''Giuoco Terapia'' (aka ''Lame Therapy'') is a 40–minute film made in 2016 by Italian Internet comics [=RedeZ=] and Synergo, aka ''Quei Due Sul Server'' (“Those Two on the Server”). It is a parody of a different Italian movie, ''Game Therapy'', known for being incredibly bad (think the Italian ''Film/{{Pixels}}'' starring the Italian LetsPlay/PewDiePie).

The plot is as follows: Michele and Matteo, usually known by their nicknames Miché and Teo, are two [[DawsonCasting supposedly 16–year–old]] gamers who spend their days playing ''CallOfDuty''. Teo’s life isn’t going well: He is being taken advantage of by a girl he has a crush on and constantly beaten up by a gang of bullies. One day, Miché invites him to try a [[DeepImmersionGaming full–immersion video game]] he developed, but things go awry when it turns that [[WinToExit the only way to leave the game is to beat it]] — and Teo only has seven lives.

-->'''Miché''': You see, my game needs a lot of memory. We’re talking about preloading over 500 terabytes of data. Dumping it all on one server would leave traces in the tail domain, and render the code vulnerable, so I’ll log into the hotel net, but not the Wi–Fi net. Too risky. I’ll log into the circuit of the time cards. They’re punched every six hours with a deviation of five minutes and 16 seconds. This creates an ultradynamic IP. Even a hacker operating on a low level won’t see it in the net’s upper layers.
