Plot

Mechanics
In Next Stop Nowhere we observe the action from different perspectives. The player's task is to travel through the locations, talk to the characters and solve puzzles. In conversations we often make decisions that shape both the continuation of the story and the hero's relationship with the individual characters.
From time to time we also sit at the helm of a spaceship - our task is then to travel through space and avoid obstacles (e.g. asteroids).
Game modes
In Next Stop Nowhere we can only play alone. The core of the game is a feature campaign.
Technical aspects
Next Stop Nowhere has quite a nice, three-dimensional graphic design. The graphic design are quite simple, but is characterized by an interesting artistic style and expressive colors.
