No shade, but never heard of Universe Sandbox?

I hadn’t! Thanks for sharing.

Did you use it?

How?

What did you enjoy the best?

If not, why not?

Never played it; I tend to get bored with pure sandboxes pretty quickly, but I have massive respect for what it was doing.

If massive respect, why not try? Was the cost an impediment?

David Muccigrosso's avatar

Yeah, just not worth $20-30 to toy with something for a few hours and put it back down.

This is a great idea. In fact, I'm going to have my kids try out the space game as well to share more feedback. I love the idea of the shop based on articles.

If i recall correctly, you'd tried to put together a network of your readers. I'd be keen to revisit that with an offline/ real world meetup option. For instance, it would be cool to have a city based chapter of your readership.

I do want to invest much more in community, but I feel like meetups are not quite enough. What would be something cooler? Something where you don’t just go and maybe find interesting debate topics, but have some memorable fun?

Board game nights? Travel groups to cities or regions you've covered?
