In the early years of interstellar travel, Earth's brave explorers discovered the remains of an alien culture eons old and incredibly complex. Human progress leapt forward at an astonishing rate as the secrets of the alien artifacts were brought back from the stars. You get to write the next chapter in this exciting saga. The game was meant to be cooperative, and every player has their own "secret mission" card. When you came across an artifact floating in space, everyone would use various controls in tandem (keys/joystick) to try to match the thing's position, color, sound, and rotation , with each person responsible for a single axis.
