Fire up your rockets and journey back to the golden age of adventure gaming; Elroy and the Aliens launches on April 2nd, and will be part of this month's Steam Next Fest. Travel back in time to 1993 in the live demo and meet Elroy, a passionate but chaotic rocket engineer who teams up with the daring reporter Peggie to investigate the mysterious disappearance of his father. Their search for the truth will launch them on an unforgettable intergalactic adventure spanning 60 locales to explore across two sprawling planets.

Puzzles, peculiar aliens, and ancient legends await on Elroy's path, with a tale of love, loss, and regret presented in a 90s-era cartoon style inspired by LucasArts and Sierra games. You'll meet an eclectic cast of human (and non-human) locals to befriend as Elroy and Peggie begin to unravel an ancient archaeological mystery…




In a tale with exploration, discovery, and friendship at its core, players will uncover more than what happened to Elroy's father, especially when faced with the troubled mayor's dangerous galaxy-changing plans!

If you're ready to embark on this cosmic quest, Elroy and the Aliens' demo is playable for free ahead of Steam Next Fest. A small slice of this soon-to-launch epic sci-fi adventure that has been lovingly crafted across the span of the last decade offers up a strong serving of discovery, friendship, and exploration, ready for players seeking a story-rich epic of world-saving proportions.

Elroy and the Aliens Demo Features
  • Meet protagonists Elroy and Peggie as they begin their galaxy-wide adventure
  • Encounter 5 fully voiced characters in the 30-minute Steam Next Fest demo
  • Explore a slice of the charming locale of Slope City
  • Fully voiced in English, with text translations for other languages, starting with Spanish, French, German, and Brazilian Portuguese

Elroy and the Aliens is available to wishlist on Steam now ahead of its launch on April 2nd, 2025.

Same here, they were a blast (reading from the quantum physics book to a horse to make it go to sleep in DotT anyone?). Some of them got recent remakes. But not all, obviously.
