It is 1999, and you are sitting in Room 44 for a standardized test.

At first it seems ordinary. There are questions about history and questions
about science. Then it asks what you did three minutes ago, and it turns out
the test already knows the answer.

• Bet on your answers. Before you commit to one, you say how confident you are. Confidence is worth more points, but a confident wrong answer gets you noticed.
  
• Look after your erasers. You only get so many, and someone is counting them.
  
• Put your pencil down when the proctor walks the rows. If you keep writing, he sees it.

It is a single player game with adjustable difficulty, and you can play it using
only the mouse if you prefer.


If you wishlist PENCILS DOWN, Steam will email you as soon as it is out on
September 4. That is the easiest way to catch it on day one.

Thanks for reading. See you in Room 44.
