What is it about?
Starfinder first edition combines space exploration with fantasy elements. Protagonists can discover artifacts in alien temples, confront undead empires, or investigate powerful corporations. Its core rulebook presents the original game, separately from second edition and that later game’s compatibility with Pathfinder second edition rules.
02
At the table
Players form a crew and customize futuristic heroes. They undertake battles, exploration, and missions on different planets using the first edition’s own science-fantasy rules framework.
