Starship Captains – Sci-Fi Strategy Board Game for 2–4 Players

Freshly Promoted. Mildly Underqualified. Totally Ready for Adventure.

The galaxy awaits in Starship Captains, a clever Eurostyle strategy game where players take command of their very first starship. It may be a little outdated, and your crew might still be figuring out which end of the console is up — but it’s yours. And it’s time to prove yourself among the stars.
Navigate space pirates, ancient tech, rival factions, and galactic missions in this engine-building, action-selection game of cosmic leadership.

Manage a crew of cadets, ensigns, androids, and officers, each with unique roles and strengths. Promote them to unlock new capabilities, earn medals to improve performance, and install cutting-edge tech to supercharge your ship’s systems. The galaxy is ever-shifting, and missions are plentiful — but only the sharpest captain will rise to the top.
