    You end up stranded on a foreign planet. You need to build a rocket so you can go home, but unfortunately you have to build a whole manufacturing facility to do that. As if this wasn’t hard enough, the inhabitants of the planet are environmentalist assholes and will do anything in their power to stop you.

        Wow. Would you have got it without “never ravine” or “convict”? I figured it would have been impossible otherwise so I added those in.

          Never Ravine actually confused me for a while I thought you were talking about a named location in a game, I even tried looking it up lol. This is also my most favorite game though and I was in the thread specifically looking for someone to mention it.

              I just added convict+volcanoe and thought Morrowind. It’s been mentioned a few times but I wanted to say:

    Incompetent engineer arrives to work late, botches an experiment, and ends up ripping a hole in the universe to a world full of “creatures”. He then mercilessly murders the scared creatures while sabotaging efforts by security forces, and an elderly man in a suit, to resolve the situation.
