The siren wails, a long, mournful cry that echoes through empty streets. A single red light pulses on the screen before you, casting long shadows across the room. The Emergency Announcement appears, stark white text on a black background. This is your emergency broadcast system announcing the commencement of the Annual Purge sanctioned by the U.S. Government. All crime, including murder, will be legal for 12 continuous hours. All emergency services will be unavailable. And, for the first time since its inception, no one has been granted special immunity from the Purge. No citizen or group will be exempt. Blessed be our New Founding Founding Fathers and America, a nation reborn. The screen goes dark. Now, you... what is your first move?
