A puzzle game coming out soon on Steam promises to offer a single Bitcoin to the first person who can beat it.

The developers of Montecrypto: The Bitcoin Enigma, Gem Rose Accent, will launch the $2 USD game on Steam on February 20. Players must traverse a maze in first-person and solve 24 different puzzles. The first player to finish all of the puzzles will receive one Bitcoin, which is currently worth a little over $9,800 USD.

You can work with others to solve these puzzles, leave hints and clues behind for other players, or lead them down dead ends if you so choose. Motherboard reports the developers of the game want to remain anonymous until a winner is crowned.

"We are trying to keep our identities secret for now," Gem Rose Accent said in a press release. "But we can say we are a group of game developers and that we had a crazy idea for a game."

February 20th is tomorrow...

I browsed through the article, the artwork was nice. Even though there will only be one winner or a team. It's still nice to see Bitcoin offered as a prize pool. When new players play the game and notice the prize mentioning "Bitcoin" some might wonder "What is Bitcoin?" and thus getting introduced into the world of cryptocurrency. Nonetheless I hope for a smooth launch tomorrow and may the smartest brain win.

It's such a shame that Steam disabled the ability to purchase games with bitcoin. Hopefully they'll enable other cryptocurrencies though.
