I tried a game that came free with my GOG account years ago, MagRunner.

Overpopulation, huge zaibatsu that is into digitizing people and they develop an incredible new technology in space: MagTech! Magnetic technology!

I guess the devs were being tongue-in-cheek at the time, but now it's not funny anymore.

Terrible Portal wanna-be, by the way.
