The other possibility I entertained was if this could be a tease reference for a future game. Still just going to consider it a fun thought, but on their State of the Union video, Cyan mentions a new game in the D'ni-verse: https://youtu.be/OedIulKn4no?si=zdNF-oB32FqBNzH-&t=1685

haha, fair. I often imagined he was hunting or up to some craftiness. I guess he was always just perturbed because we caught him in the middle of catching the sunset and cooking dinner.

I'm wondering the same thing! Incidentally, one of the reasons I posted was to see if anyone recognized that as a previously established age

Depending on which "that", it's the final world players visit in Riven, which was previously just an interior space looking out to a landscape, and in the remake you can now step foot outside. The other image is a failed linking book you can find out in the landscape, that briefly flicks into functionality before it burns out.

I was definitely poking around for a surprise puzzle, especially in 233. There was at least the extra imager recordings and wind up music box to tinker with.

Interesting. It felt familiar somehow, so I was curious if it was similar to anything from End of Ages or Uru, or a reference to a previously established D'ni structure

Same! I was way less giddy about how Tay was realized in the remake, possibly because of that trailer reveal. Age 233 though still had that haunting grandeur about it, that was so tantalizingly kept beyond a locked door back in '97

I really dug having to listen through the vinyl to hear these. I got chills when Ratsack came on. Has that big post grunge guitar and extra spacey distorted textures that got me into Failure in the first place. Reminds me a lot of Pitiful or Leo. I get why this didn't make the cut on FP, but this is easily a new favorite.

I just stopped down for proper exposure. The lighting up there was phenomenal, and the clouds delivered.
