Lost in the vast expanse of the universe, you assume the role of starship captain in the newly released Starship Traveller, a Fighting Fantasy Classics gamebook now available on Steam, Android, and iOS. Based on Stephen Jackson's 1984 classic, this adaptation by Tin Man Games plunges you into an intergalactic adventure.

Pulled through the treacherous Seltsian Void, you find yourself stranded, with no easy path home. Explore alien worlds, navigate complex negotiations with strange civilizations, and engage in thrilling deep-space battles. Every choice you make impacts your survival, your crew, and the fate of your starship.

Tin Man Games has modernized Starship Traveller using their Gamebook Adventures Engine, enhancing the experience while preserving the spirit of the original. Manage a crew of up to seven members, dispatching them on perilous missions to uncharted planets. A streamlined tracking system handles stats, ship combat, and maps, allowing you to immerse yourself in the narrative.
