  It's really quite cool, though not exactly a "game."  It's a
  computer implementation of the I-Ching; in its original incarnation
  you tossed yarrow sticks to predict the future.  On Synchronicity,
  you just hit a few keys and get a "prediction" of the future.

  Aside from any faith you may have in the predictive value of
  the program, it is nicely done, and just going through the ritual
  has an odd effect; it encourages you to get all that trash out
  of your mind.  Great for brain cramps, but Falcon it ain't.
