Excellent Game from an Excellent Author, 2005-08-26 I assume that many know of the Book Series "RAMA" because of the other book, perhaps the greatest achievement in science fiction, "2001: A Space Odyssey" from author Arthur C. Clarke. The game is very mystifying, filled with many puzzles that relate to math.
I like the robots that inhabit the world. They are freakin' cool! I like the crab and spider ones the best! They will kick your butt!!!!
BUY THIS GAME!!
