The Captain - Pocket Edition

You are Captain Thomas Welmu, a Spacefleet science officer stranded on the far side of the galaxy. Dark forces are racing toward Earth—and you carry the only thing that can stop them. As captain, you travel the galaxy against the clock. Plot the shortest route home, or detour for an experimental wormhole? Chase a distant distress signal, or raise funds to upgrade your engine? Explore new worlds and decide how far you’ll go: interfere with a pre-space civilization, uncover a covert military secret, return a dying life-form’s brain to its people—or use it to upgrade your ship. What could go wrong? Plenty. Fight epic space battles with Type 2 Vacuum Rockets and a freshly polished Plasma Gun—or slip by and hope nobody notices. When pirates wreck your ship, repair her yourself on the cheap, pay the professionals, buy a Shield Buster, or pick up a couple of convenient nuclear warheads. Collect new friends or make new enemies. Sacrifice someone for the greater good? Rat out an undercover cop to get home faster? Hide a life-changing truth so they’ll stay by your side? Social-engineer your way home through a galaxy of tough choices: blast a vault or find a quieter way in, pull an undercover heist with a consciousness transmitter, escape an automated maximum-security prison in space—and maybe look fabulous in tight pink swimwear. The decisions are all up to you. You won’t be able to save everyone.
