A Game of a Different Style

[Men'Tan Zeran]

*shocked*

I have no clue...

[Binary the Great]

Forgetting once more, I shall update with another clue.

A4) *NO GOOGLE*

"I wake, I work, I sleep, I die;
The black of space my only sky.
And all that I have ever been
Shall never touch the earth again."

"Begin with a function of arbitrary complexity. Feed it values, "sense data". Then, take your result, square it, and feed it back into your original function, adding a new set of sense data. Continue to feed your results back into the original function ad infinitum. What do you have? The fundamental principle of human consciousness."

"Human behavior is economic behavior. The particulars may vary, but competition for limited resources remains a constant. Need as well as greed have followed us to the stars, and the rewards of wealth still await those wise enough to recognize this deep thrumming of our common pulse."

[Steedo]

Binary, I have know idea what game that could possibly be, but you are making me want to play it really really badly. Just to be random I'll guess "The Chaos Engine". That game had some good Steam Punk flavour, but not nearly enough, and the game play wasn't all that exciting.

[Binary the Great]

Sorry, Steedo, but you are not correct for the game. I shall also update with another clue.

"Einstein would turn over in his grave. Not only does God play dice, but the dice are loaded."

[Men'Tan Zeran]

That sounds like an awesome game, but I'm stumped.

[Binary the Great]

Another update, yay!

"I sit in my cubicle, here on the motherworld.
When I die, they will put my body in a box and
dispose of it in the cold ground.
And in all the million ages to come, I will never
breathe or laugh or twitch again.
So won't you run and play with me here among the
teeming mass of humanity?
The universe has spared us this moment."

I know it Binary, I actually know it! Sid Mier's Alpha Centari, correct?

I actually knew it several posts ago, but I wasn't paying much attention to this board (haven't read it in... weeks).

[Binary the Great]

Thank the Force someone FINALLY got it! *giggle*

Yes, it was Sid Mier's Alpha Centauri.

[cyberpaladin85]

I guess I should come up with one of my own now. So, here it is.

NO GOOGLE!!!

A5) "Still trying to protect that sword from us?"

[Binary the Great]

A5 sounds like something from... Oh, goodness! What was that on game Minsc was in?!?

[Steedo]

Minsc was in Baldur's Gate 1 and 2. But I dodn't remember that bit.

No, it's not from that game. Here's another hint (NO GOOGLE):

A5) "Whoever weilds this blade commands power eternal. Know that just as the blade rends flesh, so does power scar the soul."

[Binary the Great]

I think I got it! Warcraft 3, by chance? Frostmourne?

[cyberpaladin85]

Quite correct, Binary, the quotes are from that part of Warcraft III.

[Binary the Great]

That second line was what gave it away. *glee* Anywho, back to my dominance.

A6: *Again, no Google*

[Men'Tan Zeran]

No clue.

[Steedo]

Is Question B a game called "Freaky Fliers"?

[Men'Tan Zeran]

Did we forget about it again?

[Steedo]

Forget about what?
