About Captain Disaster in: The Dark Side of the Moon
✦ AI summary
Captain Disaster wakes up stranded on a distant moon through a StarGate and must uncover the mysterious purpose behind his predicament in this fully-voiced point-and-click adventure. Packed with witty writing, sci-fi and classic adventure game references, and a heavy dose of Pink Floyd humor, it's a cleverly crafted puzzle game that'll tickle both your brain and your funny bone.
Sleep walking through an open StarGate isn't the best of ways to end up on a distant moon, especially when the StarGate closes behind you before you wake up. This is the position that the intrepid Captain Disaster finds himself in - not all, however, is as it seems; there is a greater purpose at work here.
With innumerable references to classic adventure games, science fiction and of course Pink Floyd, Captain Disaster in "The Dark Side of the Moon" is a freeware, fully-voiced, light-hearted point and click adventure game which will exercise both your grey matter and funny bone. It's the first full adventure game to feature the Captain Disaster character, who also stars in Captain Disaster in: Death Has A Million Stomping Boots - and hopefully many more games to come!
Should run okay on any modern (and even most ancient!) Windows PC. Should run on Linux/Max under WINE emulation but I can't make any promises.
I also accept no responsibility for any mental conditions you may pick up as a direct or indirect result of playing this game.

Игра "Captain Disaster in: The Dark Side of the Moon" – это забавная, хотя и короткая, point-and-click адвенчура, вдохновленная классикой жанра. В роли незадачливого капитана, вы попадете в нелепую ситуацию на Луне и столкнетесь с уймой абсурдных головоломок и эксцентричных персонажей. Графика простенькая, но очаровательная, в стиле мультяшного пиксель-арта. Юмор игры – ее сильная сторона. Диалоги остроумные и полны сарказма, а сюжет, хоть и незамысловатый, радует своей абсурдностью. Головоломки, в основном, логичны, но иногда требуют применения "логики путешественника во времени", что добавляет игре шарма. Несмотря на свою короткую продолжительность (проходится буквально за пару часов), игра оставляет приятное впечатление. Она идеально подходит для тех, кто хочет расслабиться и посмеяться над незадачливым героем в глупой ситуации. Если вы любите классические адвенчуры и не боитесь глупого юмора, то "Captain Disaster" – неплохой выбор, особенно учитывая ее низкую цену. Единственный минус – быстро заканчивается. Хочется больше подобных приключений!
I played this Captain Disaster game after the Stomping Boots one, but I think this one might have come out first. It's alright. The puzzles aren't as well-hinted as they are in Stomping Boots, and it suffers from the same pixel-hunting problem, so you may well have to consult a walkthrough in some parts (I did). But it's not incredibly frustrating, and the dialog is mildly amusing. So, okay, it's not as well-put-together as Stomping Boots, it's not as funny as Stomping Boots, but it's free. It's free and it's fine. Do you like comedy space adventure games? Well, you will like this. Looking forward to more Captain Disaster in the future.

[h1]Before I played Captain Disaster in: The Dark Side of the Moon, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]
