The adventures of Dodger through space and time continue! Previously a dish washer (person, not a machine!) onboard Space Station Penrose, Dodger must travel the space-time continuum and inter-dimensional highways to save the universe from the Tgorodians, a bunch of time-travelling thugs in search of the fabled Garden World!

Tachyon Dreams II: The Bloated Can of Space Root Beer is the exciting second chapter in a series of short sci-fi comedic text-parser adventure games with EGA graphics that will look and feel very much like the mid/late 80's adventure games by Sierra. Think early Space Quest games. Think AGI. 

Average first playthrough length: 30 minutes. 

How to play: use the arrow keys to move, ESC for options. Type your commands then, press enter for the magic to happen!

This makes me want to go back in time to the late 80s & play more text parser games. :)

I loved the descriptions in this one.  The story is definitely getting more mysterious.  I like how nonchalant Dodger is about everything happening. True to character, I suppose.

Thanks, glad you liked it! And yeah, he's a bit of a happy-go-lucky type of dude haha.

It was fun! I thought Dodger would be time travelling again, but I enjoyed it nevertheless, things are a little bit mysterious and unsettling in this chapter. The story gets interesting, I don't know if Dodger should trust Tenas. I'll be waiting for chapter three. 

Thank you for this games!

Thanks, glad to hear! He sort of does, going through the portal, but I suppose it could have been made clearer.
