Red Comrades Save the Galaxy (Russian: Петька и Василий Иванович Спасают Галактику) is a 1998 point-and-click graphic adventure game.

Some elements of the plot are adapted from the novel Chapaev [Wikidata] by Dmitry Furmanov,[4] and borrows Russian anecdotes from the Soviet era heavily.

In 1917, a shot from the Russian Navy cruiser Aurora's main gun signals the beginning of the October Revolution of 1917, but drunken sailors miss the Tsar's Winter Palace and hit the Moon instead.

While preparing for the invasion, the aliens accidentally discover with their telescope a wooden sign with the scratched words: 'Backwoods is a Hub of the Earth' - in a remote Russian village, Backwoods.

Discussions led to the decision of making their own game in that genre, with the three main heroes of popular jokes as protagonists.

Labelled a "jewel box" release, its development model was recognized to cut production costs of all copies, increasing the total print produced.

On February 18, 2016, a remastered version compatible with newer Windows operating systems and wide-screen displays was released on Steam.

These include revocalized dialogues, more detailed backgrounds for certain locations[citation needed], and the localization of the text to English.

[8] A portrait of Vladimir Putin as the Emperor of Russia was also inserted; at the time of the game's original release, he was still the head of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB).
