About the Game

The galaxy's most advanced alien species, with the ability to adapt to any situation, hostile environment. The ultimate survivors come up against their greatest challenge yet... an old man!



Our hero Terry is enjoying life in God’s own county, Yorkshire, until he makes a shocking discovery. His quaint English village has been invaded by... ALIENS. Terry, the local detective arrives at his favourite pub only to learn that some of the local people have been taken over by shape-shifting aliens. It is now up to Terry to investigate the locals and find the imposters among them. With his quick wit, skills and a bunch of sarcasm can Terry uncover the identities of all the aliens hiding among the village population before his knees give way!?​



In this point and click adventure, the only way to deduce who is impersonating the locals is by interacting with different quirky characters and questioning them. You must try your best to outsmart them by using your local knowledge against them and the best way of doing that is by completing a bunch of fun and ridiculous puzzles like the point and click games of the past!



  • Colourful and vibrant pixel art interpretation of English countryside​.
  • Interact with a variety of unusual and eccentric characters.​
  • Various challenging and peculiar puzzles to solve.​
  • Absurd British sense of humour. ​
  • A lot of tuba music
  • Mix of gameplay styles; point and click and turn based combat.
