Story description

A battered freighter, a crew that argues like family and a client who did not give a last name. You lift in an hour.

Free Trader Marigold is an interactive science-fiction adventure about life aboard an independent cargo ship, hauling whatever pays across frontier ports, stations and moons.

Jobs, ports and a ship that talks back

  • Take contracts, haul cargo and handle customs, repairs and favors, each job a small adventure.
  • Visit ports with their own food, languages and trouble, and find out what some cargo really is.
  • Live aboard: galley banter, old ship noises and a crew that has your back.

Captain Brandt has a code about cargo and crew. Fuse keeps the engines running and the superstitions alive. Zeph flies like a racer and hides a kind heart. The jobs, ports and trouble are different every time you play.

Warm, witty found family

Adventurous and human, with danger that is real but never grim.

The ramp is down and the clock is ticking. Do you come aboard?
