May 05,2025 Author: Nora

Embark on a thrilling intergalactic journey with *Starship Traveller*, the latest addition to the Fighting Fantasy Classics library. Adapted by Tin Man Games from Stephen Jackson's 1984 classic, this sci-fi gamebook is now available on Steam, Android, and iOS, offering a modern take on a beloved adventure.

In *Starship Traveller*, you step into the shoes of a starship captain, navigating the unknown reaches of the universe after being sucked into the mysterious Seltsian Void. With no clear path back to familiar space, you must explore alien worlds, engage in delicate negotiations with new civilizations, and battle through intense space combat. Each choice you make will impact your survival, the fate of your crew, and the condition of your ship.

Tin Man Games has utilized its Gamebook Adventures Engine to modernize the experience while preserving the essence of the original. As captain, you'll manage up to seven crew members, dispatching them on perilous missions to uncharted planets. The game features a sophisticated tracking system that manages stats, handles ship-to-ship combat, and provides detailed maps, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the adventure.

With classic dice rolls and customizable difficulty settings, it's perfect for players who want to enjoy the story without the intensity. The physics-based, interactive dice rolls add a tangible sense of engagement to every decision you make.
