Justin Roiland should make video games full time, cuz wow did I love this! I'd say the gameplay is the weakest aspect, but even then, it's not even noticeable since the game is constantly entertaining you with its whimsical, funny, and weirdly interesting dialogue.

You play as a Chailopean, a species of humanoid that lives in a chair. A big creature named Glorkon steals your dogs, and with the help of Trover, you go on a multi planet journey to kill, explore, and discover. Had a lot of fun with this; lots of moments in this game consist of you staying idle to listen to the characters hilarious, often meta, humor. Great stuff Roiland, I was especially fond of the ridiculous improv moments where you hear either Justin Roiland or someone else in the recoding booth(?) burst out laughing. This game was a blast, and even with all the power babies collected, it still felt too short. I decided to replay the game in Jopo mode for 2 reasons; 1) achievements 2) I was hoping for some special dialogue unique to the jopo reskin campaign. Sadly there wasn't.... But I still found the game fun replaying since there was a couple achievements I missed my first playthrough. After beating it twice, I checked out the dlc and to my shock, this was actually a little harder to complete. You basically just have to find rare power babies, VCR tapes, and objects related to your missions. It was kinda short, but the VCR tapes were funny, and I thought the dialogue here is some of the best, especially a certain character that doesn't wanna go to swimming lessons. I also found the red key card which was pretty funny. In all, a great dlc to a great game.

If you enjoy Rick and Morty, Solar Opposites, or Justin Roiland humor, this is a must play! One of the funniest games I've played in recent memory.
