There is a person in That's Not My Neighbor who asks difficult questions. One of them is “In what year was the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything published?” Wondering how to answer this? We know!

Fans of Papers, Please should check out That's not my Neighbor. Both games are based on the same premise – you check people (or other entities) who want to enter a protected area. In the case of the latter title, it is an apartment complex, and you have to catch doppelgangers. Among interesting characters you meet, there is Chester. This man is very curious and asks you various difficult question. We have written about one already (the most difficult in my opinion), now let’s look at “In what year was the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything published?”.
In what year was the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything published?
At the first glance this question may seem ridiculous… but it isn’t if you have read one book – The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. It is a humorous sci-fi story about adventures of Arthur Dent, a human who was saved at the last moment before the annihilation of the Earth. However, this is only the beginning of his story.

The question asked in That's Not My Neighbor is a direct reference to the question asked in the book about ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything. According to a supercomputer from the novel, the answer is 42 (but I digress). So, Chester wants you to give a publication date of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy:
- 1979
If you will answer all Chester’s questions correctly, you will get an achievement - The best in the class. Good luck.
