available on Xbox 360 (and eventually the next-generation Xbox One), Mac,
smartphones and Raspberry Pi. On the PC, the system requirements are fairly
minimal.
You'll need an Intel P4 processor or equivalent, 2GB of RAM and the
latest version of Java. For a full list of requirements, head to help

a few hundred kilobytes, although as you play it more and more and it renders
new areas, this will grow - though only to a few megabytes. To install the game
