Crystar Test

Puzzle in homage to Crystar: the best game ever. Puzzle follows the entire plot structure of the game, so playing that first will make more sense.

When's the last time you cried?

Crying is a healthy activity which many seem to be deficient in, and deserve the privilege to experience. Because once all the tears are shed, there are no more left, and only happiness remains. Not simply mere joy, but an eternal state of having overcome every possible trouble in life, never to torment ever again. Just beat and trample and shred and obliterate every bad thing until only the good and beautiful remains.

The human conscience is easily manipulated by feelings of guilt and shame; a tragic condition which this game exists to counteract and cure. Nietzsche tried to help people overcome this condition, yet was not able to provide the proper emotional impact. But where he failed, this game succeeds, for once one plays Crystar, all feelings of guilt will melt away, making the player strong and resilient against all attempts at manipulation. No more shall people be made to feel as though they've done wrong when they've only done what they must. That they've only done what they were compelled or forced to do. This is why it's necessary for this puzzle to exist: the catalyst to aid in bringing about the end of all guilt and depression.
