      Play it today. You need to go in blind. It’s straightforward to learn and super rewarding to ay.

          I’ll give you $10,000 to swap brains with you so I can play it for the first time again 😄

      At first, the game will not make sense. But somewhere around the 20 minute mark (it varies depending on what you do) you will encounter The Event. It will happen. You will know it has happened. It will be, unmistakably, The Event. Nothing else could be The Event. Nothing else could possibly be as momentous as The Event. And then you will have your first real understanding of what the game is about, and it will be very, very exciting.

      After that happens, look at the computer in the back of your ship (to the right as you enter). For the rest of the game this will be your most important tool. You’ll understand why. Once it happens.

      Have fun.

      A friend begged me to play this and I just didn’t for a couple years despite owning it. Once I finally did it quickly became an all-time favorite. You should fix this yourself.

      This is one of the best games I have ever played. I know this phrase goes around every day, but I wholeheartedly mean it.

      This is the type of game you can only place once, and the experience is incomparable to much of anything else
