Infiniminer

Infiniminer was a secret government project run by the ZIA (Zachntronics Industry Agency) during the 1960s to the 1980s in an attempt to create a video game good enough to defeat the Soviet Union; it was a counterattack on the Russian's own Tetris.

In this task, the ZIA used many unethical research practices, recruiting the evil scientists Milgram and Zimbardo to determine psychological facts about the gamers who would be playing Infiniminer. They also dosed ZIA employees with psychoactive drugs in order to investigate psychological effects and mind control, created eleven psychic children, and opened up portals to a strange alternate dimension inhabited by chitinous cruciforms and flesh interfaces.

Eventually, Infiniminer was created, the most addictive video game made so far - though not addictive or good enough to destroy the Soviet Union. Using the results from the Infiniminer program, Mojang was able to create Minecraft, and finally achieve the original goals.
