This odd little interactive morsel isn't really an adventure, platformer, a racing game or an action game; it's a surreal mish-mash of all of these as well as a few genres that haven't even been named yet.
In concept, the game's as fresh as a 5 am donut and when things go right, it really soars. Unfortunately, due to unclear objectives, clunky controls and numerous bugs, it more often crashes and burns.
Cargo! starts with a female mechanic named Flawkes and a pirate captain called Borkin making a cargo delivery in a poofy, multi-colored dirigible. As they pass over their island destination, they're unexpectedly shot down and marooned and thirty seconds in, it's obvious Cargo! is unlike any game you've ever played. You play as Flawkes and when you regain consciousness, you're surrounded by an army of tiny, bald, naked men.
