"CAN YOU MAKE THE PENIS BECOME THE BIG PENIS?"
Noctropolis, the cult-classic FMV point-and-click adventure from 1994, offers a wild ride through campy, gothic storytelling, and Rick, Flux, and Pickles are here to laugh, cry, and probably scream a little as they tackle its bizarre twists and turns. Step into the shoes of Peter Grey, a washed-up bookstore owner who gets sucked into the comic book world of Noctropolis—a dark, dystopian city plagued by over-the-top villains and questionable acting.
From the awkward dialogue to the hilariously absurd puzzles, the gang dives headfirst into the neon-lit chaos, constantly asking, "What were they thinking?" Can Peter and his reluctant companion, Stiletto, stop the forces of evil, or will they be lost in this 90s fever dream of hammy performances and clunky mechanics?
Expect plenty of sarcastic commentary, FMV roasting, and maybe even a few jokes about Peter Grey being the most unintentionally relatable sad sack protagonist. It's retro gaming at its most wonderfully ridiculous!
