Trivia related to the hyperbolic geometry - There was a game released recently that have a world set in hyperbolic space. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1256230/Hyperbolica/

If someone wants to 'grasp' what hyperbolic space is about, this game is one of the fun and inspiring ways to do that.

Another hyperbolic geometry game and previous discussion here [1]. The different areas in the game help with a grasp of different interesting properties of the non-euclidean geometry.

That reminds me of a similar game, Miegakure. Not hyperbolic but 4D. It looks sooo cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yW--eQaA2I
