Note: There is no clear way to finish this game, but this is the most logical
order we can think of, so boot up and listen close!
Table of Contents
I. Starting Off in the Solar System
Ok, you appear at the edge of the solar system and now you start your
adventure. Here you go:
A. Steer your ship towards earth (the third planet) and enter it. Now
listen to the probe's stuff.Go to the starbase and listen to the
Commander tell you of their problems. As he says, you gotta get
radioactives.
B. Leave Earth and fly to Mercury (the innermost planet) and enter
orbit, scan, and land to pick up everything on there, now, go back
to Earth, enter the Starbase.
C. Now you have to go out and most likely fight the Ilwrath ship (use
the Earthling ship) then proceed to the moon, land and touch the base on
there, and kill off the probes if you wish.
D. Next Proceed to Pluto (the outermost planet) and enter orbit,
scan for energy, land, touch the Spathi, SYMPATHIZE with him. Once
he is on your side, you are ready for the next step. Write down the
co-ordinates Fwiffo gives you of his homeworld.
II. Dealing with the Spathi
Now, you have to get the Spathi as a people to join your cause, heres how:
A. Once you go to Spathiwa, and talk the ships out of attacking you,
go to their homeworld and talk to the High Council, ask them everything
you can, the last thing being to join you. By the way, the Spathi live
on the moon of their homeworld.
B. As the council instructed, go to the planet and rid it of all bio
life forms. Mine it if you wish, then go back to the moon, tell them
you did what they wanted. Then tell them to join you. They will say
come back later (GO back immediately), convince them to join, be
aggressive. (say you still got the "Evil Ones" in suspended animation).
C. After completing several other steps, the starport commander will
will say communication was lost with the Spathi, proceed to their
homeworld's moon, here you will get the Umgah Caster, you will need it
later, plus you can call the Melnorme trader from anywhere in
Hyperspace with this.
III. Encounter the Zoq-Fot-Pik at Rigel
Here you gotta meet the Zoq-Fot-Pik and make them your allies.
A. Proceed to the Star System RIGEL (approximately 210.0 x 210.0).
B. You will see their ship flying around, if not, go to each planet,
and they are most likely in orbit. Talk to them, be freindly. They'll
tell you to go to ALPHA TUCANAE (400.0 x 543.7), their home star system.
C. Once you are at Alpha Tucanae, enter planet one, yer there! Now
talk them through, see what they say, be careful though, Ur-Quan's
hang around in this area. Get them to join you, and to give you their
ship designs. Then it is safe to go back again, in fact anyone you
talk to, go back twice. Unless they are hostile.
IV. Meeting the Melnorme Trader
Now you will meet the Melnorme Trader, you will buy important technology
from him to improve your ship, as well as fuel and information.
A. You will now proceed to go to Alpha Centauri (approx 150.0 x 100.0).
B. You will see the Melnorme ship flying around, approach it, talk with
him, and to get credits look at our list of Rainbow Worlds at the end
of the guide, also collect Bio data. You will be able to find the
trader at any Super Giant star.
C. In the future, be sure to buy up the Melnorme's technologies, they
come in handy.
V. Orz Territory
Here, you will talk to the Orz and also get all the items you need from
this area.
A. Proceed to Delta Vulcupulae (approx. 372.1 x 261.9).
B. Talk to the ships thuroughly (do not ask about the Androsynth).
C. Explore the planets until you find what the Orz describe as their
special place (in the same star system). Convince them to let you land
and go to the energy spot and pick up the Taalo Shield.
D. Proceed to Epsilon Vulcupulae, Planet II, this is the former
homeworld of the Androsynth, land and touch several ruins until
you pass through them.
VI. The Arilou and Quasi-Space
Here you will meet the Arilou and also start using Quasi-Space for faster
(and cheaper) travel.
A. Proceed to the top star in the Circini star cluster (43.8 x 637.2).
Move above the star a little. Stay in Hyperspace and wait until the
17th of the month, you will see what appears to a Giant Star on your
display, fall into the portal. By the way, it only lasts 3 days every
month (17th-20th).
B. You are now in Quasi-Space. Look at the starmap, plot to the Large
star off to the right, this is the Arilou homeworld, explore everything
you can by talking to them thouroughy. Every other star in Quasi Space
map leads to a certain spot in Hyper-Space, look for the list at the end
of the guide.
C. Plot course to the spot in Quasi Space closest to the Arilou home
world. Enter it, you are back in Arilou space.
D. Proceed to Alpha Pavonis (approx 55.0 x 800.0). Planet VII.
Then land and go to the energy spot and from the Ur-Quan wreckage
get the warp pod from the ship.
E. Go back to the entrance to Quasi Space on the 17th, once your in go
to the homeworld and the Arilou will install the Portal Spawner on
your ship. From now on when you use this you can call a portal to
Quasi space from anywhere in the galaxy.
VII. Getting Rid of Those Annyoning Probes
When your traveling through space, you encounter those annoying Slylandro
probes, and are forced to fight them, heres how you get rod of them.
A. Make your way to Beta Corvi (30.0 x 975.0). Go to the Gas Giant (yes,
to thw GAS GIANT itself), here you will talk to the Slylandro gasbags.
B. After chit-chatting about the past, ask them about the probes, they
will tell you about them, you have to prod them about the probe's
program and the replication ability. After you ask them to tell you
about the program's priority table, it is obvious what to say. Make
sure you dont leave without them giving you the self-destruct sequence
dont worry, you wont see it yerself, but you know it.
VIII. Meeting the Pkunk and Getting the Clear Spindle
Here you will travel to Pkunk territory and meet them and get the clear

or QuasiSpace. Proceed to the first planet of the system.
B. Converse with them and ask them all the questions, dont insult them.

source, you've got the Burvix caster, you will need this shortly.

XI. The Thraddash and the Aqua Helix
A. Proceed to the Zeta Draconis (275.0 x 875.0).
B. The first thing you must do is win the respect of the Thraddash,

once you defeat that battle group, keep clearing out a few groups,
like 15 ships, and then talk to them again, see if they praise you.
Ask them all throughout about the Aqua Helix, then go to the planet
and ask them if you can look around the surface, then take the aqua
helix, and leave.
