Intergalactic Call Center by Troy
The Intergalactic Call Center has been connecting calls, transferring customers and giving useful information about our galaxy since 2078 and now you're employed! But working here can be difficult as the whole galaxy doesn't speak the same language!
This game is played completely with the mouse.

(At the last minute I removed Yautja language as it was near impossible to see.)

I wish that the phrase book was on the screen the whole time and didn't require me to click the button each time; and it would be awesome if there was some alien speaking/jibberish audio to go along with the alien words.
@deathray Thanks a lot, your feedback is much appreciated and as you were typing that I've updated the game so you can see the message while in the phrase book! And congrats on the highest score so far! (:
Fun game, but I don't miss working at a call center in real life. It'd be really cool to see this fleshed out more - dialogue trees instead of just a single queston/answer for each character, and audio to go along with the speech, would be great places to start.
Seriously, this is a perfect use of the theme. Nice job. I also used calls to make a game for this theme, but I did something from the past, an old switchboard. Your's is very cool!
Good game, nice application of theme
Really fun!
It was also nice to see that there are quite a few responses for every call, so it's never in the player's best interest to guess an answer. It's also great that the four direct responses change per call, so the experience remains fresh for the whole game. Well done! (And yes, it was a good CALL (hahaha) to make the change to show the last message on the Phrase Book screen, just for convenience.)
