Pirates of Croteam's The Talos Principle are reporting being trapped in elevators on the game's Steam forum – which it turns out is the development team's deliberate anti-piracy measure.
Devolver Digital, the game's publisher, tweeted part of the Steam discussion and praised Croteam's efforts.
Well played, @Croteam. Well played. http://t.co/jHO3BiQoPN pic.twitter.com/UYfYXPlbrH

Serious Sam 3: BFE, another Croteam game, featured an immortal red scorpion which could kill players repeatedly. Recently, it emerged that certain features in Far Cry 4 were absent for pirates.
