Grelox: Colony 7

Game cover: Grelox: Colony 7

Description

After shutting down the underground bases on the planet Aeon of the crime boss Lady Mandrill, famed troubleshooter Grelox tracks her down to Colony 7.

Grelox: Colony 7 is the fourth game set in the Grelox universe and a direct sequel to the third game, Grelox. Unlike the previous platform and shooting games, this is described as a digital comic, which is designed more like a graphical text adventure. However, rather than typing a verb-noun command into a text parser, you are presented with a HUD which shows the available actions for that screen and you just press the corresponding letter key. The keys are N (North), S (south), E (east), W (West), L (Look), I (Item) and T (Talk). Actions will be greyed out if unavailable for that location.

The gameplay involves you travelling around the map and conversing with the characters in each location. They all require you do them a fetch them items in exchange for information that will lead you to Lady Mandrill. The dialogue style is comedic and mildly adult in places.
