## Summary

The first 7 colors travel through the first room. Blue launches himself over the spikes, landing safely, while Lime jumps down to the lower level and knocks out Black. Magenta then climbs up the ladder to the upper level to join Red, Orange, and Yellow. Red steps across the moving platform and to the other side but is spiked in the head and is killed. Orange and Yellow step onto the same moving platform, and Lime grabs onto it. Due to the heavy weight, the platform breaks, causing Lime to land in the spikes below, and forcing Yellow and Orange to the lower level. Black wakes up and travels ahead, Magenta leaps across to the other side and punches a falling spike in midair.

Up ahead, we see Maroon, Teal, and Purple inspecting a covered portal. As the progress further, the platform above them collapses as the colors from the previous room were traveling on it. Maroon is impaled by the platform while Black dies from the fall. During this time, Green, Olive, and Blue are bounced into the next area by the spring seen in the top left corner. Everyone gains their bearings after the fall and progress further. The cover for the portal then disappears, Teal was able to grab onto the platform and slide to safety but Purple falls into the portal. The portal sends Purple to the spring but she lands incorrectly, causing her to bounce back up and land on the side of the spring, dying in the process.

Elsewhere, another set of 7 colors make it through the maze. Peach attempts to cross but Tan falls out of nowhere and breaks the platform she is on. Tan dies, Peach falls in the hole, followed by White who couldn't react fast enough to avoid Tan's descent. White grabs onto Peach but the momentum swings the two of them across under a single spike. The spike falls and kills White while Peach lands safely on the ground, Cyan fails to cross a Spike Pit and dies. Grey, Brown, Navy, and Peach all progress from this room.

Back to the main group they meet up with Pink. It's revealed the Blue landed in a spike pit as Green inspects his body. The other from the previous room join them. Orange decided to lift up the spikes and flip them, but this causes Green to be killed by them. The group then progress onto the next room.

In the Lava Platform room, Olive is already about to make it across but he slips and fails the jump to the next platform, and falls into the lava. Yellow also slips and Pink tries to help him. They swing across but Pink lets go of Yellow while he gets back onto a platform, leaving Pink dangling above the lava. Teal almost slips but recovers while Orange and Magenta make it across. The platform Pink is holding onto gives way and causes Pink to fall into the lava ad Yellow progresses further.

The two groups then meet up in a Shifting room, with platforms and walls appearing and disappearing. As the platforms disappear, Orange clings onto a wall and is taken up into the air. Navy and Brown fall, but Navy was not able to save Brown from tripping onto a spike pit. Peach fell down along with Navy and Brown but gets separated. Orange is lifted up into the air while Yellow, Teal, Grey, and Magenta make it into the next room. Peach's platform then disappears, sending her into the lasers below, while Orange is dropped onto another wall that reappeared, killing him, while Navy moves on.

The remaining 5 colors pass along this room but Teal and Yellow are sent into a pit of spikes below them. The floor then transform into an elevator, assisting Navy, Magenta, and Grey onto the lower level and through a teleporter.

Magenta fails to wait for her body to pass through the teleporter, causing her to disassimulate into pieces. Navy enters in next but is shoot in the face by an arrow. Grey is deemed the sole survivor by Rainbow, who uses a giant hand to pick him up. He declares Grey the winner before killing him, by crushing him in his hand leaving no one as the winner.
