Summary
Journey of a Roach is developed by the Swiss team of Koboldgames in co-operation with Daedalic Entertainment. Players will visit a sarcastic, post-apocalyptic world where Roach Jim and his sidekick Bud are out and about to find their way from a deserted vault to the Earth's surface. Players must steer them through classic point & click adventure game puzzles. Certain challenges can be overcome by using the roach's natural abilities. Being roaches, Jim and Bud have the ability to crawl up walls and on ceilings, as well as on items.
Critic Reviews19
Too many basic lessons on how to treat players go unlearnt. Even over its short duration, initially colourful scenarios become sadly static and tired. Journey of a Roach has some promising ideas, but unfortunately struggles to demonstrate them at their best.

A fresh look at the genre that also doesn’t lose sight of the key basics that make a great adventure game.

Journey of a Roach has a couple of fresh ideas in its sleeve, but the visuals are too amateurish, and the puzzles are dull.
