Star Trader RPG is a new mobile game available for Android smartphones by the Trese Brothers. You can play a free-roaming Captain in a galaxy full of political turmoil, pirate attacks, and discovery. You are free to be a peaceful merchant, trying to find the best runs for maximum profit. You can be a pirate, chasing said merchants as your prey. You could also be a bounty hunter, chasing the aforementioned pirates. You could also forgo all the chasing and try being an explorer, looting unexplored worlds for resources and lost treasures. You could be a proper military officer and enforce your leaders' will. You could also be a smuggler trying to hide from military officers, bounty hunters, pirates, aliens, and anyone else who would like whatever is in your cargo hold. Finally you could try being all at once while trying to survive a hostile galaxy at the same time.
In this game you are given a ship and a crew; what happens next is up to you. There are two flavors of the game; a free version and a paid version which expands the map, ship types available, and possible encounters. You can find the game on the Android Marketplace. Try out the free version and upgrade if you like it. The Brothers upgrade the game constantly and I have seen it blossom since it came out. I have a lot of fun playing Star Trader RPG and I can see it will continue to get better.
The tales on my blog are based on adventures I have had in the game. I think a game that fires up my imagination this well deserves a lot of praise. Try it out and see what you think.
