Milkmaid of the Milky Way is a 2017 pixel graphic point and click game. I'd never heard of it until a friend recommended it to me. If you've never played it, I highly recommend it. It's on sale at Steam right now (or was a couple of days ago) for a whopping $2.49 US. It starts off kind of slow but stick with it...it twists and turns and will give you around four hours of bittersweet amusement. It's available for both Windows and Mac, as well as other devices.

I have wondered about this game so thanks for mentioning this, KatieB. GOG also has this game and I have seen at times really good sales for it there as well.

The game has several rather poignant moments, plus it's a very creative storyline!

Thanks for the recommendation, KatieB! I do already have the game.

I remember it was all done in rhymes which was a neat touch.
