A brand new role-playing, sci-fi game has just landed on Steam’s Early Access platform. The game is a first-person adventure with some light choose-your-own-adventure style options littered throughout the gameplay experience, along with corridor crawling and strategic turn-based combat.

Juggernaut Games recently released a new trailer to celebrate the game’s developmental trek into the Early Access bracket. A brief explanation of what you do and what the game is about is let loose on the YouTube description page, reading…

“You’re a Crawler, and that means you work for those that can pay. Asset recovery, commercial espionage, and mayhem for hire are just a few of your crew’s specialized services. If something shady needs doing, chances are a Crawler will be involved. Succeed and you’ll be rewarded with better pay then any corp drone can dream”

The game appears to be a little like System Shock, Corridor 7 and Myst; there’s a strong focus on exploration, adventure and micromanagement. You can get a glimpse of the game below.

It’s not really my kind of game but gamers looking for something a bit slowed down, strategic, tactical and more in line with point-and-click adventure games – but with a slice of deadly turn-based combat – they’ll definitely want to keep a close cybernetic eye on StarCrawlers.

For those worried about the game’s stay in Early Access, the developers make the following comments about how they plan to go about the Early Access phase, writing…

“StarCrawlers has been in development for over a year and we’re proud of the stability and fun of the current beta experience. The prologue of the main campaign is fully playable alongside infinitely generated side missions. As the beta progress, we will be introducing additional campaign chapters in sequential updates. We’re committed to updating the beta frequently, not only to resolve any issues that crop up for our beta testers but to add lots of new content to explore.”
