About Astroloco: Worst Contact

Summary


In the far future, humans explore and colonise space using ridiculously deadly, moon-sized trains - 'Astro Locomotives'. They're operated by enormous, competing railroad companies and train vs. train combat is (expensively) common.

Take control of a mistreated mechanic and a swashbuckling pilot as you try to save Gilbert Station from destruction at the hands of an alien death fleet!

Features

  • Classic 1990s adventure gameplay! Inspired by genre classics such as Space Quest, Monkey Island and Day of the Tentacle.
  • Trains. In space. That's worth the entry price, right there.
  • The funniest writing in an adventure game this side of the millenium. That might be a positive or a negative, depending on how much you enjoy laughing until you dribble.
  • Two playable characters for the price of one.
  • Fully voiced! You'll also be able to turn the voice-over off, since we know some of you like to do that. Just know that every time someone ticks that particular box in the game settings, we'll kill one of our voice actors.
  • Fully soundtracked! You won't be able to turn the music off. In fact, the volume slider starts at 100% and it only goes up from there.
  • The 'unique' graphical style of subAtomic and Plan M!
  • Interesting puzzles and minigames! We know a lot of you adventure gamers out there like to actually have some challenge in your games. For everyone else, just curl up tight, hold down your Escape key, and hope it ends soon.
  • 20 in-game achievements to be unlocked, if you have nothing better to do.
  • An entirely reasonable retail price!

✦ AI summary

Astroloco is a charming point-and-click adventure praised for its witty, understated humor delivered through excellent voice acting and clever writing that avoids being obnoxious. Players appreciate the well-designed puzzles, pleasant absurdist story, and endearing campy sci-fi setting, though the main complaint is that it's quite short and leaves players wanting more content from the creator.

Recommended Mar 1, 2023
There's quite a few ways to do the best humour. Astroloco knows that understated, straight face comedy definitely belongs among them. Pleasant absurdity of the story and situations, void of shoving obnoxious hilarity down your throat, is refreshingly yummy treat here. It's accomplished not only by talented writing, but also by surprisingly good voice-acting, perfectly congenial in aforementioned pregnant dryness.

A pretty short, extremely easy, and quite amusing point & click adventure game. Pick this one up for the campy sci-fi story and not for complex puzzles.

The game is well-written and actually fun, and the puzzle design is good. The shout-outs are endearing as well. I can live with the MS-Paint graphics, especially given the charm of the pixel art. My only gripe is that there is not more content / more games from the same creator.

Absolutely love this hidden gem. It's well made, fully voice acted, and has great Monty Python style humor.

One of the funniest adventure games that I have played in my entire life. Too bad is too short, but worth playing nevertheless.
