Starship Traveller: First Sci-Fi Adventure Joins Fighting Fantasy Classics

Are you lost in space with no way home? That's the thrilling premise of Starship Traveller, your mission to navigate back to Earth. Originally penned by Steve Jackson and released in 1984, this gamebook marks the inaugural sci-fi adventure in the iconic Fighting Fantasy series.

Now, Starship Traveller has made its way to Android as the latest addition to the Fighting Fantasy Classics collection. This digital library app, brought to you by Tin Man Games, encapsulates the essence of the Fighting Fantasy gamebooks, from the vintage editions of the 1980s to the modern releases.

Choose Your Own Adventure or Just Choose This Retro Sci-Fi

As the captain of the Starship Traveller, you find yourself in a dire situation after being pulled into the Seltsian Void. Stranded in an uncharted galaxy, your challenge is to find a path back to Earth. Your journey involves exploring mysterious planets and navigating tricky diplomatic scenarios with alien civilizations. Each decision you make is critical—avoid missteps that could lead to your crew's demise in interstellar conflicts.

Tin Man Games has enhanced the experience with their Gamebook Adventures Engine, making the adventure more engaging. A comprehensive crew management system allows you to assemble a team of up to seven crew members. The new artwork by Simon Lissaman revitalizes the visuals, and you can adjust the difficulty or switch to 'Free Read' mode to simply immerse yourself in the story. Dive into this revamped classic by downloading Fighting Fantasy Classics from the Google Play Store.

In just six weeks, Fighting Fantasy Classics will introduce another gem, Eye of the Dragon. Crafted by Ian Livingston, this adventure thrusts players into a perilous labyrinth where they'll battle monsters, evade traps, and seek the legendary Eye of the Dragon gem.
