Story of the Game

An Unexpected Trip to Space

The adventure begins when Putt-Putt and his excited dog, Pep, visit a fireworks factory. Suddenly, something goes wrong! A big accident happens, and Putt-Putt and Pep are launched into outer space. They fly far away from Earth.

Landing on the Moon

Putt-Putt and Pep land safely on the Moon. But now they have a new problem: how do they get back home? The Moon is a big, quiet place. Luckily, they meet a friendly Moon Buggy Rover who helps them.

Finding a Way Home

To return to Earth, Putt-Putt needs to find special rocket parts. He also needs glowing moon crystals. These crystals are like money on the Moon. Putt-Putt uses them to buy the parts he needs for his rocket. Your job is to help Putt-Putt find everything and fly back home!

How to Play

Exploring and Solving Puzzles

Putt-Putt Goes to the Moon is a point-and-click adventure game. This means you use your mouse to click on objects and places on the screen. You can explore different areas, talk to characters, and pick up items.

Putt-Putt's Special Tools

Putt-Putt has some helpful tools that you can use during the game. These tools are similar to the ones in the first Putt-Putt game.

  • Glove Box Inventory: This is like Putt-Putt's backpack. When you find an item you need, it goes into his glove box. You can then use these items to solve puzzles.
  • Car Horn: Putt-Putt's horn can be used to get attention or interact with certain things in the game.
  • Radio: The radio might help Putt-Putt communicate or get clues.
  • Accelerator: This helps Putt-Putt move faster or get to new areas.

By using these tools and exploring, you'll help Putt-Putt and Pep complete their mission and return to Earth!
