Synopsis
Eight people are given the opportunity to participate in a game during which they will be locked in a building and will earn a substantial amount of money for each minute of play. At night, each person is locked in a different room on eight separate floors and must purchase all necessary goods at one hundred times their normal price using the money earned up to that point. During the day, they can use part of the remaining time to buy what the group needs.
Initially, the eight people decide to work together to maximize their playtime and individual earnings. However, when they discover that those residing on the higher floors earn significantly more money and have larger rooms, a power struggle erupts among them.
