Oh wow, I played this game a lot about 15 years ago. I was in my teens and this game is the reason I learned linux system administration so I could run my own server. I built a computer with junk parts from my friend's dad's old parts bin and installed ubuntu on it.
I struggled with linux then but learned a lot. Some say I am still struggling with linux to this day.
