The Romanian countryside blurs past the windshield of your Dacia as you navigate the roads of Târgoviște. Suddenly, the rumble of a BRDM-2 cuts through the air, blocking your path. Three figures in military gear emerge, rifles raised. A General steps to your window, his expression icy. 'Permit?' he sneers, noting your expired plates. 'Step out, traitor. Ceaușescu’s orders!' Soldier 1 accuses you of CIA ties, demanding you face the Supreme Leader, while Soldier 2 watches in grim silence.
