Get messed up with I-Doser

Anyone who has been on the Internet for any amount of time has undoubtedly stumbled across something that sounds like a scam. Nigerian bankers, p-p-p-powerbooks, get rich quick schemes, there seems to be no end to suspicious products and services online.When we first heard about I-Doser, we were understandably skeptical. The makers of this program sell "doses" for it, which are basically scripts that help the program generate a series of binaural beats to simulate various effects in the user. Some of the doses include Alcohol, Cocaine, Heroin, and "designer doses" such as Hand of God.
The free download of I-Doser includes the alcohol dose as a free demo, so we fired it up, almost expecting it to be a screamer or RickRoll. Instead, our ears were assaulted with the ordered chaos that is binaural beats. We patiently listened to the entire dose, stood up, and proceeded to sit back down rather sloppily. Amazingly enough, the dose did what it claimed!
Whether or not this program is powered by the placebo effect or real science is certainly debatable, but with a free trial and no known risks, this is a download worth trying. If nothing else, it's sure to make alcohol and drug deprived teens happy. I-Doser is only available for Windows, but it runs just fine in WINE (it even rhymes!).

It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
