Our players love the game so much, that a number of them have started documenting it for us.  Which is awesome, since it gives a unique perspective on the game, and frees us up for creating more useful objects like toilets and fleshlights.

Our players love the game so much, that a number of them have started documenting it for us. Which is awesome, since it gives a unique perspective on the game, and frees us up for creating more useful objects like toilets and fleshlights. New players might want to start at the 2012 Newbie Guide.

They still contain useful information, but have been either superseded by more recent guides or made inaccurate by changes over the years, so they're recorded here for historical interest.
