Now I don't mean the type of game where it isn't clear what needs to be done, or how it might be done. I mean the type of game where you're scrambling to cover multiple serious problems and everything seems to be going wrong. It's the most satisfying when you manage to get things settled up. It's a fun, crazy mess.

IOW, a game where Obligation is the meta-mechanic.

I think at the end of the day a satisfying lesson was learnt; don't ever go to the smugglers moon without a watertight plan for parking your car! XD
