Overview

What ABG knows about this game

In the year 3250, the Galactic Empire is at peace. Mankind’s heroes are not warriors — they’re the daring Traders who journey between the stars. With your trusty hyperdrive ship, you are a Star Trader. You will build trading stations on alien worlds, and race other Traders to be the first to deliver cargoes from world to world. Your goal: to acquire great wealth — and please the almighty Emperor — until you can earn the title of STAR TSAR! Brought to you by original creator David Ladyman, Star Traders has been redesigned and upgraded since its release by Steve Jackson Games in 1987. In it you are a heroic starship captain navigating the galaxy's trade lanes in search of fortune and glory. You must make deals, deliver cargoes and traverse risky jumps, all while competing against your fellow captains in a SciFi themed universe filled with iconic tropes.
