Show-Inspired Vulgar Video Games

Trover Saves the Universe is an Immersive Rick and Morty Game

— March 29, 2019 — Pop Culture
This Rick and Morty game is conceived by Justin Roiland — the co-creator of the cult-favorite adult cartoon. Dubbed 'Trover Saves the Universe,' the entertaining action-adventure release adopts "the obscene and vulgar ethos of [the] hit show," transforming it into an immersive virtual reality experience.

Players take on the character of Trover who has to save the universe — a task that becomes quite apparent once the title of Roiland's product is made known.

One of the most alluring aspects of this Rick and Morty game is the fact that it features "over 20 hours of dialogue from Roiland." Not only does 'Trover Saves the Universe' recall visual cues that tie it to the cult-favorite series, but the voices are also inspired by the adult cartoon — Trover, for example, sounds like Morty.
