Embark on a thrilling journey through the cosmos with "Starship Traveller," the latest addition to the Fighting Fantasy Classics library, now adapted by Tin Man Games for modern platforms. Available on Steam, Android, and iOS, this sci-fi gamebook brings Stephen Jackson's beloved 1984 work to life, allowing you to step into the shoes of a starship captain lost in an unknown part of the universe. After being pulled through the enigmatic Seltsian Void, you find yourself stranded with no clear path home. Your mission is to explore alien worlds, engage with unfamiliar civilizations, and navigate through intense deep-space battles, where every decision you make directly impacts your survival, the well-being of your crew, and the fate of your starship.

Tin Man Games has utilized its Gamebook Adventures Engine to modernize "Starship Traveller," enhancing the gameplay while preserving the essence of the original. As captain, you'll manage a team of up to seven crew members, dispatching them on perilous missions to explore new planets. The game features a comprehensive tracking system that manages everything from your crew's stats to ship-to-ship combat and maps, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the adventure without worrying about the details.
