Hell is over-run, and I hope my music may inspire players whilst they punish endless sinning hordes! Now get to work…

🔥 A Message from Hell to YOU 🔥

[h2]Listen up, pitiful souls![/h2]

Our HHR (Hell’s Human Resources) Team would like to share with you an important announcement that will make your mortal hearts tremble. We have achieved a momentous milestone: Our software for punishing filthy sinners, HERETIC'S FORK: PROBATION, registered more than 100,000 applications for the holy position of Hell Manager that have flooded our infernal gates! It seems there are more wretched souls craving the power and glory of ruling the underworld than we ever imagined!



We must admit, your willingness to defend the rift and prevent the sinners from escaping has caught my attention. Your desire to dominate the depths of darkness has far surpassed our expectations. Such ambition is almost commendable… almost…

But don't get too comfortable, little Hell Managers. This is only the beginning of your dangerous journey. The waves of sinners attempting to flee their rightful torment will only grow in intensity and despair. You must fortify your defenses, sharpen your infernal strategies, and prepare for battles that will make even the bravest among you SHIVER .



We extend our gratitude to those who have praised their destinies and submitted their applications. Your audacity has amused us, and we shall watch your progress with pleasure.
Prepare yourselves, Hell Managers. The depths of darkness await, and the fate of Hell lies in your ruthless hands.

Sincerely, 😈

HHR
