So... you simply sit down and play around? There's no goals?

Fine enough by me, I just wish they'd stated that before entering the game. Makes me frustrated when I can't figure out what I need to IF ANYTHING :-)

hey for all i know there is a way to "win", but life is more fun if you pretend there isn't.  plus if you meet god when you die you can just tell him you didn't know the rules.

FWIW- 'No Point' games are nice sometimes. Noctis is a good example: Mapping a Universe inhabited by Cats. As is Dust, where you are a speck of dust.

Naw..."I didn't know the rules" won't fly. Even when kids play, they make up their own rules, and judge each other based on those rules. It is human nature to make up rules where none exist, and if God is God, He knows them all and you will be judged by them. Great Googly-boogly! Even CalvinBall has rules!
All children left unattended will be given a mocha and a puppy.

well said, and good advice to live by.
make up your own rules.

ps.
print out this thread for when you get hauled into court and need to show the judge something for your defense.  ;)
