SCP-CN-120's screen during Experiment CN-120-███ (sensitive information redacted)
Item #: SCP-CN-120
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-CN-120 is to be contained in a Standard Non-Biological Safe-class Containment Chamber at Site-CN-23. Besides approved testing, SCP-CN-120 is not to be removed from containment; violators will receive Class B amnestic treatment and be reassigned to other Sites. During testing, a computer running Windows 7 or higher is to be used. Following Incident CN-120-H, all testing has been postponed indefinitely until further information is obtained.
If a copied SCP-CN-120 disk is found, it is to be immediately collected and destroyed. All living subjects who have used SCP-CN-120 and any observers are to be administered Class B amnestics.
Description: SCP-CN-120 is a computer game, stored in an optical disk with 25 GB of capacity. When the disk is read by the computer, a single file can be seen on the disk, with its date of creation being 19██/██/██, occupying the entire capacity of the disk.
Despite its date of creation, SCP-CN-120 can only be run on computers running Windows 7 or higher (i.e. Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10). SCP-CN-120 can be duplicated by burning it onto another disk, but not by copying its contents out onto a hard disk or USB.
After running SCP-CN-120, the screen of a game titled "Heaven's Gate" will be displayed. Testing has shown that there are only five levels; the names of the levels appear to be an age, as well as an added section in English. SCP-CN-120's graphics appear to be drawn in pixel style.
When a subject executes SCP-CN-120, SCP-CN-120 will immediately jump to the level corresponding to the player's age and begin the game. The backgrounds, events and characters that appear mostly correspond to the subject's environment and history at that time. In addition, all negative effects that the subject accrues on their character will transfer to their physical body; the same does not occur for positive effects. This typically leads to the player dying from wounds accumulated in play. At this point, a message will appear next to the subject, roughly describing the player's cause of death.
In few cases, SCP-CN-120 will display a "Stage Clear" screen and continue to the next stage. Following this, the subject's physical and mental age will rapidly increase; testing has shown that the final age matches the information given in the name of the next level.
SCP-CN-120 can be closed by normal means. However, without external intervention, the player will not be able to exit the game, and must continue playing; except for the physical injury caused anomalously by the game, the subject cannot be injured normally, and in addition the subject does not need to consume sustenance, sleep or excrete waste during this period.
Record by: Dr. Yong
Note: Below, the player character is designated 120-A.
Experiment SCP-CN-120-001
Subject: D-5484110，29 years old, original name ██████ █████, had completed a test with SCP-CN-███ █ hours prior to testing.
Level Title: Stage 2: 29 test
Total Time: 20 minutes
Game Process: 120-A wears identical clothes to the subject, and has text reading ██████ █████D-5484110 above its head. 120-A is in a room that matches SCP-CN-███'s containment chamber; outside the chamber are several people in lab coats, with the names "Dr. ████ ██████", "Dr. █████ ██████", and "Research Assistant ███ ███". 15 minutes into the experiment, 120-A was attacked by SCP-CN-███ and died on the spot.
Physical Process: Following 120-A's death, wounds corresponding to an attack from SCP-CN-███ manifested on the subject's body; the subject lost vital signs five minutes later.
Message: Don't stay here too long.
Note: According to Dr. █████ ██████, the procedure and layout of the testing room matched the previous test, save for the death of D-5484110.
Experiment SCP-CN-120-002
Subject: D-365200, 45 years old, original name ██████ ██████, administered Class A amnestics before playing.
Level Name: Stage 3: 45 beta
Total Time: 1 hour
Game Process: 120-A's appearance matches the player, and is different from the previous experiment; the name indicator about 120-A reads only D-365200. 120-A appeared to be in the same room the subject was currently in, playing SCP-CN-120. 55 minutes later, 120-A suddenly died.
Physical Process: Largely similar to the game. Following 120-A's death, the subject developed symptoms of stroke and died 5 minutes later.
Message: The damage is in your head.
Note: Autopsy revealed that D-365200 had a 3-year-old brain tumor in his cranium.
Experiment SCP-CN-120-012
Subject: D-131139, 12 years old, war orphan, taken in from ████████ orphanage. Left leg previously blown off by a stray bullet
Level Name: Stage 1: 12 War; Stage 2: 32 life
Total Time: 2 hours 41 minutes
Game Process: At the start of the game, 120-A's limbs were fully intact. While playing, 120-A was forced to constantly dodge stray munitions; at 2 minutes and 20 seconds in its left leg is hit. 120-A successfully finishes the level and continues to Stage 2.
Physical Process: Subject felt equivalent pain when 120-A's left leg was hit, even though his left leg had been amputated. Subject rapidly aged, closed the game by himself and attempted to escape the observation room, but was caught and restrained by onsite security and administered Class B amnestics.
Message: None.
Note: This is the first experiment that didn't end in death. We have discovered a new effect.
Experiment SCP-CN-120-016
Subject: D-879103, 55 years old, former truck driver, taken in as Class D after an accident █ days ago
Level Name: Stage 3: 55 plus+
Total Time: 1 hour 27 minutes
Game Process: Game format differed from previous tests, instead presenting itself as a racing game. 120-A appears to be in the driver's seat of the truck and needs to dodge oncoming cars along the way. The top left of the screen displays ██:██, which was the current time.
21 minutes in, 120-A scraped two ███ brand cars, causing the cars' tyres to blow out; 45 minutes in, 120-A's car crashed into another truck, causing the other truck's driver to die. However, 120-A continued on up until 1 hour and 22 minutes in, at which point it crashed into a traffic light and died.
Physical Process: Subject suffered corresponding injuries as they were inflicted on 120-A, and died 5 minutes after 120-A died in the game.
Message: The wrong way to drive.
Notes: Autopsy revealed that D-879103 had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.850%.
Experiment SCP-CN-120-124
Subject: Junior Researcher Bo, 22 years old, created an unauthorized copy of SCP-CN-120 after a testing session.
Level Name: Stage 2: 22 Steal
Total Time: 3 hours 31 minutes
Game Process: 120-A's nameplate read Bo █████Junior Researcher/Personal User. All actions of the subject during the previous test are displayed, including spilling tea, dropping documents, lighting documents on fire while smoking, and burning the copy of SCP-CN-120.
Just as 120-A is about to put the copied SCP-CN-120 into the computer, the power in the room cuts out. 50 minutes later, the in-game power is restored; however, 120-A has disappeared.
Physical Process: After the power cut out inside the game, the power in the real room also went out; after the power was restored, the subject had disappeared and the screen was damaged immediately after displaying the above screen. Subject was discovered inside the casing of the computer having been [REDACTED]; the words "I can't just let you leave so easily." were engraved on their head. Subject was confirmed dead.
Message: None.
Notes: Confirmed that copies of the object do indeed retain anomalous qualities.
Incident CN-120-H: On 20██/██/██, Dr. Yong requested to test SCP-CN-120 himself. The experiment log is as follows:
Experiment SCP-CN-120-666
Record by: Research Assistant Yao ████
Subject: Yong ██████，92 years old，claims to have dreamt of "an order from SCP-CN-120" the night before and requested this test.
Level Name: Stage 5: 92 NearH
Total Time: [DATA EXPUNGED]
Game Process: 120-A started in a dilapidated wooden house; this is confirmed to be the childhood home of the subject. Following this, 120-A begins to retell the subject's life in a linear fashion.
During this period, representations of all tests the subject has participated in, such as anomaly testing on SCP-CN-███, durability testing on SCP-CN-███ and audio analysis of an incident involving SCP-CN-███. 120-A finally reaches a computer, which is thought to be the one running the subject is currently using, sits down, then slowly begins to glow.
At this point, the game displays the text "Stage All Clear", and 120-A slowly becomes more and more translucent.
Physical Process: Subject began crying and mumbling to himself (most of which was indiscernible). The clearer words spoken by the subject include:
- I have waited so long,
- This is the final moment.
- Everything in this universe,
- Could you, grant me new life, grant me everything?
- Rise.
- To the nation in heaven.
- Come.
The subject, like 120-A, slowly turned transparent.
The subject's body started to float and gradually rose upward.
The object became completely transparent.
Message: See Addendum 666-1.
Note: It has been confirmed that all personal information relating to Dr. Yong in our files have been destroyed for unknown reasons.
Addendum 666-1: Message from Experiment SCP-CN-120-666, displayed on the screen of the computer running SCP-CN-120 for two minutes before disappearing
Dearest Yong ██████, thank you very kindly for playing Heaven's Gate. Thanks to your continuous contributions to us here at Nirvana, we have harvested enough souls for us to continue making games. We look forward to inviting you to our game development team and providing more enjoyable experiences.
