Starship Traveller: Fighting Fantasy

Lost in the vast expanse of space, with Earth a distant memory? That's your predicament in Starship Traveller, the groundbreaking sci-fi adventure that started it all. Originally penned by Steve Jackson and launched in 1984, it was the very first entry in the iconic Fighting Fantasy series.

Now, Starship Traveller blasts off onto Android as the newest addition to Fighting Fantasy Classics, Tin Man Games' digital library app. This app houses a treasure trove of Fighting Fantasy gamebooks, spanning from the beloved 1980s originals to the latest releases.

Choose Your Own Adventure (or Just Choose This Retro Sci-Fi Gem)

You are the captain of the Starship Traveller, and disaster strikes when you're unexpectedly sucked into the treacherous Seltsian Void. Stranded in an uncharted galaxy, your return to Earth seems impossible.

Your mission? Explore uncharted planets, navigate tricky diplomatic encounters with alien civilizations, and make crucial decisions that will determine the fate of your crew. Every choice carries weight, so steer clear of any deep-space battles that might lead to unfortunate vaporizations.

Tin Man Games has supercharged the experience with their innovative Gamebook Adventures Engine, adding a new layer of interactivity. A comprehensive crew management system lets you assemble a team of up to seven crew members.

Simon Lissaman's stunning new illustrations breathe fresh life into the game, while adjustable difficulty settings and a "Free Read" mode cater to all players. Embark on this thrilling journey by downloading Fighting Fantasy Classics from the Google Play Store.

What's Next? Eye of the Dragon is Coming Soon!

In approximately six weeks, Fighting Fantasy Classics will unveil another classic: Eye of the Dragon, by Ian Livingston. Prepare to delve into a perilous labyrinth, battling monsters, evading deadly traps, and hunting for the legendary Eye of the Dragon.

That’s all for this new gamebook announcement. Stay tuned for our next feature on Delicious: The First Course, the latest installment in the Delicious series, where we explore Emily's life before the main storyline.
