Fun fact: Braid is a game about the creation of the nuclear bomb, and maybe some other things as well

Thanks I'm glad I already played it before reading this incredible spoiler

Yeah, but it's evergreen. Loads of people haven't played it or finished it, or were even born when it came out, and might be learning about it just now.

For me the gameplay was kinda meh and actually frustrating at times, but the way it tells the story was so nice and so perfectly fit the mechanics, that made it worth it. So I guess think twice about a "fun fact" with no spoiler tag that gives away something so important for enjoying the game.
