Man, for 75 bucks you can also get a tshirt, autograph of your choice, the soundtrack, a pdf guide, and a coffee table book.
I may have to get this just to brag that I’ve actually played it.
Okay, now the links aren’t working. I can’t find the digital download.
Wow………I honestly didn’t think I’d ever live to see the day !!!!
CONGRATULATIONS to the entire DarkStar team !!!
Why can’t I find the digital download? That Strategy First site is not helpful. Can’t find it anywhere.
Hi Laura,
Strategy First is feverishly wrapping up the special build they have to do in order to sell DARKSTAR. When it’s up, they have promised to sell it to fans for 25% off for their wait. They are also in the midst of an entire rebuild of their site, so those Canadians are sweating bullets right now. I just hung up the phone with Bob Eaglesham at SF and he says the build is working flawlessly and they should have it up pretty soon. If you get tired of waiting, go to the darkstarstore and order. After you do, email me through the site and let me know you ordered via the mst3kinfo site here and We’ll throw in some glossies free and rush it out to you. This offer is good until Strategy First gets their stuff all fixed. J. Allen Williams
Thank you J. Allen. I’ll just wait for the download link.
I hate to sound so uninformed but what does this have to do with MST?
me,
You’re not really uninformed. Darkstar has been so long in the making that not everyone is familiar with it. The tie-in is that the game features former MST3K staffers Beez McKeever, Trace Beaulieu, Frank Conniff, Joel Hodgson, Mary Jo Pehl and J. Elvis Weinstein. And it’s narrated by frequently-riffed actor Peter Graves, in his last major project before his death.
Does anyone actually have a copy of this game/movie yet? If so, can you provide a review?
How can I tell if my computer can play this game? I see the requirements (Memory: 2 GB RAM, Hard Disk Space: 14 GB), but my free space is only 5 gigs. I really want to make sure I can play this, because I wdon’t want to happen like when I pickied up Transformers:WFC (mainly not enough memory).
@Erhardt I’m Peter Graves at the University of Minnesota!
Well, I’m off to Hell to grab a snowcone. Anybody want anything?
I’m not a gamer, so I hope the video clips will end up on youtube. Actually, since it’s essentially an FMV game, I really wish Spoony would review it.
YAY! Glad see it is done.
Just ordered my copy and emailed (via website) about the glossies. Not 10 minutes later J. Allen emailed me back to say thanks and let me know they will be included and it will ship tomorrow. What a great guy!
@ Ryan: Get us “Spoony’s” info and we’ll send him a copy for review toot sweet.
@ Hamtronix: I personally packed you up, and stuck in some great goodies.
Anyone ordering through this site will get free stuff if you email like Hamtronix did.
And thanks for believing in us all these years, I know it was difficult to wait and keep the faith, but you guys did and I really appreciate it. For those of you going to CT in Missouri this weekend, if you see me there come say hello!

Decided to make this the one gift I allow myself for Christmas this year. I’ll be damned if I’m waiting until Christmas to open it, though…
Ordered mine. “I feel like a kid in some kind of store”.
It looks like I’ll have to skip this one. No job in 7 months means no game for me.
Hey, Milhouse, I mean Hamlet Fan, I feel that way too. I got mine ordered yesterday and received my reply from J. Allen late in the afternoon, telling me my goodies would be packed up and shipped today! Woohoo!
How long until the Rifftrax for this is available?
