MILKMAID OF THE MILKYWAY

The beginnings of a point-and-click adventure The Milkmaids of the Milky Way are so calm that the game is on the verge of collapsing. No wonder ijt is known as an Award-winning classic!

Ruth is a young lady living on an isolated farm in a Norwegian fjord in the 1920s. She produces dairy goods that she sells to a town a few hours away. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, a giant gold spacecraft appears and steals her cows.

Fortunately, Ruth has had enough of it and jumps on board the starship, where she becomes entangled in a cosmic battle. We can’t say much more since it would give too much away, but we can say that this old-school adventure is a great way to spend a few hours.

The puzzles are rational yet fulfilling; the graphics are stunning; and the game amusingly tells the entire storey in rhyme, which is both charming and unique. Milkmaid of the Milky Way is a narrative about breaking away from the past, about ageing, life, death, and time – but most of all, it’s about finding your own place in the cosmos.
