10 Video Game Buttons You REALLY SHOULD PRESS

7. How Can You Resist? - Zero Escape 3: Zero Time Dilemma

What's better than a big red button, I hear you all ask? Well, a big blue button of course! Fortunately for us, Zero Escape 3: Zero Time Dilemma is one of the few games to feature one of these items.

The visual novel follows a bunch of people who have been kidnapped and are forced to play the "Decision Game", where different teams are ushered through challenges with deadly consequences for failure.

It's a great concept, but no Saw-like trap would come without a 'should you press the mystery button' dilemma? This comes during the Healing Room section, where the player gets to decide if they want to hit the great big button sitting in the room.

You should, though, because you'll be treated to one of the most memorable endings. Whack the button, and the scene cuts to outside of the facility, as the whole thing is destroyed in a huge explosion.

Hey, at least that means the game's over.
