Co-Op Multiplayer: You lose pretty fast if you don't coordinate your actions with others. Each character individually has the same amount control over the game state, and has a different special ability. Since the game information is open, the game could also be played by a single player controlling multiple characters. |

Scavenger Hunt: The parts of the flying machine are scattered randomly in the desert, and the clues to the locations of the parts are also scattered randomly. The players must first find the clues, and then retrieve the parts. |

Schrödinger's Gun |
| | Forbidden Desert (Tabletop Game) / int_76c72a08 |
comment |
Schrödinger's Gun: Until the second clue for any given part of the flying machine is revealed, the part's location is not only unknown, but also unfixed. Each turn, the storm moves tiles randomly, including both revealed clues and unrevealed clues. Only when the second clue is finally revealed is the part's location is determined. In the event it appears in the empty space representing the storm, the first tile that moves into the empty space picks up the part. |

Sliding Scale of Cooperation vs. Competition: The game is an example of "Enforced Cooperation", as there are no competitive elements and the players are required to coordinate their moves closely, especially on higher difficulties. |

Randomly Generated Levels: The tiles that form the desert are arranged randomly at the beginning of the game. Furthermore, as the storm moves around the grid of tiles, it randomly rearranges the tiles. |
