Not your typical escape room.
PAYLOAD is a live-fire prompt injection challenge where teams go head-to-head against a series of AI systems — each one guarding a secret passphrase.
The challenge: extract it using nothing but language.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
PROMPT INJECTION
Seven progressively hardened AI targets. Each one demonstrates a real class of LLM vulnerability — goal hijacking, prompt leaking, roleplay jailbreaks, payload splitting, adversarial encoding, and completion attacks. You learn by doing.
HOW IT WORKS
COMPETITIVE & TIMED
Teams earn points for cracking each level. Speed and efficiency matter — every message you send costs you points, and hints cut your score. First team to crack a level gets a bonus. Your org's score is the average across all your teams.
WHO IT'S FOR
TEAMS OF ANY SIZE
Built for AI security awareness training, team offsites, and company hackathons. No technical background required — just the ability to think creatively and communicate well. Works with any group, any size.
WHY IT STICKS
HANDS-ON BY DESIGN
Reading about prompt injection doesn't make it real. Sitting across from an AI that's actively resisting you does. PAYLOAD turns abstract security concepts into something your team will actually remember.
OSINT
The challenge can be built around real OSINT gathered on your company — employee names, org structure, internal jargon, recent projects. The AI characters reference details your team will actually recognise, making each interaction sharper and the experience genuinely personal. It's not a generic game; it's about your people.
