'''''Cargo! The Quest For Gravity''''' is a PC game taking place in a colorful, low-gravity world where lots of important Earth landmarks have floated off into the stratosphere. The only way to get them back is to imbue them with Fun, a resource harvested from cute little creatures called the Buddies. As trainee mechanic Flawkes, the player must build increasingly complex vehicles to take the Buddies for rides in order to get Fun with which to keep things like Big Ben, the Statue of Liberty, and the Large Hadron Collider from floating off into space.
 
Oh, and it's made by Ice-Pick Lodge, a developer known ([[Cult Classic|by the few people who have heard of them]]) for incredibly bleak and serious games like ''[[Pathologic]]'' and ''[[The Void (video game)|The Void]]''. ... Huh.

* [[Adam and Eve Plot]]: Realizing that he and Flawkes are the last humans on Earth, the Captain asks Flawkes if she'd like to start a family {{spoiler|... of Buddies. So that's a subversion}}.
* [[After the End]]
* [[AIA.I. Is a Crapshoot]]: A trio (or trinity, perhaps?) of robots have declared themselves gods and have taken it upon themselves to punish humanity by flooding the world and screwing with gravity.
* [[CosyCozy Catastrophe]]: For a post-apocalyptic world, it's certainly bright and cheerful, and no one seems especially bothered by it.
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: The robotic devil that seems to operate independently of the Demiurges is rather creepy, but is genuinely trying to help Flawkes through his advice.
* [[Gainax Ending]]: Sure, the whole game is weird, but it's a silly kind of weird. The ending is just... ''confusing''.
