This happens with many such games, but it's a side effect.
The games are designed to be entertaining; if your perception of time
changes, that's fine, but that wasn't the intention of the programmer.

But what if it were the intention of the programmer?
Suppose you had a game which was *designed* to change
the player's perception of time. Or space. Or...

Any ideas about how this could be done?
