Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Bill Nye the Science Guy: Stop the Rock! is a 1996 adventure game developed by Pacific Interactive for Windows 3.x and Macintosh computers based off of the TV show. The game casts you in the role of a new science researcher at Nye Labs, Bill Nye's fictional science complex, located somewhere in Southern California. Almost immediately upon arrival, you're thrust into saving the world from the killer asteroid Impending Dumé by solving the riddles posed by the now-sentient, human-despising AI controlling MAAX, the Meteoroid And Asteroid eXploder, so it will actually do the job it was programmed to do. Oh, and you have just five days before the asteroid hits.Aside from Bill Nye as... well, Bill Nye and Pat Cashman as Chet Brinkow, the game's scenery-chewing news anchor, the game has none of the recurring characters from the TV show, instead opting for an exclusive cast of original characters.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot: The first MAXX does upon activation is decide to test humanity's intelligence or let the world be destroyed. The Evil Laugh does its sanity no favors. | |

Bill Nye the Science Guy: Stop the Rock! (Video Game) / int_4510b368 | comment |
Ambiguous Gender: MAXX does not use pronouns for itself and has a computerized voice that could go either way. When Bill finds himself using pronouns to refer to MAXX, he ends up saying "him, or her, or it". | |

Bill Nye the Science Guy: Stop the Rock! (Video Game) / int_e6558beb | comment |
Artistic License – Space: An anti-asteroid-and-meteoroid satellite system like MAAX would do more harm than good in real life since destroying asteroids and meteoroids large enough to destroy Earth would only create even more asteroids or meteoroids to impact the Earth—albeit smaller ones. Ironically, the In-Universe demonstration video for MAAX averts this—instead of outright destroying Impending Dumé, it's deflected by the MAAX satellite system away from Earth. This is consistent with how such a system would theoretically work in real life: detonate a small chunk of a killer space object such that the resulting debris will burn up in Earth's atmosphere while the object itself is nudged sufficiently off-course so it won't impact with Earth. | |
