Our take on Tales of Cosmos
The space-flight premise receives prominent attention, but the core structure remains a traditional point-and-click adventure built around exploration, conversations, items, and puzzles. The rocket expands the setting between puzzle scenes rather than replacing that slower investigation-focused format.
What is Tales of Cosmos?
Play as Perseus and Gagayev, animal astronauts stranded on the uncharted planet Chlorine Beach after encountering a space anomaly.
Build a spaceship, pilot it between planets and moons, and search the planetary system for a way forward. The game combines point-and-click interactions with space travel, letting players examine environments, meet local lifeforms, collect items, and solve puzzles whose solutions can span different worlds. Its 2D presentation uses hand-drawn environments, unusual characters, and a soundtrack focused on cosmic exploration. An integrated hint system provides assistance during difficult puzzles, while an included level editor provides modding tools.
