Welcome to the strangest airport you’ll ever visit, where the staff barks orders and the only lost luggage is your sanity. Yes, you heard that right! In 'An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs', dogs have taken over airport operations, and it's as absurd as it sounds. The game rolls out a carpet for the bewildered and adventurous, guiding players through a surreal journey of fetch quests, bizarre alien encounters, and grafitti from the dog and alien demographic. Buckle up; we're going intergalactic, canine-style!
In this uproarious adventure, you play as the last human left on Earth who's separated from your fiancée during an intergalactic trip. Your mission? Navigate a series of airports run by intelligent dogs, and God knows what else. The dogs, not content with just being cute, require you to undertake a series of fetch quests to progress. Forget about cash or currencies; just grab random items and bring them to various pooches like 'Bribe Dog', who apparently has a vested interest in bribery. You'll be deciphering alien signs while scouting for lost bones, too — because what’s an airport without a treasure hunt for someone's favorite chew toy? Time runs in real-time, which means there's no rushing to catch your flight — unless you enjoy the thrill of horrified canine expressions as they overreact to missed connections. Don't worry, if you miss your flight – there’s a scenic alternative route through chaos!...err, I mean via alternative airports!
Graphically, this game isn’t about dazzling visuals; it’s about stock photo dogs catapulting you into surrealism. The environments are colorful and exaggerated, akin to a fever dream you can’t wake up from. Your interactions involve quirky dog characters displayed with random stock photos and hilariously bad puns that will surely leave you chuckling or rolling your eyes. It's a delightful clash of low-res realism and high-res chaos. Think desktop wallpaper meets emotive storytelling; it’s visually absurd but effective, if not entirely something to brag about.
In summary, 'An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs' is a game like no other. It shuffles away from traditional gameplay to serve up a surreal mix of comedy, adventure, and canine overlords. While not every fetch quest lands triumphantly, and some gameplay elements veer into redundancy, the chuckles and barks echo throughout. You will leave with an appreciation for dogs that you never knew you needed, contemplating the deeper meaning of alien beings wanting your help in the wackiest of airports. Worth a play for its comedic flare, quirky mechanics, and unforgettable characters, it earns itself a solid 7 out of 10. Now, if only they'd offer complimentary snacks on these intergalactic flights!
