Plot
In the 22nd century, an Earth-like planet able to sustain human life called Hope was discovered. Hope is located in an unexplored area referred to as the Purple Void. The player may presume the role of three different characters, a research scientist whose goal is to research various life forms and astronomical phenomena, a space pirate who must search the area for anything of substantial value, and a Military Officer going on expeditionary missions. The player encounters, befriends, collects, and fights different alien creatures and artifacts every game.
Gameplay
Like its predecessor, Weird Worlds creates a new starmap each time the game is played. Stars, black holes, planets, nebulae, artifacts, alien patrols, gadgets, lifeforms and dozens of events and encounters are randomized intelligently for each game session.
Unlike Strange Adventures, Weird Worlds allows the player to travel to black holes, using a device that protects the player (and the fleet) from the effects of intense gravity. One special mission allows the player to enter a black hole to fight a nearly indestructible battlestation. The "Void" is now more populated than before - most races encountered have a homeworld which also allows item trade.
Weird Worlds features 3 mission types (scientist, pirate, military captain), 3 starmap sizes, 30 starship types and adversaries, a large amount of items including different weapons, engines, shields, shipboard systems, alien artifacts and lifeforms, different star and planet types, 10 alien races and a RTS style combat simulator.
