Cool, sure, good, probably not. I've never played Halo so I didn't entirely know what I was doing (do I shoot the blue guys too? it's not letting me through so I guess I do), and I don't doubt people couldn't even get what it meant by shoot. And god forbid anyone with disabilities that affects their mouse accuracy, or needs a screen reader tries to use it

Haven't looked at the devconsole but it'd probably be easily bypassed by someone dedicated.

Agree on the first part, but for the second... I think it depends on what your threat model is.

If you want to stop a dedicated attacker ready to spend time to attack your site, it won't work, but nothing will. If you want to stop a generic bot going over the internet and submitting all forms it finds with spam, this will work, and might even work better than wide-spread solution for which the bot has a countermeasure.

It has the advantage of being novel for the user rather than doing the same Google/Cloudflare/... CAPTCHA for the 10th time that day.
