Password Challenge

Creating a password is normally a small annoyance that takes four seconds. Here it is a slowly tightening trap. You start with a rule any password could satisfy, and every time you satisfy it a new rule appears underneath, each one more unreasonable than the last. The rules interact. Fixing one breaks another. Somewhere around rule fourteen you will realise your password contains an emoji, a swimming animal, today’s weekday and a number that has to add up correctly, and that all of these are now fighting each other.

How to Play

Type into the single password box. Rules appear one at a time and stay visible, turning green when satisfied and red when broken. You win when every rule is green at the same moment, which is harder than satisfying them one by one because earlier rules do not stop applying. Nothing you type is stored or transmitted, so feel free to be honest in the rules that ask for honesty.
