Description

Away Team: The Voyages of the Pandora is a game that lets you explore the unknown reaches of the galaxy, commanding the interstellar survey ship Pandora on its missions of discovery. As you venture into distant star systems, you'll assemble away teams from the ship's crew and equipment to explore planets, moons, and other sites of interest. Your goals are ambitious - locate and document alien life forms, collect vital exo-DNA, identify environments suitable for human settlement, and search for intelligent life, all while trying to stay alive. The game offers multiple modes of play, catering to different tastes and preferences. You can embark on an epic solo campaign, spanning seven star systems and over 80 hours of playtime, with a narrative that twists and turns as you progress. Alternatively, you can play a solo or two-player game, exploring a single star system with adjustable difficulty levels and crew experience. With its unique blend of area movement, events, and narrative choices, Away Team: The Voyages of the Pandora promises a thrilling experience for fans of science fiction and space exploration. Designed by John H. Butterfield, this game builds upon his earlier work, The Voyage of the BSM Pandora, and takes the concept of branching narratives to new heights.
