I've often wondered how the world will end, and now I finally have my answer: SB Nation's diabolically addictive "Bill Belichick Offseason Simulator."
The game is an old-school, choose-your-own-adventure style flash game, taking players inside the twisted, but brilliant, football mind of New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick like never before. The goal is to complete a typical offseason day of football wizardry for the Hoodie -- but it's much more difficult than it seems.
The game is a bear to complete, and will undoubtedly test the mettle, moxie and endurance of even the most hardened Patriots fans and video gamers. Unexpected pitfalls and plot-twists are as plentiful as the number of hoodies in Belichick's closet.
I can proudly say that I beat the game this morning and was rewarded with a wildly entertaining Belichick-themed video, underscored by a band I'm sure is in Belichick's personal collection (spoiler, it's Creed).
Think you can best the simulator? Good luck.
Play the "Bill Belichick Offseason Simulator" HERE at your own peril.
P.S. There is an alternative path to beating the simulator that I also uncovered, whisking Belichick into a far more interesting and dangerous territory than the NFL. Try and find it if you dare.
