Starship Traveller: 1984 Novel Now a Sci-Fi Gamebook on PC, Mobile

Embark on an epic intergalactic journey with the latest addition to the Fighting Fantasy Classics library: Starship Traveller. Adapted from Stephen Jackson's 1984 classic by Tin Man Games, this sci-fi gamebook is now available on Steam, Android, and iOS, bringing the adventure to modern platforms.

In Starship Traveller, you assume the role of a starship captain lost in an unknown sector of the universe after being pulled through the mysterious Seltsian Void. With no clear path back to familiar space, you must navigate alien worlds, negotiate with strange civilizations, and engage in intense space battles. Every choice you make impacts your survival, the well-being of your crew, and the condition of your ship.

Tin Man Games has enhanced the original game using their Gamebook Adventures Engine, which modernizes the experience while preserving its essence. As captain, you will manage a team of up to seven crew members, dispatching them on perilous missions to explore uncharted planets. The game features a comprehensive tracking system that manages stats, ship-to-ship combat, and maps, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the adventure.

The dice rolls are physics-based and interactive, adding a tangible feel to your decisions.
