About

Take the helm and leave Earth behind! In Starhopper you captain a small starship through real stars near our Sun, from Alpha Centauri and Sirius out to giant Betelgeuse, the black hole at the centre of the Milky Way and the star nursery of the Orion Nebula. FLY AND EXPLORE Drag to fly around each star system, land on planets and stations, and jump along hyperlanes on the star map. Every system has its own planets, ports and places to scan, with real photos of the stars and fun facts about each one. JOBS, SIGNALS AND STORIES - Carry cargo and passengers between ports to earn credits - Answer mysterious signals and choose what happens next - Follow questlines with your guide Ada, from a lost telescope to the edge of the galaxy - Hunt down wanted rivals and Most Wanted Aces, and claim their bounties - Free ports from pirates and become their governor MEET THE GALAXY Make friends with five civilizations, each with its own ships and home stars, and learn their secrets. Some are friendly. Some take a little convincing. BUILD YOUR SHIP Buy new hulls at shipyards, fit lasers, shields, engines, a fuel scoop and drones, hire and refit wingmates, and win rare parts in turn-based battles against pirates, Aces and bosses. MADE FOR FAMILIES No ads. No accounts. No purchases. No data collected. Plays offline. Easy and Normal difficulty, and up to four captains on one device.

What's New in Starhopper

1.4.0

November 9, 2026

New high-detail art for ships, ports, planets and characters. Every star system now has its own landmark from the real night sky (the Milky Way, the Pleiades, the Horsehead Nebula and more) that sits on the system map, and hyperspace jumps carry you from one system's sky to the next. Sound now pauses when you switch apps and comes back when you return.
