Glitchy, but heartfelt
Next Stop Nowhere is a short and sweet space roaming romp. Not filled with much gameplay. A few space lights of dodging debris as to not destroy your ship and some simple puzzles to get through.

Next Stop Nowhere is a short and sweet space roaming romp. Not filled with much gameplay. A few space lights of dodging debris as to not destroy your ship and some simple puzzles to get through. Story takes center stage. And while it isn’t some mind blowing story it’s fun to go through. The stellar voice acting and the fun characters make this worth the 3 hour trip it takes to get through the game. You get to make choices, as with most of these types of games and the lighthearted tone of the game made some of the choices even more fun to do.
The glitches were a bit frustrating though as I went through the story. Multiple times I had to exit to the main menu to then go through some story beats again to get my ship to accept my input. And there is some pop in and out and other graphical hiccups that were minor annoyances. The restarting thing was pretty dumb though. Not a fan.
Overall a decent experience. If you need a short gap game you could certainly do worse.
