I've always been something of a coward myself. I remember playing Minecraft in survival mode back when I was 14 yrs old and at the brisk sunset I would hide my neck under the dirt to avoid dealing with the mobs. I hadn't relived that feeling until I started playing Dredge, with its initially unforgiving and strict day/night cycle that promises to soften as you upgrade you vessel to chart new courses towards unknown waters, always driven by an ever-present sence of exploration.
