Starflight is a space exploration game with role-playing elements. The game is completely non-linear, allowing the player to venture to any star system and available planets. The main plot is advanced by following cryptic clues either received as transmissions or obtained as a result of successful communication with various alien races populating the universe. The player must first form a crew and customize the spaceship before blasting off from spacedock. A science officer, a navigator, an engineer, a communicator and a doctor have to be assigned. The player can choose between Humans, Velox, Thrynn, Elowan, and Android races. Each profession usually has a racial counterpart with the highest proficiency in it. Except Androids, members of every race can be trained in their skills by spending the game's currency. At start, the player can also acquire better weapons, armor, and shields for the ship, as well as outfit it with cargo pods. Terrain vehicle can be customized as well.
