Journey of a Roach

In a world devastated by nuclear war, cockroach buddies Jim and Bud set out from their bomb shelter to reach the surface. Along the way, they encounter other strange insects living among the ruins. Explore 3D environments, examine objects, collect items, and solve puzzles to move forward and help Bud. Jim’s ability to crawl along walls and ceilings changes the room’s perspective and opens new routes through each space. The adventure presents its story through comic-style scenes, picture-filled speech balloons, and character sounds rather than spoken dialogue. Its comic-book-inspired visuals and post-apocalyptic setting frame the journey as a wordless adventure.

Guide Jim, a cockroach in a nuclear-ruined world, through puzzles by crawling across floors, walls, and ceilings on the way to the surface.
