STRANGE ADVENTURES V1.5 PATCH

This file upgrades the FULL PC VERSION of Strange Adventures in Infinite Space to version 1.5. Note: This patch is not compatible with the demo.

How can you tell if you need the patch? Run the game and look at the top left corner of the main menu (with purple nebula background). If there's no version number, or if it's not "v1.5", you should get the patch.

Download the file below and run it. Then enter the location of your SAIS install folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\Strange Adventures In Infinite Space, which is the default) and click "Unzip". This will upgrade the game to the latest version.

STRANGE ADVENTURES IN INFINITE SPACE PC DEMO

Download the Demo Version of Strange Adventures In Infinite Space!

The demo is a considerably scaled-down version of the full game and is designed to help players become familiar with the SAIS game system.

The demo version of SAIS features:

  • 8 different ship types
  • 29 different weapons, drives, shields, gadgets and artifacts
  • 6 alien lifeforms
  • 17 different planet and star types
  • 2 unique alien races
  • The star map does not randomize for each game, instead, one fixed star map with fewer stars to explore is provided for easy, normal and hard difficulty settings.

    No exotic weapons, useable artifacts or advanced ship systems are included in this version of the game. It does, however, include the combat simulator so players can prepare for the real thing.

    Exaar's done an amazing job with this ambitious Strange Adventures in Infinite Space modification. The Urluquai Crusade offers a ton of new content and more than a few surprises. The production is very nice throughout and the idea of hanging out with the baddest of the bad guys is irresistable. Check this mod out and prepare yourself to spend a long time plumbing its depths. The starry depths where Deep Hunters lurk, that is...

    Get ready for Even Stranger Adventures in Infinite Space!Jeremy Johnson's impressive new SAIS mod, Even Stranger Adventures in Infinite Space, completely revamps the original game in awesome ways. Essentially, it's a whole new version of SAIS to play. ESAIS adds amazing new weapons, ships, items, aliens and so many changes and new things that you would think it was an official sequel or add-on. With nice art and details galore, ESAIS looks good, it's fun to explore and it plays insanely cool. Jeremy must have spent hundreds of hours on this modification but it sure paid off. ESAIS is a blast!

    The Mizendar GalaxyThe Mizendar Galaxy, by Wydraz, presents an alternate universe where you possess not a starship but an Aethership -a fanciful star galleon. You can choose from three ship variations, Hunter, Destroyer and Explorer. Each one offers different weapon and ship system configurations. They're all fun and with three weapon hard points, deadly. This mod is designed for hardcore SAIS players who prefer the hardest difficulty setting. The Mizendar Galaxy is a classy mod that you'll definitely want to have in your collection.

    You can download The Mizendar Galaxy here, here or here.

    More mods! If you're ready for a new challenge check out Megamod and Dogfight ("super-melee Megamod") by Chainmail Straightjacket Enterprises and AlStar's SAIS mod (v1.2) by Alex "AlStar" Gesing. (Visit CSE and AlStar's SAIS page for more info.)

    Mods by "Deep" Hunter Johnson

    Renegade allows you to captain either a Zorg corvette, a Garthan light carrier or an Urluquai deep hunter (instead of the standard Terran explorer). - TRE, or Target Rich Environment, beefs up the ship counts and gives you even more stuff to blow up. - Q adds a mysterious [Text deleted. That would be telling.] to the game.

    For updates and new stuff be sure to check out Hunter's SAIS page.
