'''Space Quest: The Sarien Encounter''' was the first game in the [[Space Quest series]]. The game follows a janitor on board the scientific spaceship Arcada. After waking from an on-duty nap in a broom closet, he discovers that an evil alien race called the Sariens stole the Star Generator, an experimental weapon that was being held on board, and killed all of the Arcada's crew members. | '''Space Quest: The Sarien Encounter''' was the first game in the [[Space Quest series]].

==Game Variants== | |||
The MS-DOS, Apple II, Apple IIGS, Atari ST, Tandy 1000, and PCjr versions are similar in terms of graphics. The Amiga version used an extended palette. | |||
==Installation== | |||
===Required data files - SCI=== | |||
For more information on how ScummVM uses game data files, see the [https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/use_scummvm/game_files.html user documentation]. | |||
WARNING: Unlike other games, SCI games have significant variation in the naming of required files. | |||
They also can load supplementary files by resource maps, so it is recommended to keep all files in the game data directory from the CD. | |||
Unless otherwise specified, do '''NOT''' remove any file from the directory, even if it does not appear on the following list, since this will likely cause weird bugs. | |||
Copy all files to the game directory. Some games need additional work: | |||
'''''Floppy games with RESOURCE.p01, p02, etc. and/or RESOURCE.a01, a02, etc. files''''' | |||
* Concatenate all RESOURCE.p0* files to RESOURCE.000 (e.g. <code>copy /b RESOURCE.p0* RESOURCE.000</code> on Windows, or <code>cat RESOURCE.p0* > RESOURCE.000</code> on *nix). | |||
* Concatenate all RESOURCE.a0* files to RESOURCE.AUD (e.g. <code>copy /b RESOURCE.a0* RESOURCE.AUD</code> on Windows, or <code>cat RESOURCE.a0* > RESOURCE.AUD</code> on *nix). | |||
===Required data files - AGI=== | |||
'''''All platforms''''' | |||
*<nowiki>*VOL.* (e.g. GRVOL.0, KQ4VOL.11, VOL.1)</nowiki> | |||
*OBJECT | |||
*<nowiki>*DIR* (e.g. PQDIR, MH2DIR, DMDIR, DIRS, LOGDIR, PICDIR, SNDDIR, VIEWDIR)</nowiki> | |||
*WORDS.TOK | |||
and if available | |||
*PAL.* | |||
'''''Apple IIGS''''' | |||
These files are needed to enable music playback | |||
*<nowiki>*.SYS16 (e.g. KQ.SYS16, LL.SYS16, MG.SYS16, BC.SYS16, SQ2.SYS16)</nowiki> | |||
*SIERRASTANDARD | |||
==Controls== | |||
=== Predictive input dialog=== | |||
The Predictive Input Dialog is a ScummVM aid for running AGI engine games (which notoriously require command line input) on devices with limited keyboard support. | |||
For more information, see the [[AGI/Predictive Dialog]] wiki page. | |||
