A small introductory game with one tricky puzzle, February 11, 2022
by cgasquid (west of house)

this is your basic "you wake up on a spaceship with amnesia" game. the game is small but not cramped, and the puzzles are mostly easy. oddly, while the game has four (technically five) NPCs, you have very limited interaction with any of them; they either give you items and information or they're shallowly implemented obstacles.

the bravura puzzle near the end involves (Spoiler - click to show)rewiring a circuit board with limited and outdated information. it's a complex bit of coding and requires some experimentation.

all in all, this isn't a bad game, and it's a good introduction to IF in general. there are no unfair puzzles and you're never expected to read the author's mind. i wouldn't recommend it to experienced players, who can probably whip through it in about 20 minutes.
