Rimworld is coming out with the Biotech expansion in a few days and I honestly feel like a little kid waiting for Christmas.
For those who aren't aware of it, Rimworld is a colony management game where you try to help a handful of people survive on an alien planet. There are quite a few ways you can go about achieving that, ranging from the benign to the downright malevolent. No matter what you do though, you're guaranteed to have some funny stories by the end of it.
My personal favourite encounter was somebody desperately pleading for shelter at my colony... because they were being chased by a swarm of man-hunting guinea pigs. I took them in and prepared for the attack. It wasn't long before the wheeking horde descended on my colony.
Even though I had assault rifles and sandbag entrenchments, some of the guinea pigs made it into my ranks. They incapacitated one colonist and inflicted multiple injuries on two others before they were finally stopped. I was able to get them medical treatment but three people were doomed to live with the knowledge they were almost killed by guinea pigs.
So anybody play it? Got any stories to share?
(Just remember that RF is PG-13 and Rimworld... is Rimworld. Pick which stories you decide to share carefully)
