Screaming-fast IP rate limiting. Call duration.dungeon! in your controller (or anywhere, actually) to block the client's IP for the given amount of time.

class CastleController < ApplicationController
  def index
    1_000_000.years.dungeon!
  end
end

This will return a 406 and block the client from hitting any part of the app until the time limit expires. If they make any more requests before the time is up their sentence will start all over again.

If you want to use something other than IP address to identify the client, use the unacceptable! hook.

class CastleController < ApplicationController
  unacceptable! { session[:user_id] }
end
