Maribor, Slovenia, April 2nd, 2025 - Prepare to embark on a nostalgic journey through space and time in Elroy and the Aliens, a hand-drawn point-and-click adventure that makes its final landing on Steam today! Inspired by classic LucasArts titles and sanguine storytelling from the 90s in adventures like Indiana Jones, Stargate and The Goonies, as well as sci-fi book classics by Peter F. Hamilton, Dan Simmons, Frank Herbert, and Terry Pratchett, Elroy and the Aliens offers a nostalgic trip back to the heyday of adventure games.

Set against the backdrop of the charming Slope City in 1993, players step into the shoes of Elroy, a young, rocket-obsessed engineer haunted by the disappearance of his archaeologist father. Joined by Peggie, a sharp-witted investigative journalist with a particular knack for languages, Elroy will embark on a galaxy-wide odyssey across two richly detailed planets, featuring over 60 meticulously crafted locations and fully-voiced characters, some of which will talk in a mysterious alien tongue designed specifically for the game.

Decipher ancient legends, befriend (or outwit) a quirky cast of humans and aliens, and solve intricate puzzles to unravel the truth behind Elroy’s father’s disappearance. Watch out though; a conspiracy spearheaded by Slope City’s troublesome mayor could derail their investigation! Will Elroy and Peggie succeed, or will their quest take them down an unexpected path? The story features moral dilemmas that each player might experience differently, culminating in a final choice that leads to several distinct endings.

More than just a nostalgic throwback, Elroy and the Aliens tells a poignant tale of a son’s search for his lost father, seamlessly blending heartfelt emotion with witty dialogue. Featuring an original score that perfectly captures the era, look forward to a cosmic quest like no other when it launches on Steam today.


Key features:

Nostalgic point-and-click adventure with a modern twist - Experience a true-to-form adventure game with a captivating blend of ‘90s nostalgia and unique sci-fi narrative.

Rich narrative and engaging puzzles - Uncover a deep mystery filled with humour, ancient legends, and alien languages. Solve challenging puzzles across two planets and over 60 bespoke locations, brought to life by 60 fully voiced characters.

Duel protagonists: Play as Elroy and Peggie, experiencing the story from multiple perspectives.

Stunning visuals and sound: Immerse yourself in a world of high-resolution, hand-drawn 2D art, fluid animations, and an evocative original soundtrack.

Fully localised experience: Dive into the adventure with full English voice acting and text translations in Spanish, French, German, and Brazilian Portuguese, with more languages planned.

Accessible Gameplay: Experience a seamless adventure with thoughtful accessibility features, including helpful captions for colour-based puzzles, comprehensive subtitles, and additional input options.

Elroy and the Aliens is available to download on Steam from April 2nd for $17.99/£15.99. Visit the official website and follow the team on Reddit, Facebook, Bluesky, YouTube, X, and Discord to stay updated with the latest news.
