I don't think you can win this game. On the box, it says it's a tragedy.

The title of this post is a paraphrase of my favorite line from Kentucky Route Zero.

The idea of a game as a tragedy, as a tragedy being based on my own fail state is irresistably interesting to me.

It seems almost obvious. Aren't Hamlet and Pac-Man always headed towards the same inevitable doom?
