''An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs'' (AKA "Dog Airport Game") is a first-person comedy adventure game by Strange Scaffold, the developers behind ''Cellular Harvest'' and "Mr. Bucket Told Me To" from the original ''VideoGame/DreadXCollection''.
You and your fiancée are the last two human beings left in the universe. Dogs run airports, along with the rest of society. Deal with alien logic, travel issues, and strange stock photo dogs as you attempt to stay in touch with the person you love, when you both live your lives on the go!

!!Tropes:
* AchievementsInIgnorance: Thanks to a single Dog Engineer at Phobos Terminal, all trams across the world speed up your movement in ''all'' directions.
* AfterTheEnd: The protagonist and their girlfriend, Krista, were knocked into cryostasis and woke up to find a world run by intelligent dogs, with themselves as the last two humans left alive. There was an alien invasion responsible for this upheaval, but even ''the aliens'' were long gone before they awoke.
* CollectionSidequest: The game has a built-in "Pupperdex" to keep track of every single unique dog that you've encountered.
* {{Conlang}}: With the exception of the front of some vending machines, all of the in-game writing is in an alien language, which is actually an English cypher that can be translated.
* FetchQuest: Pun probably not intended, but most of the adventure is finding the right terminals and presenting a boarding pass plus one other item (such as a passport, or a dog bone bribe) to get from airport to airport.
* LongDistanceRelationship: Due to Krista being dedicated to her job at "R&Dog", and the protagonist's unrestrained lifestyle, the only time they spend together are at airport terminals.

* NoodleIncident: The game begins on the protagonist and Krista's anniversary, where they find themselves in a(n easily-escaped) cage. Apparently, the protagonist had hired "Cage Dog, The Dog That Loves Cages" as the caterer.
* OfficiallyShortenedTitle: To quote its description on [[https://store.steampowered.com/app/1246250/An_Airport_for_Aliens_Currently_Run_by_Dogs/ Steam]], "And call it Dog Airport Game when you get tired of saying the full title, like I did three months ago."
