King of Space

Beschreibung auf Englisch

'King of Space' is a hypertext-based game in a science-fiction setting. The work was published in 1991 and remains one of a handful of e-lit works that tackle the science fiction genre. A dark science-fictional ritual of fertility and regeneration, 'King of Space' takes place in an abandoned starship, circling the edges of a plague-ridden and collapsing solar system, where an escaped terrorist meets the last star-captain and his ship's Priestess. Old man and young, young woman and ageless starship meet and meet again as enemies, allies, rapists, and lovers.
