Is it still worth playing?
Dynamix and Sierra On-Line's 1993 graphic adventure for MS-DOS, the fifth Space Quest and the first designed by Mark Crowe alone, a spoof of Star Trek. Roger Wilco, a former janitor who graduates from StarCon Academy after a grading glitch, becomes captain of a garbage scow and intercepts a distress call from a ship under attack. It keeps the point and click icons but drops smell and taste, and adds an Order icon, used from the captain's chair to give commands to the crew and the teleporter. Parody targets include The Next Generation, Star Wars, Alien and The Terminator. The academy final exam is a set of multiple choice questions, and an optional Battleship minigame is played against Captain Quirk. A starship captain who gives orders instead of just walking around still gives the point and click a new role.
