Starship Traveller has just released on PC and mobile, transforming the 1984 novel into a sci-fi gamebook

The Fighting Fantasy Classics library continues to expand, with the latest addition being the sci-fi classic "Starship Traveller" by Stephen Jackson. Originally published in 1984, this beloved gamebook has been skillfully adapted by Tin Man Games into a modern interactive gamebook available on Steam, Android, and iOS.

In "Starship Traveller," you step into the shoes of a starship captain who finds themselves adrift in an uncharted sector of the universe after being drawn through the enigmatic Seltsian Void. Your mission is to navigate back to familiar space, exploring alien planets, negotiating with unknown species, and engaging in intense space combat. Every choice you make has a profound impact on your crew's survival, the condition of your ship, and your ultimate fate.

Tin Man Games has enhanced the original "Starship Traveller" using their Gamebook Adventures Engine, which modernizes the experience while preserving the essence of the original. As captain, you'll oversee a team of up to seven crew members, dispatching them on perilous missions across alien landscapes. The game features a sophisticated tracking system that manages statistics, space battles, and maps, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the adventure.

For those seeking a more relaxed experience, "Starship Traveller" offers a Free Read mode. This mode includes classic dice rolls with adjustable difficulty levels, ideal for a more casual adventure. The dice rolls themselves are physics-based and interactive, enhancing the feeling of engagement with every decision.
