Developers have come up with creative ways to punish cheaters in games, from disabling their guns mid-fight to publicly executing them in EVE Online. Valve banned 40,000 Dota 2 cheaters by luring them into a trap, while Rockstar made a car explode whenever a Grand Theft Auto Online player tried to get inside it. Mediatonic created "Cheater Island" in Fall Guys, but eventually blocked cheaters from logging in entirely. Outriders marked cheaters with a spider web-like symbol and forced them to play with other cheaters. Niantic hid rare Pokémon from cheaters in Pokémon Go.
