ABOUT THIS GAME

From the co-creator of Rick and Morty comes Trover Saves the Universe.

Your dogs have been dognapped by a beaked lunatic named Glorkon who stuffed them into his eye holes and is using their life essence to destroy the universe. You're partnered with Trover, a little purple eye-hole monster who isn’t a huge fan of working or being put in the position of having to save the universe. He’s also not that big a fan of you quite frankly, and neither am I. (Jk, you’re great)

Only you and Trover can save everything in this bizarre comedy adventure, created by Justin Roiland!

  • A comedy adventure filled with combat, platforming, puzzles, and morally questionable choices. See how the best intentions can go horribly awry.

  • You control Trover's movements, but not his mouth. He’s got a lot to say about what’s going on in the game.

  • Travel the cosmos to experience a variety of weird alien planets and bizarre characters with big personalities.

  • Upgrade Trover AND YOURSELF with new abilities to (hopefully) defeat Glorkon while evading awkward situations.

  • You'll be immersed in weirdness, no matter which display you use. Switch between TV, monitor or VR headset displays* whenever you want.

*Additional hardware required.

Also note that this is real VR - you need a whopping 25GB of drive space for this game - that's even more than Lone Echo 2 😉

Trover is as awesome as ever - with the RTX 3090 I can now play the game using SteamVR res 300% (Revive) and Ultra settings. The game never looked this beautiful before, just a few shots:

See how round Trover looks - devs used a relatively high number of polygons for the game, also note how round his eyes are

The game is literally insane - regarding the content. It's still one of the highest user-rated VR games ever made

You do have to think in this game, I refuse to get help and have been somewhat stuck in this world - but made some progress last night!
