home planet of Xenon, Roger has a run in with

sequels) and space. Traveling to the bleak
future of Space Quest XII, Roger will enlist
the help of the Latex babes of Chronos, as

of rebel fighters from the future whose only
goal is to save Roger's hide. As usual it's up
Roger to save the future of Xenon, not to
mention the entire Space Quest series.

are translating the game into the SCI
