not enough variety to make it a challenge. The most effective ways to end your tedious office based existence are obvious once you've done em once. then the only challenge is to get to those items quickly. And where are the people to talk to? out of an entire office populated by people, i've found 2 that can actually be interacted with.

      Weak.

      And anyone actually upset because of the apps subject matter needs to seriously get over it, and start worrying about things that actually matter. You know, the actual causes of teen suicide, rather than a game. But of course, its easier to blame a game making fun of a boring office environment than actually I dunno, be a parent to your depressed kids.

    • http://www.scottcolbert.wordpress.com Scott

      Just because you're too immature to handle its premise, doesn't mean others with a sense of humor and common sense won't get a kick out of it. I've had relatives and friends commit suicide, and the concept of the game doesn't bother me; nor should it bother anyone else.

      This is sick, but other games shooting zombies, people, aliens with all sorts of guns etc isn't? Hypocritical much?

      • Peri

        And just because you're a disturbed individual with a perverse sense of humor, doesn't mean others who aren't and don't shouldn't call you on it. I've had relatives die in gas chambers, so let's throw a party to celebrate and laugh at their expense! Yeah, this game is the same as shooting zombies and aliens. Dolt.

      • http://www.scottcolbert.wordpress.com Scott

        Peri,

        I'm neither perverse or a dolt, merely a rationally thinking human being. If the graphics on this were realistic, I might have a problem with the game. It's not though, the graphics are quite cartoonish.

        If you're not mentally stable enough to play it, I believe there are plenty of kid's games that are fit for you. If you're worried about children playing it, hey, here's an idea, watch what your rugrats are doing!

        As someone else said, if someone contemplates suicide after playing this game they had far more problems to begin with.

        And DON'T EVEN DARE play the concentration camp card, as I had relatives gassed in Buchenwald, and this isn't even close to being the same thing. Who's the "dolt" now?

      • TKO

        Yeah, Peri, stop with the holocaust crap. You're not very good at forming a coherent argument, and you're just making yourself look like an ass.

      • Alex

        So Scott, if they made a game where the goal was to rape as many kids as possible in 5 minutes, but it had cartoony graphics, it'd be okay?

        It's all a matter of scale, and this game crossed the line for some people. It has nothing to do with being too "immature to handle its premise" (Nothing shows off your maturity more than laughing at the idea of suicide!)

      • Peri

        What is the "concentration camp card?" I didn't realize I played it.

      • Ender

        So Scott, so you take offense to holocaust humor? So that's offensive to you? But you're "mature" enough to be okay with a game that advocates suicide when there are millions of people out there who have had that attempted suicide ruin their lives or actual suicide ruin the lives of their loved ones?

      • http://www.scottcolbert.wordpress.com Scott

        Peri,
        If you're unable to even remember what you've posted, despite being able to scroll up a bit to see, then you should stay off the internet.

        Ender,
        I can say the same to you. If you think there's no difference between a cartoonish game about being so swamped at work you'd rather die, and the extermination of millions of people, then you need to go study history.

        Either way you're both obviously unable to grasp simple concepts, such as satire, black humor and reality.

        I've had friends commit suicide, I had a cousin throw himself in front of a train, and I have relatives killed in BUchenwald. I speak from experience, not a knee jerk reaction that has no basis in reality.

        To even think a game like this is making light of serious problems, given the context of the game's humor is foolish and narrow minded.

      • Peri

        Scott,

        I was asking you what IS this alleged "concentration camp card" you mentioned. That request was in plain English. It had nothing to do with lack of recall. And if you can't understand plain English, perhaps it is you who should stay off the Internet.

        Sincerely,

        Peri

        "I was asking you what IS this alleged "concentration camp card" you mentioned. That request was in plain English. "

        AHAHAh oh dear peri. I really think you have no idea how to operate your brain.

        here, to help you and your slightly retarded self, ill paste a quote from what you said which may clear this up.

        "I've had relatives die in gas chambers, so let's throw a party to celebrate and laugh at their expense!"

        That was you. playing the concentration camp card. tard. you really have no grasp on english, memory, coherency or how to converse with people. maybe you should go sit in your room. and wear a helmet. with the lights off. and ear plugs in. Thats the life for you.

      Try not to be so ignorant. You can't compare a cartoonish game about office work being so awful you want to kill yourself, to raping children. They're not even comparable. I'd think even someone with tunnel vision like yourself would know that.

      Unless of course you're hoping to play a game like that.

      • Ender

        What about a cartoonish game about gassing relatives gassed in Buchenwald? I totally would play that game! I bet it'd be hilarious! In fact, I'm mature enough to tell all my friends so that they can gas relatives in Buchenwald too!

    • Janne

      whereas game where you shoot other people is perfectly OK?

  • Simon

    Apple would most stupid company to approve that game. This game is sick !!

    • http://www.scottcolbert.wordpress.com Scott

      Just because you're too immature to handle its premise, doesn't mean others with a sense of humor and common sense won't get a kick out of it. I've had relatives and friends commit suicide, and the concept of the game doesn't bother me; nor should it bother anyone else.

      This is sick, but other games shooting zombies, people, aliens with all sorts of guns etc isn't? Hypocritical much?

      • Peri

        And just because you're a disturbed individual with a perverse sense of humor, doesn't mean others who aren't and don't shouldn't call you on it. I've had relatives die in gas chambers, so let's throw a party to celebrate and laugh at their expense! Yeah, this game is the same as shooting zombies and aliens. Dolt.

      • http://www.scottcolbert.wordpress.com Scott

        Peri,

        I'm neither perverse or a dolt, merely a rationally thinking human being. If the graphics on this were realistic, I might have a problem with the game. It's not though, the graphics are quite cartoonish.

        If you're not mentally stable enough to play it, I believe there are plenty of kid's games that are fit for you. If you're worried about children playing it, hey, here's an idea, watch what your rugrats are doing!

        As someone else said, if someone contemplates suicide after playing this game they had far more problems to begin with.

        And DON'T EVEN DARE play the concentration camp card, as I had relatives gassed in Buchenwald, and this isn't even close to being the same thing. Who's the "dolt" now?

      • TKO

        Yeah, Peri, stop with the holocaust crap. You're not very good at forming a coherent argument, and you're just making yourself look like an ass.

      • Alex

        So Scott, if they made a game where the goal was to rape as many kids as possible in 5 minutes, but it had cartoony graphics, it'd be okay?

        It's all a matter of scale, and this game crossed the line for some people. It has nothing to do with being too "immature to handle its premise" (Nothing shows off your maturity more than laughing at the idea of suicide!)

      • Peri

        What is the "concentration camp card?" I didn't realize I played it.

      • Ender

        So Scott, so you take offense to holocaust humor? So that's offensive to you? But you're "mature" enough to be okay with a game that advocates suicide when there are millions of people out there who have had that attempted suicide ruin their lives or actual suicide ruin the lives of their loved ones?

      • http://www.scottcolbert.wordpress.com Scott

        Peri,
        If you're unable to even remember what you've posted, despite being able to scroll up a bit to see, then you should stay off the internet.

        Ender,
        I can say the same to you. If you think there's no difference between a cartoonish game about being so swamped at work you'd rather die, and the extermination of millions of people, then you need to go study history.

        Either way you're both obviously unable to grasp simple concepts, such as satire, black humor and reality.

        I've had friends commit suicide, I had a cousin throw himself in front of a train, and I have relatives killed in BUchenwald. I speak from experience, not a knee jerk reaction that has no basis in reality.

        To even think a game like this is making light of serious problems, given the context of the game's humor is foolish and narrow minded.

      • Peri

        Scott,

        I was asking you what IS this alleged "concentration camp card" you mentioned. That request was in plain English. It had nothing to do with lack of recall. And if you can't understand plain English, perhaps it is you who should stay off the Internet.

        Sincerely,

        Peri

      • kam

        "I was asking you what IS this alleged "concentration camp card" you mentioned. That request was in plain English. "

        AHAHAh oh dear peri. I really think you have no idea how to operate your brain.

        here, to help you and your slightly retarded self, ill paste a quote from what you said which may clear this up.

        "I've had relatives die in gas chambers, so let's throw a party to celebrate and laugh at their expense!"

        That was you. playing the concentration camp card. tard. you really have no grasp on english, memory, coherency or how to converse with people. maybe you should go sit in your room. and wear a helmet. with the lights off. and ear plugs in. Thats the life for you.

    • Kam

      then i guess they are the most stupid company in the world.

    I'm an open-minded individual who enjoys all sorts of first person shooters and the like, but I too find this offensive. Yes, there are more graphic or disturbing games out there, but this just seems sort of in line with making a game called "Holocaust Happy Hour" or something like that (where you have to shoot as many Jews as possible in the time allotted).

    If you think killing yourself with a photocopier is going to give young kids ideas, or that isn't obviously a joke, then there is something wrong with you.

    Pull this sick filth now! Think of the children! Oh the humanity!

    Yes Ender, you are right, this is on a par with making a game about the Holocaust. Jebus Christ, some of you over react.

    • Septimus

      edit - I'm more offended by the 2.99 price tag for a free flash game. Gouging bastards, 0.99 for a game you can run through the adobe iphone publishing tools people.

    • Ender

      Hey Septimus, you're right. Although I was trying to make a point, it is true that this game would be nowhere near as bad as a cartoonish take on the Holocaust. But what about a cartoonish take on a school shooting? I mean, the game does take place in an office. That's probably pretty close. So how about "Columbine Killer" where you have 5 minutes to take out as many other school children as you can (faculty and staff net you double points). I bet that'd be fun for you, right? Sure it would. Who wouldn't want to play that.

    Talk of censorship by Apple here is nonsense.

    The company who produced this garbage has the right to do so, just as Apple has the right to (in my opinion, justifiably) prevent its publication on their App Store or to pull it after publication. (Just as they should, incidentally, if someone were to release a "Final Solution" Holocaust game where you play the role of Eichmann.) Either move by Apple ISN'T censorship, which is a concept that only applies to government action. Rather, it's the perfectly appropriate exercise of Apple's right to use and dispose of their property as they see fit. After all, there is still some semblance of property rights left in the States.

    Let's hope Apple makes the rational move to inject a moral minima into their self-policing of App releases.

    Most of these comments are useless. It's a game and if anyone wants to commit suicide after playing this then they already had major problems!!! So if you did a decent good raising your kids then you have nothing to worry about.

    With all that said this isn't a kids game anyway. You should have to approve all your kids app purchases.

    It's good to see that Peri is making such good use of his/her time to go around 'educating' everyone with a different opinion.

    Contest the game, its premise, society's love for dark humor and whatever else you want, but it's not going to make a bit of difference. You won't change people's opinions, it won't make you feel better to whine about it and it won't make Apple suddenly pull the game.

    • Peri

      And it's good to see you make such a good use of your time taking Peri to task for not making good use of his time. If Peri's was a time waster for criticizing a game and its advocates for denigrating such a solemn thing as the taking of one's life, then what is undoubtedly more a waste of time is to point this out. So, thank you so much for your public service, Mr. Reynolds.

      More importantly, I'm not a jaded cynic like yourself. I don't agree for one moment that "it's not going to make a bit of difference." Ideas matter.

    I had a friend who hung himself a few years ago, and i'm not the least bit offended by this game. I won't be buying it because it doesn't look like it's worth $2.99, and that's the only reason. It's Adult Swim for crying out loud. All their games are this hilarious.

    To all the people protesting this, stop worrying about "the children" so much and worry about your own lives. Kids aren't going to buy a game like this anyway. It's too boring for them.

      And I'd like to add that they'd probably rather play Call of Duty anyway. :p Why play a game where you kill yourself when you can virtually kill someone else? Kids wouldn't understand the game, they wouldn't enjoy the premise and you probably couldn't get a kid to play the game if you made them.

    • Peri

      Not worried about the children. I'm concerned about the general state of a culture that takes so lightly such a serious issue. I'm also skeptical that the person you describe was any sort of a real friend given your treatment of the subject.

      • Axl Lowe

        You seem eager to assume that people who don't agree with you have something wrong with them.

        You didn't even consider the possibility that Squirt is able to keenly seperate fact from fiction and see the humor of the game? He knows his friend hung himself for vastly different reasons than those protrayed in the game. He knows the game's ridiculous and can have a good laugh about it, regardless of what his friend did.

        I could understand getting sensitive about it if you knew someone who died from peeing on a computer, but really, this game is so far removed from reality that argueing the point is.. pointless.

      • MidianGTX

        Wow you're annoying. The bottom line is this game is far too humourous to CAUSE anyone to kill themselves, so it's not actually doing any harm other than being slightly offensive. Now, how many things can we list that are openly available to the public that are offensive? Newspapers, books, music, film, OTHER PEOPLE... sometimes you just have to learn that it's not things being offensive that's hurting you, it's you ALLOWING yourself to get offended by matters which actually aren't making any difference to you at all. You could totally choose to ignore all that stuff, but for some reason you don't.

        The difference between you and us is that when we see something we don't like, we simply turn away and find something we do like. From that instant it's gone, it never existed to offend us in the first place... you however linger on it, spread your contrived story onto other people who aren't affected by it in some attempt to either annoy or convert them into your way of thinking.

        Yes we all know suicide is a serious matter, but life goes on and the way many people deal with the tougher issues in life is to laugh at it, cause as Roger Rabbit once said "if you can't laugh, you're better off dead".

      Yeah? Awesome. I think I have to buy this, just to be supportive of good satire such as this.

      As an aside: I think it's a shame Apple isn't a European company (or other non-US country with a less conservative sexual view.) ..if it was there would probably be similar freedom given to titles with more risqué sexual content too. (IMHO it would be good if their censors, I mean *reviewers*, ;) were allowed to be a little more relaxed about such things.)

      • nuff64

        I just know that myself, along with everyone around me is smart enough to know that suicide of any sort is dumb! Doesn't matter how crappy things can get. There's always light at the end of the tunnel.

        (Cue "you were a disturbed and twisted child" comments) When I was little, my friends and I would draw flip books and pictures of stick figures killing themselves in the stupidest ways. What little boy didn't think of that? Suicide was funny because of how stupid it was. If that's a person's only option, then they must have either had a really bad life, or they are a neglected child in a upper class family seeking attention, the scenario I hear most about when it comes to suicide in my area of Maryland, near DC and Bethesda. It sounds like violent video games, sexual content, and this game in particular all share something in common: If a kid is to play this, are the parents raising their child well enough so that they can understand right and wrong? Are we all mature enough to understand that? We are slowly killing free media due to all of this. The goal shouldn't be censorship. The goal should be smarter people.

        Now how to go about getting that to happen...

        I just know that myself, along with everyone around me is smart enough to know that suicide of any sort is dumb! Doesn't matter how crappy things can get. There's always light at the end of the tunnel.

        (Cue "you were a disturbed and twisted child" comments) When I was little, my friends and I would draw flip books and pictures of stick figures killing themselves in the stupidest ways. What little boy didn't think of that? Suicide was funny because of how stupid it was. If that's a person's only option, then they must have either had a really bad life, or they are a neglected child in a upper class family seeking attention, the scenario I hear most about when it comes to suicide in my area of Maryland, near DC and Bethesda. It sounds like violent video games, sexual content, and this game in particular all share something in common: If a kid is to play this, are the parents raising their child well enough so that they can understand right and wrong? Are we all mature enough to understand that? We are slowly killing free media due to all of this. The goal shouldn't be censorship. The goal should be smarter people.

        Now how to go about getting that to happen...

    On a completely different note (please), does this look like it was auto generated by adobes flash to app beta version of flash or what ? It just doesn't feel like a natively produced app at all ...

      Irony is that it IS actually a fun game, only you wouldn't know cause you're obviously way too mature ever to play it.

    I'm going to pick this up because I played the flash version and I really enjoyed it. Now I'm not the kind of person that takes death or suicide lightly but this is a cartoon. I could see if the game had Uncharted 2 graphics, but it doesn’t. It's not the game for you we get it!!

    Hasn't everyone been at work and was like, ugh!!! I hate this job!!! Well that's basically what this game is about. He's so frustrated at work he wants to kill himself. Adult Swim isn't making light of suicide or anything this game is just a metaphor for how most people sometimes feel at work. He has five minutes because the meeting starts in five minutes. Seriously I don’t understand how anyone could get worked up about this. It’s just dark humor…

    If you want to get worked up about something turn on the news. A seven-year-old girl just got murdered by some sicko!! Get worked up about protecting children from pedophiles and creeps. Like I said before if this game drives someone to suicide then they’re already a very disturbed individual. You could have handed me this game 10 years ago when I was 13 and I wouldn’t have the urge to piss on a computer…

    • nuff64

      Agreed!

    Ummmm... seriously? There's this much moral outrage about this game? There's a zillion iphone games out there where you kill *other* people, but one wacky comedy game where your throw yourself into paper shredders and packs of rabid weasels and it's all "OMG! This is sooo sick!"

    God, I hope Adult Swim ports "Orphan Feast." I can't wait to see the reaction to THAT one.

    I'm 35 years old and I can't see how killing yourself would be "sticking it to The Man". I would rather this game let you go on a rampage and tear the office up - your score would be determined by how many dollars in damage you could rack up.

    • http://www.scottcolbert.wordpress.com Scott

      You're missing the point of the game. It's not about sticking it to the man, as it is, willing to kill yourself rather than endure one more meeting, one more mundane task, one more annoying coworker.

      And it's funny, even though I think the idea of the game is humorous, I had no intention of d/ling it, as it's not something I felt compelled to play, but all the whiners made me go buy it to support the developer.

    Look everyone, I'll be serious for a moment and not sarcastic. Yes, this game is cartoonish, no I don't think anyone's going to off themselves because of this game, but I think that there are certain decency lines that, when crossed, just make it easier for people to cross even worse lines in the future.

    Different people on this forum have different triggers. Some don't want people making fun of the holocaust, some don't want people making fun of 9/11, Columbine, cancer, etc. Some just don't care. But I think that as a whole, there have to be some decency boundaries, and personally I believe that this app crosses that line—but that's just my personal opinion (yes, I know that I said "opinion," and that you have your own opinion as well).

    Anyway, no one's going to get upset over Rolando. But after seeing the activity on this forum, this app did hit a nerve and I think that has to be addressed.

    It's amazingly ironic how games with absurd levels of violence, where a player may kill dozens of hundreds of other individuals, get cheers, or even 'meh' responses...but a game where the goal is to off ONE character puts people on moral pedestals.

    Please.

    This game is clearly meant to be humorous, it's not the least bit realistic, and as has been said above...IF someone were to actually decide to hurt themselves after seeing or playing this game, they had very serious problems before the game existed.

    BORING.

    The funny concept, and edgey humor can't save it.

    I really want to like this game... I so do, but it fails at being a game.

    The items you use to hurt yourself, never change position. They are not random. They are in the same place, every time. You run to each item, and hurt yourself until your dead.

    Playing the game once, is enough to see all of the gameplay. Its boring.

    ZERO replay value, but a great concept, and good music :)

      OK, that's the part I was wondering about - would be interesting if it was randomized, but without it, can't see much replay value.

    Love the game, NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT which is what makes it awesome.

    Would be cool if there were more of a story, like first you wanna kill yourself because you got another staff meeting, then next time you wanna kill yourself again because of the loading time, etc. etc. More environments of course. And you got yourself a solid minigame.

    There's a little rule of thumb. If you don't like something...
    ignore it, shut it off, change the channel, whatever.

    If you like or dislike something, chances are there's more than one person who has the exact opposite opinion.

    Personally, I find the zillion and one Christiann bible apps in the App Store offensive, especially when they're mixed in with legitimate apps in categories such as "Lifestyle", "Reference" and "Education". Apple should have a Religion and Spirituality section, just like every bookstore I can think of.

    I don't like THAT? So what?
    You don't like 5 Minutes to Kill (Yourself)? So, what?

    Move along.

      you're an idiot. it's not that this is offending 35 year olds. its that if even one 13 year old attempted to off himself with a Ginsu, and it turned out that he had this game, Apple would fry for this. Why would they EVER accept this game. It looks stupid, boring, and, oh yeah, it would incur a shitload of bad press and possibly legal action.

      Exactly. It's a no-brainer.

    Its called "black comedy". Some people can laugh at morbid irony and others can't. That's okay. 5MTKY is one of the most popular games on adult swim and that's not just a recent development. I think I played it 2 years ago. I am the sort of person who passionately argues against people who say suicidal or self destructive persons are only looking for attention, having lost or nearly lost people close to me to suicide. 2 years ago I, myself slipped into a terrible downward spiral. 5MTKY actually was a fun release to me because I got it; it was saying out loud something I was thinking. I laughed for the first time in a while back then. Its not stupid. Its play. If you aren't sure what the act of play entails, I suggest reading some studies done by Huizinga or Callois who have written extensively of the subject of play.

    • Cookies

      But when did the act of play degrade to thoughts of suicide? If you handed this to a five year old and said "play" the social services would have you gagged in a padded room faster than you can say "IMHO". While this game may me fairly light hearted it's making a mockery of a subject than is not funny, is not in any remote sense "good" and frankly it shows than Adult Swim are very much catering to their namesake, perhaps if you add "Giant Sicko who enjoys the suffering of others" to the name as well. Thank you for your time, you used IMHO in context so now I can never see you as anything but an arrogant moron again.

    I think its fun as heck and not nearly as offensive as stuff like Postal (though I love those games too) because you are really just hurting yourself. I would be more offended if it were a game about a drunk drinking himself to death or a drug addict trying to overdose or some such. For whatever reason, the office theme is just perfect for this sort of humor whereas legitimate diseases somehow are not (imho at least).

    I agree though that it should be less than $2.99 due to its lack of content. The one level is really good and very funny, but it needs more stuff to use to hurt yourself and people to chat with who say inane garbage that is office-related. I would dearly love to see some add-on content. For $2.99, the first bunch should be free too. :-)

    I just read every single post and I don't think that the game should be pulled. Also this game isn't really offensive to me at all. I think that this app is harmless and doesn't cause teens to try to kill themselves, as I am a teen and really depressed. I think that this game is fun and helps people forget their troubles(of coarse don't start playing this right after some dies). Also everyone deals with death differently so some people shouldn't play this game.
    Hope this stops all of this crap.

    I just read every single post and I don't think that the game should be pulled. Also this game isn't really offensive to me at all. I think that this app is harmless and doesn't cause teens to try to kill themselves, as I am a teen and really depressed.

    a person who is not mentally mature enough to play this game would mean that that person would try to copy what he saw or played. since people have different maturity to others, mature people should guard those persons who haven't reached the level of maturity required to play this game because they might copy it. so basing that maturity generally is proportional to age then children should supervised by adults. it would be stupid that a person would assume that kids would find this funny because when they were kids it was funny for them. it is offensive for others that this game was released because not all the time they can filter what their loved ones are doing.

    i was like that when i was younger. i lacked parental supervision so i eventually got myself into a deep trouble but i got myself out of that trouble because a lot of my reached out for me and offered me help. i don't want others to experience what i have gone. we should prevent this stuff to from getting our children's mind.

    have anyone heard of that kid who went out shooting someone? eventually the investigation revealed that it was because of playing violent games that that kid went out of his system and mixed virtual reality with reality. games are a way of entertaining ourselves but sometimes games contain provocative ideas and sometimes are mixed with our own set values without us knowing it. the more we are expose to something the more we it is easier for us accepting it. by then, it will be easier for us to accept something which wasn't acceptable for us in the first place.... we will still live our lives, yeah...but our humanity was already taken..

    I think windburn has a BIT of a point, but I think your being to selective. You're acting like you view rules all, and what if I had three relitives die in war? I think war is over glamorized, but I really don't care. It's fine to be offended, but, don't act like everybody else has to. And to all you other people saying "NO, THE LITTLE KIDDYS ARE GUNNA KILL THEM SELVES, AND HAVE SEX, AND KILL OTHER PEOPLE, BECAUSE OF VIDEO GAMES!" I saw a lot worse watching the six sense with my mom when I was 5, and the god father, and much much more, I DIDN'T DO SQUAT! And @kelly,

    "AAAAAAAAAHHH!!!! THAT KID GOT SWINE FLU, WE'RE ALL GUNNA DIE!!!

    I know a kid who said the bible predicted it was made to kill all man kind. Then I got it, I staid home six days, I puked twice, then I felt better.

    I have read over half of these comments and all i hear is people comparing this game to other situations. everything in life cant be compared to something else. why not judge something as it is instead of always putting it next to something else. i believe this game is fun and entertaining. no video game developers say "my what game can we create today to get more people to kill themselves" different people have different senses of humor and no one can tell someone else what they are supposed to laugh at. disagree but dont keep others from enjoying what they think is entertainment.

    Does anyone actually believe children and teenagers are likely to kill themselves because they get their hands on a flash game featuring cartoonish suicide using toilet water and paper shredders?

    If anyone is so unstable that a game like this pushes them over the edge then it's far too late for them already. Are we going to take away all the violent video games to prevent kids from shooting up schools? All the sexual content in movies and television to prevent teen pregnancy?

    The detractors on this forum need to get off their high horses. If they were seriously concerned about suicide as an issue (child related or otherwise), then they would know it isn't caused by cartoon representations of it. Depressed kids need better parents, guidance counsellors and schools--not censorship.

    Ayo this is my opinion. This game shouldn't induce suicidle feelings. If your kid kills his/herself after playin this game they were probley fucked up already. And what are the odds of your child killing them self with a fuckin copier machine.

    Suicide is for Pussies, idiots!
    Though I do enjoy dark humor and I know that it's supposed to be a funny game I disaprove of this game (I don't mean censoring but just the idea of suicide)
    I'll get this game and see how fun it is sometime soon
    But I do disagree with the fact of putting suicide into a game xD
    I don't care about killing other people or anything so don't comment that shit as a counter answer :P

    Everyone who has posted here should die, for these two reasons:

    1. People who are offended by this fail at life
    2. People who argue online fail at life

    Kill yourself now and spare the world your defective genes.

    Lol troll wars up here! But seriously. What kind of dumbass is going to kill themselves over a game about it. It's probably more likely to prevent it, given the ludicrous, parodial presentation. And if your concerned about society's view on the subject, don't be. If there were a game about actually commuting suicide, i'd be offended. However, this is a parody playing on office aggravation, not serious suicide or anything. Yes, columbine and holocaust games would be horrible, and are not in any way relatable. This is slapstick humor with a teensy dark twist. Like when a cartoon guy gets hit with an anvil, just darker.
