Description
The story was excellent. The file downloaded here have a hints folder with a star map that helped me out a ton. Also I believe the files for the human and the red probe ships were modified. The human ship has unlimited energy and can fly so fast it will kill itself by flying faster then the missiles it fires(hint shoot sideways if moving.) The red probes attacks seem to be disabled completely. I didn′t realize this until halfway through the game which helped out a lot when getting the hang of the game. can′t wait to play a second time with the original ship setting(the files are found in the "original" folder).
Best adventure game in computer history... period

To PIXELACHER. Bye or get Win 7 or Win XP. And game itself, that IS a very good game and I not say more of that. "I have Win XP."
This is a great game, UrQuan wars is a rewrite and much better interface along with the great music. It′s also free! Now were just waiting on sword of the samurai to be allowed to be downloaded again, hint hint!
God Bless all!
This is one of the greatest games ever made. You′ll lose yourself for hours in it, promise. Fun story, quirky characters (
Easily one of the best games all time, and yes, you can look up Ur Quan Masters and get a download there
Absolutely LOVED this game, and I have no idea why. It has NOTHING I look for in a good game except the story, but I just could not get enough of it. Played through dozens of times and enjoyed every minute of it.
Best to use DOSBox in order to run this game if you don′t have an older PC (IBM PS/2 Model 80)
Look up "Ur Quan Masters", it′s an opensource free remake of the game, that works on modern machines.
How do I get it to work? I have windows 8 but it doesn′t run. HALP ME!
This was and still is one of my favorite games. Beats most modern games quite easily in terms of game play and story.
