Embark on an epic intergalactic journey with "Starship Traveller," the latest addition to the Fighting Fantasy Classics library, now revitalized by Tin Man Games for today's platforms. Available on Steam, Android, and iOS, this sci-fi gamebook transports you into the shoes of a starship captain lost in the vast expanse of space after being sucked into the mysterious Seltsian Void. With no straightforward path back to familiar territory, you must navigate through alien worlds, engage in diplomacy with unknown civilizations, and battle through intense space conflicts. Your choices are pivotal, shaping the fate of your survival, your crew, and your starship.
Tin Man Games has skillfully modernized Stephen Jackson's 1984 classic using its Gamebook Adventures Engine, enhancing gameplay while preserving the essence of the original story. As the captain, you'll oversee a team of up to seven crew members, dispatching them on perilous missions to explore uncharted planets. The game's intuitive tracking system manages everything from character stats to ship-to-ship combat and maps, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the adventure.
For those seeking a more relaxed experience, "Starship Traveller" offers a Free Read mode. This mode features classic dice rolls with adjustable difficulty settings, perfect for those who prefer a less intense journey. The physics-based and interactive dice rolls add a tangible sense of impact to your decisions, enhancing the overall experience.
