Trover Saves the Universe

You play a chair-bound alien whose dogs have been kidnapped by Glorkon, a villain threatening the universe. You team up with Trover, a reluctant purple companion, and travel through strange worlds on a rescue mission.

The game combines platforming, light combat and puzzles. You control Trover as he moves and fights, while also directing your seated character, who can shift viewpoints and interact with the environment.

Progress through levels, collect items and unlock new abilities for Trover and your character. The adventure can be played on a screen or in VR, with its unusual two-character setup shaping how you explore and solve challenges.

Reviews often praise the game’s absurd, crude dialogue and its unusual setup of directing Trover while inhabiting a seated character. Some players also enjoy the platforming, puzzles and colorful worlds, though others find the humor repetitive, the dialogue overlong and the gameplay simple. Reactions to the comedy and controls vary.
