About

Command the U.S.S. Voyager in this intense survival strategy game that blends deep ship management with narrative-driven roguelite mechanics. Stranded in the hostile Delta Quadrant, you must balance scarce resources, crew morale, and ethical dilemmas to bring your crew home.

Story

Set in a reimagined timeline of the beloved TV series, players face 'what if' scenarios that can drastically alter history. From embracing Borg technology to suffering tragic crew losses, your decisions shape a unique narrative where the journey home is anything but guaranteed.

Gameplay

Operate on a tension-filled cycle system where every movement consumes vital deuterium. Manage ship repairs, assign crew to tactical stations during combat, and assemble away teams based on specific talents, all while navigating a procedural map that rewards boldness but punishes carelessness.

Unlike traditional action games, Across the Unknown emphasizes the psychological burden of leadership. Every cycle costs fuel, every battle risks crew lives, and every diplomatic failure narrows your window for survival.
