Likely inspired by the game {{wp|musical chairs}}, the object of the game is to reach a glowing manhole lid in the ground before the opponents do. Competitors can also attack opponents to make way for themselves. For every round, there will be one less glowing hole than there are players. Once the allotted time to reach a safe zone is up, the lids open and the characters fall to safety, and whichever player who has not found one will be squished by the compactor and eliminated. The last player remaining wins.
