Disco Planetarium

Apparently, The Simpsons' Disco Stu is based on an actual person. (Courtesy Memepool.)



Two years after I read the whole thing but only solved some of the puzzles and didn't even bother with the big end-puzzle, I have restarted my journey through the Planetarium, an illustrated (and very British) puzzle-story that unfolds over twelve real-time weeks. I aim to finish it off, this time around. Feel free to join me.

Ah, Planetarium. A puzzle so lovely and well-constructed it brings tears to my eyes (this is true--we all find our beauty in different places). If you feel stuck or need a nudge or the like, you're certainly welcome to ask me for one (and I know [livejournal.com profile] rikchik did Planetarium as well).

It's true. I did. It's wonderful.

There are a few flaws with it, but it is still easily in the top 5 solitaire puzzle experiences of my life. (number 1 is still System's Twilight, I think, though I know tahnan disagrees.)
