The Captain

The Captain is a space adventure about Captain Thomas Welmu, a Spacefleet science officer stranded on the far side of the galaxy. Dark forces are heading for Earth, and Welmu carries the only thing that can stop them. You race home, making choices about which people and civilizations to help, leave behind, save or destroy.

Travel the galaxy

You choose your route and how to spend your time. You can take the shortest way home or detour to try experimental wormhole technology, investigate a distant distress signal or raise funds to upgrade your engine.

Explore new worlds

Your journey brings choices about whether to interfere with a pre-space civilization, investigate a covert military base's terrible secret, or return a dying life-form's brain to its people or use it to upgrade your ship.

Fight or evade

You can face aggressive encounters with Type 2 Vacuum Rockets or a Plasma Gun, or try to slip past unnoticed. The galaxy also presents other ways through danger, including gaining access to a vault with explosives or finding a less intrusive approach, carrying out an undercover heist with a consciousness transmitter, and escaping an automated maximum-security prison in space.

Repair and upgrade

Pirates can damage your ship, leaving you to decide whether to repair it yourself or pay professionals. You can also buy equipment such as a Shield Buster or nuclear warheads.

Friends and enemies

You meet potential friends and enemies, and your choices affect those relationships. You may sacrifice a friend for the greater good, expose an undercover cop to get home faster, or keep a life-changing truth from someone to preserve their friendship.
