Point-and-click space adventure

Stowaway is a free-to-play adventure game that is short but promises extreme fun. Developed by an indie developer named George Broussard, you will assume the role of pilot Travis Walker—the only remaining crew member of the Star log 617.7 of the USS Starcross ship. 

The game will quickly last granting about 15 to 30 minutes of gameplay only. Nonetheless, it is a refreshing space experience that presents an impressive combination of eerie music and sprite game graphics. For more space games like Stowaway, try Space Invaders or Angry Bird Space.

Atmospheric lo-fi space exploration 

Stowaway’s gameplay will start with an engaging story narration that is earnestly narrated by Travis Baldree, a well-known voice actor. Greatly aiding also in setting the creepy atmospheric vibe in the game is its eargasm background music. As stated, you will play as the lone crew member survivor after your colleagues Chief Engineer June Harley and Captain Ben Thomas died on your last salvage run. 

By pointing and clicking on various items or environments, you’ll explore the ship as well as the space, searching for different ways out. Overall, there are three vital spaceship sections that you can dig into. Upon the investigation, you can stumble upon a wide range of objects that you can utilize to perform a specific task or even fix the error in the ship caused by an unknown creature. 

Once you’re done repairing the ship, you’re now ready to face the vile monster. Before that you must find the right weapon to defeat the evil that’s hidden somewhere. Don’t worry as this story-rich play provides no brain teaser puzzles so you can finish it easily. The only drawback though is that it doesn’t allow you to go out again to get the heavy shielding after the engineering deck.

Fun space venture that lasts quickly

Stowaway is a mysterious space escapade that charms you with excellent gameplay, pleasant lo-fi music, as well as game graphics. It is a game that you can play anytime you are free during a short break or so. You will be able to solve and complete all the survival missions in no time, which actually can be a disadvantage also specifically for those who are truly enjoying the game.
