      @Chris Hollins I tend to be detail-oriented. And in this case, it’s because it actually happened. It was my lower spine that hit said corner, btw.
      Although it’s far from the closest I’ve been to dying (I almost got hit by a pickup truck once while crossing the street even though I took every precaution I could have taken. The issue that caused me to almost get hit was timing. It came around the bend as I was right in the middle of the lane it was in).

    Elite: Dangerous takes place in a realistic depiction of our galaxy (realistic in its astronomy anyway). Ships can jump between stars, but the maximum distance you can go in a single jump is limited, and the further away from the centre you go the more spread out the stars become. Eventually they get so far apart it's impossible to jump any further.

    Nice to see Zork Nemesis in this list, probably my all time favourite game; awesome art direction (even the scissors bit), sound design and music, and while it doesn't look much now, looked great for the time; it's a game that sorely needs an HD remake.
    I don't know if it counts or not, but I'd mention Descent; those are games which, by design, there is only one way out, as blowing up the reactor and escaping the mine is literally the objective of every level (sometimes they mix things up by having a boss robot instead of the reactor).
