Do you want to experience death while you’re still alive? Well, good for all those who agreed because now there is a game that claims to fulfil your curiosity without actually killing you. All you’ve got to do is fly down to China.

“Samadhi – 4D Experience of Death” uses dramatic special effects to simulate a feeling of dying, with players made to compete in a series of challenges to avoid “death”.

As much as it sounds dark and morbid, the creators were motivated to build the death simulating game following their own individual periods of “soul searching”.

The game will use special effects to bring realistic death experience that can be achieved while still, ahem, living. The losers of the game will be made to lie on a conveyor belt which will transport the player through a fake funeral home incinerator. For your realistic experience the game shall feature hot air and light projections to make sure you feel like you’re actually dying. To add to the death experience the player will be transferred to a soft womb-like chamber to indicate rebirth. Needless to say it’s not for the faint hearted ones.

And the winners, you ask? “He’ll also have to die of course,” says the games fatalistic co-founder Ding Rui. So, don’t worry they won’t be spared from the deadly experience.  As in life, he explains, “everyone will die eventually, no matter what they’ve survived.”

“Creator Ding Rui and his partner Huang Wei-ping went to great lengths researching their game, investigating the cremation process that typically awaits 50 per cent of Chinese people after death.” CNN reports.

Their morbid curiosity of the creators was inspired from their work at a hospice. “The saddest part of the job wasn’t seeing the patients passing away, but how the families refused to face death — the final days with their loved ones consisted of kind but shallow lies,” said Ding. “We lack understanding of death and the fear can become so overwhelming.”

They launched a campaign to raise money on jue.so (the Chinese version of Kickstarter). With an overwhelming response the project received over to $67,000 in just three months. Opening come September this year, the experience will cost $40.

So, are you ready to experience death?
