Your strange adventure begins on the planet Hope, where you've been charged with the task of exploring the galaxy and returning with as much neat stuff as possible in just ten years. Unless you find a great star drive, that's usually not enough time to reach every star! You'll plan your route carefully, trade with friendly aliens when you can, and try not to get blown to dust by the miscellaneous bad guys you will inevitably encounter. [Cheapass Games] Expand

    Truckloads of fun. The adventures in SAIS may be strange, but they are wonderfully entertaining and thoroughly addictive.
  2. While a SAIS session may only take a few minutes don’t think that will be the only session you play. To paraphrase a famous potato chip commercial, bet you can’t play just once.

    While it's about as edifying and substantial as potato chips, it's also just as engaging and tasty.
  4. If you take SAIS for what it is, a little time-waster with funny and interesting twists, and don't think of it as the second coming of “Privateer” or complex space strategy, you may well find it enjoyable, kind of inventive and creative.
  5. The game's short length is what makes it so engaging...an addictive little game much like "Bejeweled" or "Tetris," but instead of being a puzzle, it's a little adventure that you can lose yourself in for a few minutes at a time.

    A light but oddly entertaining gaming hors d'oeuvre... And the price is right. [Oct 2002, p.75]
