Packaged with Vid Grid and Blue Lightning, this device saw only 11 game releases including one based on Highlander: The Animated Series.

Game designer John Harris notes that this item "ameliorates one of the flaws in rogue like design" by forcing players to actually be more careful as they experience more of the game in which it appears. Using this item causes an orchestral flourish to play while the player can only watch in horror as its effect occurs.
