About

Zak McKracken: Between Time and Space is an unofficial fan sequel to Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders (1988). This freeware point-and-click adventure by German studio Artificial Hair Bros. was developed over seven years without LucasArts' involvement or license. The original German version debuted in 2008, followed by a Director's Cut with English and French translations in 2015.

Players reprise the role of Zak McKracken, a frustrated boulevard reporter from San Francisco. While chasing a scoop, Zak stows away on a Russian freighter flying from Memphis to Zürich. Mid-flight, a UFO - seemingly in search for our headline hunter - halts the plane, and aliens board. Caught before he can escape, Zak blacks out.

The next day, he wakes in his apartment, dismissing the experience as a dream - until he notices a bump on his head. Realizing it was real but unable to remember why he was on board, he sets out to uncover the truth.

Classic point-and-click adventure awaits, packed with tongue-in-cheek easter eggs and references to the original game.

NOTE:
The game was repackaged to AppImage portable executable and uploaded to the Internet Archive for you guys to download and enjoy. However, direct download from the Archive is rather slow, so I recommend the Torrent link.
