Play it if you…
Good fit- Groups of 2-6 players who want coordinated starship bridge roles
- Science-fiction fans who prefer team-based simulation over solo play
- Players building a physical bridge setup with external lighting or connected hardware
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players looking for a solo-controlled ship experience rather than responsibilities distributed across a crew

- Players seeking a game without local device connections or additional bridge displays
Our take on Starship Horizons: Bridge Simulator
Instead of focusing on one controllable character, the game divides command among six bridge positions. Communication, delegated ship operations, and shared screens replace the usual solo cockpit structure with a crew-based simulation.
What is Starship Horizons: Bridge Simulator?
Starship Horizons is a multiplayer bridge simulator for 2-6 players.
Crew members take roles including Captain, Flight, Tactical, Science, Operations, and Engineering, then work together during galaxy travel or shorter missions. One copy supplies the main view screen, while other players connect locally through a PC, laptop, tablet, Chromebook, or Raspberry Pi. Extra displays can show alerts, shields, and galactic maps. The game also includes a Domination mode centered on destroying an opposing base, customizable mission music and summaries, vessel and mission widgets, player messages through communications, and support for external devices such as DMX, Philips Hue, Z-Wave, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi hardware.
