Today I decided to play a free game. "Moonbase Alpha" is a small game that sets you on the Moon. There are two modes, Free play and Competitive. Competitive gives you 25 minutes to repair the oxygen tanks and power. Once the 25 minutes are up, you fail. Free play is the same objective, except there is no time limit and you are free to roam the base.
I first tried Competitive mode. Failing to listen to the instructions I was given, I spent a good 15 minutes messing around with the tiny rovers. All while my poor friends in the colony were slowly choking on CO2. When I finally realized what I was suppose to do I had about 10 minutes left. In that time I was able to repair some couplings and two CO2 filters. Sadly, this was not enough time and they slowly died knowing that the only person they could count on, was playing with the rovers.
I'm kind of a sadist, so I probably would always choke my little inhabited colonist bastards.
