Untrusted is a Javascript adventure game where the only way you can win is by rewriting parts of its source code as you go along. For example, in the very first level, your character (a simple “@” character) is imprisoned inside four walls (represented by “#” characters). To reach level 2, you have to edit the code that creates the walls. Simply deleting it will do the trick, as shown here:
But it soon gets much more complicated. There are 22 levels in all — level 22 just displays the end credits, but it took me a little while to figure out how to get there. The game’s backing music is quite good, too.
