My mistake here was to assume everyone knows the original game of which this is a clone, but I guess it's just as old and obscure now as it is seminal. Oh well, will know better next time. Thank you!
I noted on the game page it was based on something else, but haven't tried it before; I certainly have in mind to check it out. We each have our own experiences; part of the fun creating things is reinterpreting our own experiences for those who haven't experienced them before. Still, it was a great job, and I enjoyed it. Thanks. :)
