Chucklefish and Robust Games have today announced that the point-and-click comedy adventure Loco Motive will finally be calling at Switch station on 21st November — that's next week!

Those after some classic Lucasarts vibes, this one's for you. Loco Motive sees you board the Reuss Express, a swanky train service full of swanky customers where nothing could possibly go wrong. Except, it does! Lady Unterwald of the Wald-Bahn Rail Company has been murdered and it's up to you (a lawyer, an undercover agent and a novelist-turned-amateur-detective) to find the killer.
