Released in 2005, "Adventures in the Galaxy of Fantabulous Wonderment" features cynical science fiction humour similar to Sierra On-Line's "Space Quest", but mixes adventure elements with turn-based space combat, resource trading and space exploration gameplay mechanisms reminiscent of space simulator titles like "Star Control" and "". The game is both a parody of and a tribute to science fiction games and films. For instance, a major plot point is the deployment of Redshirts (an obvious homage to 's disposable red-shirted crew members), who are used as cannon fodder when the situation planet-side is deemed too dangerous for the ship's crew. The easily replaceable Redshirts invariably die, often in gruesome and darkly comic ways. Although not a part of the series proper, the game is set in the "Rob Blanc" science fiction universe, after the disappearance of the "Defender of the Universe" and the chaos that followed. The game was to be continued in a sequel, "Escape from the Dimension of Insidulous Cruellitude"; however, Croshaw lost interest, and the game remains uncompleted.
