The Fighting Fantasy Classics library continues to expand, bringing the thrill of classic gamebooks to modern audiences. The latest addition, Starship Traveller, adapted by Tin Man Games from Stephen Jackson's 1984 original, is now available on Steam, Android, and iOS. In this sci-fi gamebook, you step into the shoes of a starship captain stranded in an uncharted region of the universe following a passage through the Seltsian Void. Your mission is to navigate back home, exploring alien worlds, negotiating with new civilizations, and engaging in intense space battles. Every choice you make impacts your survival, your crew, and the fate of your ship.
Tin Man Games has enhanced Starship Traveller using their Gamebook Adventures Engine, preserving the essence of the original while adding modern touches. You'll command a team of up to seven crew members, dispatching them on perilous missions to unknown planets. The game includes a comprehensive tracking system that manages stats, ship-to-ship combat, and maps, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the adventure.
For those seeking a less intense experience, the Free Read mode offers a more relaxed journey with classic dice rolls and adjustable difficulty settings. The dice rolls are physics-based and interactive, enhancing the sense of engagement and the impact of your decisions.
