Space Quest V: The Next Mutation Hints
How can I beat Quirk at this game?
1 of 6: When in doubt, cheat.
2 of 6: Remember that you have access to the Sierra control panel, but he doesn't.
3 of 6: So you can save and restore to speed up your progress.
4 of 6: Specifically, I would suggest restoring if you don't get a hit and saving if you do to maximize your chances of winning.
5 of 6: You can also use those probes to speed up your game.
6 of 6: Launch as many probes as you can and then restore when they're gone. If you found any ships, you can hit them after you've restored.
