Star Bastards

Star Bastards

A high-speed pursuit along the derelict starlanes of Route 663!

The Space Exploration Pole has run afoul of the powerful star-spanning Conglomerate and the lawdogs are on his trail. Help him evade justice or ride shotgun with the cop sworn to bring him in. Either way it’s a two-fisted, white-knuckled chase through the most dangerous and derelict part of the galaxy, chock full of memorable characters, scheming aliens and deadly traps.

This is the first gamebook released by Two-Fisted Fantasy. Actually it’s two gamebooks, sharing a common theme and game mechanics- depending on which character you pick at the start you’ll experience a completely different side of the story. Choose your protagonist and their space ship, your co-pilot and your starting gear, pick up a couple of dice and zoom off into weird space.
