Editor's Summary
I'm still trying to wrap my head around T-bank's new game, which has been giving away a whopping pair of million Russian rubles for a whole year now. The thing is, it's not just about the prize - it's about the way the game is structured, and whether it's really worth the time and effort. Within just a couple of days, you can go from being a top contender to one of the also-rans, and in the end, you might even get a prize - although it's usually just 20 rubles. I mean, you can't really complain, but is that really a victory? The game's unpredictability is part of its charm, but it's also what makes it so frustrating. I've been playing for a while now, and I'm still not sure if I'm having fun or just wasting my time. Either way, it's definitely a wild ride.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around it - it's been a whole year since T-bank launched their new game, with a whopping pair of million Russian rubles up for grabs. The only thing that's still unclear is who will be the lucky winner and when they'll get their hands on the prize. Or will the bank continue to give away a measly 20 rubles to all the lovelorn romantics out there?
Many of you might remember the 'Five Letters' game, which was actually quite an exciting challenge. I played it out of curiosity, and it was like a fun little test of my vocabulary and the bank's honesty. But, let's get back to the new game. Within just a couple of days, you can go from being a top contender to one of the also-rans, and in the end, you might even get a prize - although it's usually just 20 rubles. I mean, you can't really complain, but is that really a victory?
Yes, '5 Letters' is perfect for pensioners like me, but we're talking about a different kind of challenge here - a Mario-style game of chance. This little guy looks like he's straight out of a Konstantin Kuznetsov show. Next thing you know, he'll be jumping off a suitcase and flinging open his coat like a total rebel. Scary, right?
This poor guy is constantly running around, dodging obstacles left and right. It's like he's on a wild goose chase, with no clear direction in sight.
He's flying over mushrooms, which he probably ate just before taking off. Maybe he's got a stomach bug, judging by the weird gas cloud following him around. He's clinging to his suitcase for dear life, desperately collecting coins like I am, frantically tapping my fingers on the screen, hoping to win a prize with a two-digit number.
That reminds me of the title of a movie with a similar vibe: 'Flying Over Cuckoo's Nest'. It's like they're trying to create a sense of chaos and unpredictability.
Keep an eye out for those spikes; they might just move around, making it even harder to reach the prize. You've only got one chance a day to win, so it's like a ticking time bomb.
And if you mess up, don't forget to pay the green lightning bolt. Yeah, those green lightning bolts are way more expensive than gold.
I didn't dig too deep after that, to be honest. I went for a couple of runs just to get familiar with it. Even a romantic like me, who's a bit out of touch, gets bored with the game. It's just not engaging. It feels like one of those early 90s games, but even that was more exciting. If we set aside the game itself, let's remember why we're here. We're discussing the elusive prize under the mushroom. Grifoed's prize, to be exact. The only thing we can learn from the app is that T-Bank is offering us a chance to earn virtual coins by spending our real money. One thing that caught my attention is: does this actually work for anyone? On the other hand, if there are people willing to pay for something that's just a pipe dream, who are we to judge?
Buy an airline ticket and earn virtual coins. Spend those virtual coins on a gun for your boyfriend. A decent offer. But only if you're flying over the cuckoo's nest. If the cuckoo flies the coop, this offer might just be worth it.
The question remains: who is this aimed at? Is it for the thrill-seekers, the casual gamers, or just the people who are desperate for a chance to win something?
Another page offers discounts if you run with a suitcase. They're just adding and subtracting, and making you run to make you lose your grip. In short, they're messing with our brother's head. This makes you vulnerable and dependent. I think we should steer clear of these games, and not get too caught up in them. There are no real prizes, but there's a game being played with our minds, and it's called Marketing. A worthy science for the century of market relationships and economic games. Let the kings have their fun, thinking people are powerless, but don't let anyone control you. We've taken a look, had a runaround, and we're outta there, escaping from all these invisible manipulation tactics.
As they say: to the emperor, his due; to God, his due. Amen.
