A walking simulator isn’t much fun if all you do is walk. In time there will be backstory and things to discover, but first easter eggs and mini-games. These are inconsequential things for the player to discover and pass the time with. The idea is that as your character wanders, either as an AI or player controlled, you might see something interesting and decide to investigate.

In this update we’ve added the first Mini-Game and Easter Egg. As you wander there is a chance you will find an arcade machine. By dropping into first person mode (F1) and interacting (E) with the machine you can play the mini game. The machines are not in fixed locations, you will need to actively look for them. Once you have played the game, they disappear from that location. Grab the chance to play when you can.
