StarPicker

StarPicker is a space navigation game about finding stars that have fallen from the sky. You explore planets with a map and compass, identify your location and choose routes to collect the lost stars. The mission is assigned to Minna Vellamo, the youngest Nobel Prize winner, who travels with Harvey, a clumsy, talkative robot, and Janus White, a retired footballer known as “Electric Eel.” Janus hopes the mission will restore his former glory, while Minna’s bold, independent and determined nature may complicate how well they get along.

Explore the planets

StarPicker includes more than 60 levels across five environments, along with unlimited hand-drawn maps whose contents are regularly updated. As you navigate, you can meet curious animals and uncover the mysterious history of each planet. The game also has a cosmic soundtrack in a late-1960s style, tailored to each level.

Game modes

Three modes offer different navigation challenges:

• Main Race mode: Take a more relaxed route through the landscapes, practise map reading, meet animals and uncover each planet’s history.
• Electric Eel mode: Rely on observation and precision to tackle unknown territory, without a time limit.
• Berserk mode: Reveal stars one by one under a time limit and avoid obstacles in complex environments.

Improve your navigation

You can adjust the game options to suit your abilities and develop your navigation skills using a compass and map-reading methods based on the International Standard for Orienteering Maps. Online rankings and replay analysis let you compare route choices with players around the world and review your performance.
