AYS in the Moving Mine 2 Sprunkey Nikita 12`s Take is a 35-character elimination simulator by Eskimo Nikita, @Nikita_12K. Start the show, follow your favorite contestant, and watch a randomly placed mine thin out the crowd. The characters move automatically; your role is to observe the unfolding tournament, check names with the pointer, and restart for another outcome.

How the moving-mine rounds work

The opening monitors explain that the mine’s placement is random. After the introduction and starting countdown, the cast wanders around a bright arena divided into green and pink halves. A large overhead display counts down from ten while contestants spread out, overlap, and change direction.

When the display reaches zero, it flashes TIME OVER. A huge STOP sign enters the foreground, and the contestants halt. A small white disc with a red center then appears at a new location. The danger comes from where the cast has stopped relative to that mine: characters caught by the blast are eliminated, while survivors return to walking in the next round.

The elimination animation makes the result unmistakable. Affected characters can enlarge, spin, and tumble out of the arena. Several contestants can disappear from one blast, so a busy crowd can become a much smaller group quickly. Other placements leave the remaining cast intact and send the same survivors into another countdown.

A cast worth following

Nikita’s take brings together Eskimo Nikita, Eskicat, Eski Bot, Mary Stela, Google Chrome 2, and many other characters. Rumi, Zoey, and Mira also join the lineup. The mix of cats, robots, human figures, and unusual silhouettes gives the tournament much of its appeal.

Pointer name labels help when the characters are unfamiliar or crowded together. Rest the pointer over a contestant to reveal a speech bubble with their name. Following one recognizable character is easier than trying to track all 35 at once, particularly during the early rounds when overlapping bodies obscure smaller details.

The split arena, drifting clouds, and three connected monitors give the show a strong visual identity. Expressions change around the danger phase, and the oversized STOP sign makes the transition easy to spot. That sign briefly covers much of the cast, however, so the moment just after it leaves is the clearest opportunity to compare positions with the mine.

Controls and practical viewing tips

Input	Effect
Run / restart control	Begins a fresh tournament, including the introduction
Pointer over a contestant	Reveals the character’s name
Pause / continue control	Freezes the show, then resumes the same progress
Fullscreen control	Enlarges the arena for easier viewing

This is a game to follow rather than a movement challenge. Testing directional keys, space, stage clicks, and dragging did not reveal a way to steer contestants. There is no demonstrated dodge technique to practice or click timing that saves a favorite.

For a clearer session, use fullscreen and pick a contestant before the crowd begins shrinking. Watch the ground once the STOP sign withdraws, then compare who remains after the elimination animation. Use pause when you want to inspect the lineup; use restart when you want a fresh result.

Victory is not guaranteed

Two complete tournaments produced different endings. In the first, the remaining contestants were eliminated and the monitors announced TIE, with no current winner. In the second, Google Chrome 2 became the sole survivor and received the large gold VICTORY display. His pointer label confirmed the winning character’s identity.

That difference gives restarting a purpose: the next tournament can change both the elimination order and the final result. Losing your favorite does not interrupt the show or ask you to retry a particular round. The surviving cast continues until the tournament reaches its result screen.

The late game also changes the viewing rhythm. With only a few characters left, their positions become easier to read, but a mine may land away from everyone and prolong the showdown. The suspense comes from those placements and the next survivor reveal. Players who enjoy character tournaments have something to root for; players seeking a test of reflexes will find little direct control.
