I bought the game with 6 months access one and a half years ago. After the 6-months period was over, I still was able to replay the whole game from start to finish. And even now, after 18 months the login is still working. I can play the game just fine. That's no guarantee, but it seems the 6 months policy isn't really enforced. Probably just a safeguard in case popularity and server load takes off.

For the game itself: I can highly recommend it. You will get a decent grip of vim. However, it doesn't get into advanced topics like macros, plugins etc. It won't make you a vim wizard. But for a beginner, it's excellent.

I have been a beginner for 18 months. I played until I got the first key, drove over the first chest, and apparently have nothing to show for it. Am I missing something?
Yep - keep going right and work out how you can navigate the water obstacle. You need to meet the young lady with pink hair.
