Lost in the vast expanse of space, you assume the role of a starship captain in Starship Traveller, a newly released adaptation of Stephen Jackson's 1984 classic. Now available on Steam, Android, and iOS, this sci-fi gamebook adventure plunges you into the unknown regions of the universe after a perilous journey through the Seltsian Void. Your mission: navigate alien worlds, engage in interstellar diplomacy, and engage in thrilling deep-space battles. Every choice you make will impact your survival, your crew, and the fate of your starship.

Tin Man Games has revitalized Starship Traveller using their Gamebook Adventures Engine, creating a modern experience faithful to the original. Manage a crew of up to seven individuals, sending them on perilous missions to uncharted planets. A streamlined tracking system manages stats, ship combat, and maps, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the narrative.
