Comment Not yet done looking for sources, but this at least seems to constitute a reliable source that discusses the game in-depth. I, Jethrobot ^{drop me a line} (note: not a bot!) 23:08, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The above article. this French article and this Danish article about the game and its difficulty I think tips the scale in favor of keeping the article. This scholarly article also describes the notoriety of the game in the context of game design. I will add these to the article momentarily.

Keep per sources found by I Jethrobot. The PCWorld page looks quite promising actually. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 11:52, 18 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Changing my !vote as nom to Neutral, given the great work I Jethrobot has done so far with the article. I'll leave it to others' discretion whether to close this early, but leaving it open for the duration may get a couple more eyes on continuing to improve an article that has been languishing for years. --Tgeairn (talk) 19:40, 18 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
