About this game

Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold is JAM Productions’ first-person DOS shooter, published by Apogee. This shareware edition takes you into the Star Institute, the first of the game’s missions. Read the briefing before exploring its corridors and confronting the guards and creatures inside.

Use the arrow keys to move forward or backward and turn, and Ctrl to fire. Enter confirms menu choices and continues the mission briefing. F1 opens the original help; its quick reference also documents F2 for saving and F3 for loading. Esc leaves help or opens the menu. This site does not replace the original settings, so consult the in-game control page if you change them. Space operates doors and switches. Hold Right Shift with a direction to run, or Alt with Left/Right to strafe. Number keys 1–5 select weapons you own, Tab toggles the map window, and P pauses.

This bundle uses the original 3.0 shareware release from November 1994, while the game’s first release dates to 1993. The installer, BSSW30.SHR archive, all extracted game files and Apogee’s VENDOR.DOC are preserved. Only Mission 1 is offered here; this is not the six-mission registered edition. The acceptance scope is startup and opening-level input, not a complete mission or cross-device save guarantee.
