        1. You can just drop the “in” altogether

        2. Why just “sound like” when I can be?

      That rule doesn’t actually exist in English. It’s a Latin rule that some British asshole in the 1800s wanted to impose on English because he believed that Latin was a perfect language and anything that works differently from Latin is a flaw to be corrected.

          You mean, hard mode is what you play on.

        The point is that “in” doesn’t need to be in the text at all.
