We are re-imagining Loco Motive as a full release for Nintendo Switch & PC! 

Wishlist Loco Motive on Steam

Loco Motive: Game Jam Edition was a 2-week ‘proof-of-concept’ created as part of AdvXJam 2020, and launched right here on itch.io!

Mr. Arthur Ackerman finds himself in the personal employ of Lady Unterwald, an eccentric heiress of the Wald-Bahn rail company.

On the verge of a landmark speech, you've been summoned to make a last minute amendment to her Will - aboard her flagship luxury train, The Reuss Express.

Little does Arthur know, he's about to become embroiled in a murder, a mystery and worst of all... an adventure!

(Psst, guess what! Since AdvXJam 2020 we founded our own studio and are now full-time indie devs! Thank you for playing this version of the game ❤️

With the support of our publisher, Chucklefish, we’re now reimagining Loco Motive from a 2 week proof-of-concept into a full game! We think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how much is changing - check out our plans and follow along with the game’s development right here.)

"A lot of indie adventure games try to replicate the distinctive feel of classic LucasArts point-and-clickers, but Loco Motive [Game Jam] doesn't just pull this off; it absolutely nails it.."

- PC Gamer

"The level of polish in Loco Motive [Game Jam] is incredible – with fantastic pixel art animation, intuitive puzzles, a great sense of humor and well written dialogue..It feels a lot like someone’s unearthed a long lost Lucasarts classic.. Highly recommended."

- Alpha Beta Gamer
