What is this?


A single HTML file. 4.7 MB. Opens with a double click.
No installation. No internet required. No account.

It is Tetris — but when you clear 4 lines at the same time, the game transforms.
It begins asking you 20 questions about science fiction cinema.

Each player receives a codename generated from their year of birth.
The game calculates which planet your signal points to.
A star map is revealed question by question.
One wrong answer and everything resets to zero.

When you reach the end, the Euclid phrase appears in four languages, the Milky Way map with the real coordinates of the Sun in the galaxy, and a song that begins at exactly second 86.

Easter eggs


There are three hidden modes. They activate when you enter specific names at the start screen. Finding them is part of the game.

One of them is a tribute. If you know why TARS is the most honest robot in cinema, you might figure it out.

The story behind it


Operation Monolith began as a personal project — a transmission sent from one point to another, across time.

"Euclid postulates that between any two points a line can be drawn.
Every broken heart mends as the realization of a love lost was an experience of love.
And that can never be taken away or gone.
Acceptance, forgiveness, closure. Love begets love."
