@GreenSkyOverMe Haha, that’s funny. There’s a recent video game “The Game of Sisyphus”, which does end with Zeus congratulating Sisyphus on reaching the top, and then rolling the boulder back down.
It has some philosophical dialogue before. Iirc it boils down to nihilism, which makes much more sense. “There is no sense in life, just keep rolling the boulder upwards.”
