There's a brief mention in the game Creeper World 3 of an extinct civilization who were known to have "entire fields of study devoted to theories they knew to be false". The Ultimate Worldbuilders.

@Felthry Oh hey! Someone else who plays Creeper World 3!

It's one of the few real-time strategy games I can be good at, and I love the combo of implacable but ultimately dumb enemies with slow network-building spatial planning and energy management. :-}

@emanate Creeper World is excellent. I'm horrible at RTS in general but Creeper World is fun.

@Felthry Yeah. I've played and bought all three of them, from their website before the Steam versions even existed. They were nice enough to also let you activate them on Steam free if you'd already bought them before. :-}

....this reminds me, I need to check out their new game, Particle Fleet. :-}

@emanate The first two I got pre-steam, third one got on Steam. Particle Fleet is part of the steam sale!

I should have thought to ask about the steam activation thing. I just re-bought them on Steam. Oh well, sending my support!
