LAST TO LEAVE THE APP

Check in every 6 hours or you're out. Buyout offers escalate daily — every taken deal feeds the survivor pot.

SQUAD SURVIVAL

Drafted with 9 strangers. 3 shared lifelines. One quitter costs everyone — pick who you trust.

SPLIT OR STEAL

Every bracket's endgame. Steal-rates become next week's thumbnail — the game writes the show.

BEAST VISION

EARN THE SEAT

Immersion is a reward tier, never a gate. Every mechanic plays identically on a flat screen — VR only changes how you witness what you already earned.

BUILDER'S NOTE

I 3D-print my own VR headsets — Fusion 360, a bedroom workshop, a lot of failed prints. That's exactly why Beast Vision doesn't require one. The best VR feature works on a $40 phone, upgrades with a $10 Cardboard, and scales to a rig you print yourself.

WHY THIS WORKS

THE PRODUCER MATH

0%

Premiere concurrency. Every fan has stakes in minute 22, not just minute 1. Retention is a game rule.

0×/day

Check-in loop. Last To Leave The App means daily-active by design, not by push notification.

0

Screen tests per season. The casting pipeline runs itself — the top 0.1% arrive pre-vetted, on camera, under pressure.

0%

Of finalists steal. That stat alone is a thumbnail. The game writes next week's video.
