7 Days a Skeptic
If you liked 5 Days A Stranger, then you'll be pleased to know that the point'n'click follow up game, 7 Days a Skeptic, from the same author is also available as a free download. Once again the link to do the download requires a bit of hunting but it's well worth the effort. This one is set in the future, aboard The Mephistopheles, a small ageing spacecraft:

The crew of the Mephistopheles discover an unknown artefact floating unprotected in deep space: an ancient metal locker. Ignoring advice from the Federation to leave it for a research vessel, the captain brings it aboard and prepares to lift the lid...

i downloaded this game a long time ago too!!! extremely creepy, especially the chase scenes!!!! hint for the chase scenes:

HINT: (click box to highlight/fade)
dont immediately click on a door, because as soon as you click to go through it, you cant change your mind and run away or something, and ive quite often died because the person/weird dead thing thats chasing me comes out the door im going through

I tried to download this game and got a load of garbage about my computer needing repairing. I am staying away.

:
Both really great games. The interfaces are both a little clunky, but the stories are amazing, and the endings certainly are worth the effort. Great picks!

Save OFTEN in 7 days though. Lots of ways to die, often right after a long cutscene.

hey, if anyone likes this game, they can try the game 6 DAYS ASSASSIN. It isn't really part of this storyline, but it's made by the same people. The game is short but fun, and the puzzles are kind of challenging. Here's the website download:

hope you like it! ;)
