It's a game, one of the new gameplays allowed by blockchain, not really a scheme or a financial pattern.
Also, even if there are opportunities to take "now", new game scenes come every year. And some are in development.
Both situations make me inclined to tell you not to feel bad if you feel you have missed the earlier times: EXODE always comes up better!
As it's a game so I think you need to see if the game part suits ou.
Feel free to try out the free demo at https://exode.io, it's a very old build but it received the upgraded tutorial in it! The demo will share some of the immersive experience.
It will make you feel, hopefully, some of what EXODE is about!
And don't feel bad if your ship is blown up - it happened to many among us. The unique experience is what EXODE is about.
Note: I am biased!
As I am EXODE developer.
