What is 60 Parsecs!?
A text-heavy survival adventure set in a Cold War-inspired space age, where nuclear strikes force astronauts to evacuate their station. Each procedural run starts with a timed scramble for crew and supplies, then shifts to choices aboard a shuttle: ration food, manage relationships, craft essentials, and send expeditions to other worlds.
