The gameplay was very addictive, and I liked the ending too. The news headlines were very fun to read. Excellent game!

Use of the limitation
You start a robot hand startup company to help people. As you play, the game gets completely chaotic as you manage 6 buildings at once. The news ticker will progress the story, depicting a story in which your robot hands are destroying the economic and political systems of the world on their own agenda, there's even an ending sequence which depicts a dead earth where all material resources have been allocated to building more Handy robots. Also, you know, "hands."
Cookies eaten
We were munching on some chocolate espresso beans mostly, probably like 20 of them. I think Will came in with some kind of brownie or chocolate muffin at some point but didn't eat much of it because his tum-tum hurt (don't worry he's feeling better).
