"Trover Saves the Universe" is a comedic action-adventure platformer developed by Squanch Games, co-founded by Justin Roiland, one of the creators of "Rick and Morty." In this colorful, surreal universe, players take on the role of Trover, a small creature who must embark on a quest to rescue his entire home planet from an evil entity known as Glorkon. Glorkon has abducted Trover's puppies, each of which holds immense power, and it’s up to Trover, along with the player, to stop him and restore balance to the universe.
The game blends a mix of exploration, puzzle-solving, and combat, all wrapped in a bizarre, humorous narrative filled with quirky characters and absurd situations. Players control Trover from a third-person perspective and utilize his unique abilities to navigate through different worlds, solve puzzles, and defeat enemies using a variety of skills and mechanics. The game also features elements of comedy typical of Roiland's work, including unexpected dialogue, surreal scenarios, and a tongue-in-cheek take on video game tropes. With its vibrant art style and engaging gameplay, "Trover Saves the Universe" provides a distinctive experience that appeals to fans of both platformers and humorous storytelling.
