Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders is the second graphic adventure by Lucasfilm Games, after Maniac Mansion, created using the SCUMM engine. The game was developed on a Commodore 64 and released in 1988 for DOS and on the Commodore platform. One year later was ported to Amiga and Atari ST.
Zak McKracken is considered by some one of the best adventure ever created, despite not being perfect. Nevertheless it's still one of the most popular adventures titles.

@Richard please read the FAQs. Don't use emulator save states with Amiga games. Use the in-game save feature and remember to quit the game with the proper key.
HI all... The game ist great..
I do have some problems with saved game states... after loading an old game state the game crushes after a short period of tim... tried in on two computers with the same result... how can i save properly to play another day?
What? So bad review? This is one of the best point and click adventure. Overall I am wondered, why Maniac Mansions, Monkey Island and so on are not in the top 10 of the reviews.
