Psychic powers are more believable than something ignoring the square cube law.

WHAT IS THE SHIP?
It's a multiplayer game where you and all your friends are passengers on a luxury cruise line. You are given a card with the name of one other passenger on it. You must secretly stalk and kill this player, before your own hunter (whose identity is unknown to you!) finds and kills you!

There's lots of nuances. You can't be seen doing anything bad -- even wielding a weapon -- in front of security, or you'll be arrested. But to keep people from camping in safe areas all round, they must also manage needs for things like cleanliness, food, and the bathroom, which will have them wandering into more unguarded areas. Further, every weapon gives a different amount of money if used in a kill (can be checked on a master list or just by clicking any weapons you possess), and any weapon already used drops in value to almost nothing, making any kills with it a total waste! So even just finding weapons to use will put you into dark corridors where you are liable to be killed. If you kill a non-quarry target you lose money. But if you are certain of your hunter's identity, you can kill them first, and take no penalty!

All in all it's a buggy but relatively enjoyable game. AI is laughable though, so the real fun is playing with other people.

You can try the singleplayer modes (notably HUNT and ELIMINATION) to get a feel for the game, but the AI is so awful it's hardly worth more than learning the ropes and the layout of the ships.

I remember playing this years ago.

Sleeping, minding my own business.
Suddenly "AAAH! ARRRGH! AAAAH!" I wake up to someone exiting the room holding a syringe.

All the cool kids play The Ship. Going to try to get another game going tonight.
Some of the bugs aren't consistent and make zero sense, but the noclipping one is the most harmful and also the easiest to avoid. Whenever you're interacting with something, especially a container, do not use the run key (default shift.) If you use shift at the right time you'll start noclipping.
