The game, believed to have been developed in Russia in 2013, has become one of the most controversial online games worldwide.

The game “Blue Whale Challenge” gives a player 50 days, with one mission for each day, to complete all 50 levels. It starts off with innocent things like watching a horror movie at 4:30am but eventually moves on to horrifying missions, like killing an animal, self mutilation and taking drugs.

The game's final mission is “Jump off a high building. Take your Life”. And to make sure players follow, they are told that their parents would be murdered unless they take their own life.

There have been reports of children taking their lives whilst playing the game in Argentina, Brazil, Bulgaria, Chile, China, India, Italy, Kenya, Pakistan, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Spain, Turkey, US, and Uruguay.

The game was reportedly developed by 21-year-old expelled psychology student Philipp Budikin. He was arrested in 2016 for inciting at least 16 schoolgirls to kill themselves through the game. He confessed to the crimes and is now in a Russian jail.

Budikin said he thinks of his victims as “biological waste” and told police that they were “happy to die” and he was “cleansing society”, according to a Daily Mail report.
