Overview
Description

One minute you're munching nacho popcorn, the next you're pulled into a bizarre alien universe where acid pools, floating wraiths and strange creatures await. Follow P.J. Barrett as he unravels a deep mystery that only you can solve. Designed by Michael Berlyn, the game blends classic point‑and‑click puzzles with a quirky science‑fiction narrative, delivering a nostalgic yet fresh adventure for fans of retro titles.

Set after Borderlands 2, this five‑part series follows a Hyperion suit with Jack‑like ambitions and a Pandoran con artist as they chase a massive cash haul. The game blends Telltale’s signature choice‑driven storytelling with the humor and chaos of the Borderlands universe. Players navigate point‑and‑click puzzles, make decisions that shape the narrative, and encounter familiar vault hunters, gangsters, and bandit lords across a colorful, sci‑fi world.
