Download Plan 9 From Outer Space - DOS game

Plan 9 From Outer Space is a 1992 adventure game inspired by the famously strange science-fiction film of the same name.

Players explore the world, solve puzzles, and interact with characters while following a story that refuses to behave like a normal science-fiction adventure. Its charm comes from its uniqueness rather than technical perfection. Plan 9 From Outer Space celebrates the strange side of entertainment, proving that sometimes unforgettable experiences are created by ideas that are completely different from everything else. It is a game that proudly wears its weirdness like a badge, inviting players to enjoy the journey even when they are not entirely sure what is happening.

Plan 9 From Outer Space review

PC Review - Issue 8 (1992): "There was so much potential for a decent game within Plan 9's dire plot and general naffness that the game seems a real cop-out. I'm a real fan of all those awful B-movies, and likes of The Creature From The Black Lagoon and King Kong are just gagging for decent games based on them. Perhaps the mistake was in making the game an adventure, which snowballed as the coders at Gremlin Ireland realised there wasn't a plot to follow. However, whatever the reason, Plan 9 is another great missed opportunity. Ok, people would have whined if the game had turned into another multi-stage driving and jumping mishmash as favoured by Ocean at one point, but in its quest to offer something different, Gremlin has lost its way a little. It's a pity and not necessarily its fault, given the subject matter, but I couldn't help but come away from Plan 9 From Outer Space extremely disappointed."
