Star Traders: Frontiers

Star Traders: Frontiers

More games like this?
I play this all of the time on iOS, and I am gonna pick it up on here. Are there more games like this on Steam?

No I dont think there is. Steam doesnt even list any games that are like it on the store page. It is similar to the now ancient Starflight and Star Control games, but those probably arent on steam....

Just checked, Starflight is not on steam, but Star Control is.

It would actually be pretty cool if they added some features of starflight into this game though... Ill have to put something in the suggestion box...

The X series is also somewhat similar, as well as Starpoint Gemini (2, and Warlords in particular). Similar ideas, just completely different approaches and gameplay.

There are a few classics with a somewhat similar atmosphere: Wing Commander Privateer, Wing Commander Privateer II, the Pirates! series and the Port Royale series.
I don´t know if they are on Steam, but you can find them at GOG for sure.

There are plenty of modern takes on Privateer. Rebel Galaxy: Outlaw, Starpoint Gemini 3, and many others over the years, like Drox Operative.

There's also more tangential games like the Star Wolves series, and such.



I have played far too many space games. :gravestone:

Must mention "Space Rangers" (a game of all trades) to complete above lists.

I just picked up this game during the sale. Never played it, but it looks cool. I have no idea how it plays.

But if you want a sort of action RPG spaceship sort of game, check out Star Valor. It's an awesome game, and hats off to the dev.

I havent played much games like this on Steam.

However, a similar game that comes to mind would be Starsector. It's not on steam yet sadly

It reminds me somehow of that Star Wolves franchise I played 100 years ago , or so :steamhappy:

I think 3 was the best

https://store.steampowered.com/app/46260/Star_Wolves_3_Civil_War/

than 1

https://store.steampowered.com/app/46270/Star_Wolves/

the second part was not so good

https://store.steampowered.com/app/46280/Star_Wolves_2/

But as they are now all on sale, you could just get them all for around 3.- and decide,

The problem is, that the battles are RTS and not roundbased

Games where you manage a crew on a starship (not open world)
FTL 10/10 game

Games where you manage a starship trader

Starsector (Not on steam, for sale directly through their website while in "early access")
Freelancer (considered a classic, no crew though)
Starpoint Gemini 2
Everspace 2 (everspace 1 isn't open world, still fun)
Elite Dangerous
No Man's Sky

games where you manage a crew in a very "alive" "evolving" open world
Kenshi. Amazing game. Not space.

Avorion is basically a realtime 3D version of this with minecraft like ship building.

Starsector looks super interesting. Shame it's not on Steam.

Starsector is an amazing game with a brilliant modding scene!! so much extra content for the game.
