 "The key to Approaching Infinity's success is its combination of simplicity and surprising depth..." --Waltorious Writes About Games.

 "...the gameplay is both fun and unlimited, and just as likely to be as fun today as it will be ten years from now." --John Breeden II, GiN - Game Industry News.

 "But if you know what you're getting into with this type of game, Approaching Infinity is a landmark for the genre, and well worth the investment." --Doom, TeamPlayerGaming.
