About

Universe for Sale is a sci-fi adventure that blends point-and-click exploration with visual novel storytelling. Set in a floating market on Jupiter's clouds, you navigate the strange lives of three central figures: a woman creating universes to sell, a bone-carved cultist chasing transcendence, and a silent figure overseeing it all. Choices shape dialogue and relationships as you piece together their tangled pasts through environmental clues and branching conversations. The pace is slow, the tone surreal, and the puzzles minimal but atmospheric. What lingers is the game’s oddball charm and the way it threads themes of loneliness and identity into its cosmic setting. The cast’s contrasting perspectives, especially the vendor’s quiet desperation versus the cultist’s hollow zeal, create a narrative that’s equal parts quirky and melancholic. While it won’t challenge your problem-solving skills, the brisk runtime (about four hours) and hand-drawn art make it a memorable detour for fans of dialogue-driven tales. Community reviews note its divisive style but praise its bold, if uneven, ambition.
