help Space Quest V FAQ

How does Roger Wilco become a captain in Space Quest V?

Roger cheats his way through the StarCon aptitude test and is assigned command of the garbage scow SCS Eureka. His supposedly menial waste-collection mission leads him to a mutagenic contamination plot involving Captain Quirk.

Was Space Quest V made by the same studio as the earlier games?

Space Quest V was developed by Dynamix and published by Sierra On-Line for MS-DOS in 1993. It was the first main entry developed outside Sierra's internal team and was designed without series co-creator Scott Murphy.

Does Space Quest V have full voice acting?

No, Space Quest V was released as a text-based adventure without a separate talkie edition. That distinguishes it from the CD-ROM version of Space Quest IV, which featured recorded dialogue.

What science-fiction series does Space Quest V parody most heavily?

Its starship command structure and Captain Quirk character primarily spoof Star Trek. The full title, Roger Wilco: The Next Mutation, also plays on Star Trek: The Next Generation.
