Astrobound will embark you on a retro-inspired cosmic adventure with your crew in your own space vessel , where you will experience a variety of randomized events and encounters along the way. These may range from dangerous confrontations to whimsical tales and everything in between. The main gameplay design is inspired by classic adventure sims like The Oregon Trail, but with multiple twists and enhancements that will make every player's galactic trek a unique story and an engaging experience.
