This cosmic adventure is now available on Steam.Check out the trailer here.Check out the official website here.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.
