Weird
Worlds: Return to Infinite Space is the sequel to Strange Adventures in InfiniteSpace, which was possibly the first game to bring all the thrill of an epic
space saga to your desktop in under twenty minutes. Weird Worlds of course
delivers the same grandiose gameplay as its predecessor, and it still only
takes about twenty minutes to play (though now players can choose to shorten
or lengthen the time). New encounters,
new lifeforms, new technologies, new starships, new events, and a whole
warpcore load more can be found in Weird Worlds. Combat, while still avoiding the number-crunching intensity of Star Fleet Battles, is deeper, and is an
amazing spectacle to behold.
Game Industry News (>>)
rated it 4.5/5 and had this to say: "WWRIF makes a perfect gift for just
about anyone who likes space and science fiction, even if they are not a
hardcore gamer. Anyone can appreciate the literary humor found in the game.
And the simple gameplay is easy to learn and difficult to master."
Weird Worlds can be found in the StrategyPage Game Store.
