10 PAINFUL Secrets In Open World Games

3. Imperial Mausoleum - Goat Simulator 3

The only thing more painful than Goat Simulator 3's intentionally janky controls? That damn Imperial Mausoleum Easter egg.

The quest in question simply asks players to "use force to play a march," which the more perceptive players among us will realise is the game asking you to play Star Wars' Imperial March on a trio of bells at the top of the mauseoleum.

That's not too difficult to figure out, but the maddening challenge comes with actually playing the bells in the correct order to deliver an accurate rendition of the iconic tune.

Even if you're a Star Wars fan and musically inclined, this is much trickier than expected, and if you're neither, well, fuhgeddaboudit. 

Ultimately many players resorted to just looking up a video on YouTube to see the order in which the bells needed to be rung, in turn allowing you to unlock the Pridesabre 2.0 - a six-pronged lightsaber, because why the hell not?

Whether it was worth the abject headache of trying to figure this secret out the hard way, though, is another matter entirely.
