    OK guys, I just did the divorce part, but now I can’t find the re-marry part in the dialog tree. How do I get to that part?

    Guys?

    Guys? Guys… :'(

        Oh, yeah. Language is just fun to observe because its easy to not notice.

        I understood it to mean “the end of something”, though I guess “repeating the game” might be more concrete. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It’s poetry.

          I think you’re getting stuck on the “game over” part. This by itself does mean “the end of something” But “start over” is a separable phrasal verb that means “to begin again”. So you can say “Let’s start over” or “Let’s start the game over”.

          I always felt a little bad for ESL students who just discovered phrasal verbs because they’re basically a whole new set of often nonsensical verbs to learn.
