SCP-024 is an abandoned sound stage. Upon entering SCP-024, visitors are immediately greeted by an anonymous announcer, who communicates via intercom and can hear and comprehend the voices of people within SCP-024. The announcer will inform the "contestants" that they are about to take part in a game show in which the winners will win fabulous prizes, but will also warn that the game will be highly hazardous and that the losers will never leave SCP-024. At this point, the announcer chooses whether to stay or leave SCP-024. Contestants who accept will continue participating in the game, while those who decline are immediately expelled from SCP-024. Contestants who win the game or decline to participate may never enter SCP-024 again, as an impenetrable, invisible barrier denies entry. It is then that the contestants are led to the actual game. The game's style, composition, and appearance constantly change in every play-through. Still, the game is always centered around a long, elaborate obstacle course the contestants must navigate. The rules also vary. Some play-throughs may only allow a single winner, while others encourage the creation of teams to win the game. More often than not, the obstacles seen in these games range from incredibly benign to extremely hazardous and life-threatening. As the contestants attempt to negotiate the course, the announcer will continuously update their status and actively participate in the game, often giving advice, conversing with contestants, and adding new rules. As the game progresses, the obstacles become significantly more dangerous and challenging to overcome, and it is not surprising to have the entire pool of contestants succumb to the rigors of the obstacle course. If such an event happens, the announcer will express sadness at the lack of a winner, and SCP-024 will shut down, resetting only when a new batch of contestants enters. Any attempts to "break the rules," such as assaulting other contestants and deliberately bypassing obstacles, are met by extreme violence. The announcer will call out the offending contestant, who will be quickly and forcefully ejected from the course by "studio guardians." These studio guardians will immediately materialize within SCP-024 when called upon by the announcer and disappear when not needed. The contestant will never be seen again. When a winner is declared, they will receive a random grand prize. Any contestants who have survived the course but failed to win are immediately declared losers by the announcer. The lights will switch off, and the winner will immediately appear outside SCP-024 with their prize while the losers disappear entirely.
