Both characters are immediately recognizable as villainous, and it should come as no surprise that Henry and Seren will ultimately come into conflict with them. His subordinate, Merkley Rivera, the Supreme Executive of Outercore Enterprises, considers himself a big shot, but other than looking good for the camera he is not particularly competent at, well, anything.
The squat and rotund cyborg CEO Wormhole is gleefully bent on controlling the Near and Far Star galaxies in an almost moustache-twirling sort of way. Maax, a mechanic extraordinaire on the lam from Near Star authorities, doesn’t trust easily but is willing to form an uneasy alliance with Henry so long as the two of them can mutually benefit from the arrangement.Īnd, of course, there are the bad guys. Bruce, a talking walrus wearing a suit, who may operate on the shady side of the law, is always looking for a way to better his situation. Some, like a grumpy ishmoby whale – a sentient bipedal whale of human proportions – and his arrogant human gamer sister are met only in passing and represent little more than puzzle opportunities, while others are more substantial. Just as diverse are the denizens of these places. From the noisy and boisterous Party Till the End of Time to a dusty, sunbaked town to a solemn, snow-shrouded graveyard, there’s certainly plenty to see here. Each of these areas contains its own array of different locations. You’ll also visit Cape Coocoo, a tailored planet built by far-reaching mega corporations New Callisto, a desert world whose air is being harvested and Pluto, now a snowy waste having long since escaped the solar system. This is just one of the fun and exciting strange new worlds and new civilizations you’ll encounter throughout the game.
His first is to the planet Axiwan, where he and his mother must deliver supplies to a race of sentient ants, whose queen communicates via a translating megaphone. Henry is oblivious to the financial situation of the family business he’s simply excited that his mom is finally letting him go along on new missions. She then settled down into the Mosse Family Supplies shipping business, but even with her son in tow, her heart’s not really in it and the company has been struggling for some time. His adoptive mother Seren was once a Far Star Explorer, going on exciting escapades of her own and charting new worlds until the passing of her father.
While its reach may exceed its grasp on occasion, there is much fun to be had in Henry’s adventure through two delightfully different galaxies.ĭiscovered as a green-haired baby orphaned in space, Henry Albert Mosse is now fifteen and eager for adventure through the Near and Far Star galaxies. Bad Goat Studios has provided exactly that with Henry Mosse and the Wormhole Conspiracy, a stylish space adventure that embraces its traditional genre heritage while providing a grand journey to exotic new places. With so many weird, wacky and wonderful takes on what constitutes an adventure game these days, it’s nice to get back to the basics of a good ol’ point-and-clicker with an emphasis on story, character, and puzzles once in a while.
