This month has seen an exciting influx of adventure games for our beloved retro computers (not that I’m complaining!). We’ve received titles like **Herra 47: Midsummer Festival** for the Commodore 64, along with the recent announcement of **Leisure Suit Larry: In the Land of the Lounge Lizards**, also heading to the C64. Now, let’s focus on the Atari ST and its newest adventure! You can now download **Galactic Panic** by Insert Studio Name for the ST! This classic point-and-click adventure pays homage to the famous Lucasarts games. Below is an animated gif along with some details sourced from the website.
Here are the details about the game. **Galactic Panic** is a quirky point-and-click adventure created in 16 colors. As a player, you are chosen for a thrilling quest across the galaxy! The inhabitants of planet Zirius 42 are in dire need of your help against a nefarious threat. The gameplay mirrors a low-budget Lucasarts style, featuring no instant death scenarios or softlocks typical of Sierra games. It supports both English and French languages, includes over 100 screens, nearly 20 original music tracks, and 26 digitized sound effects (STE or F030 required). There is only one possible ending to the game.
