Description
Explore strange new worlds. Go where no one has gone before!
Are you a fan of Star Trek or No Man's Sky? What would you do if you had your own starship? Where would you go?
Explore a huge persistent galaxy of one million stars and almost 6 million planets (5,999,792 to be exact). The galaxy is split up into 125 quadrants with each quadrant split into 729 sectors. There's a lot to explore.
Claim stars and planets and make them yours forever. Other starship captains will also see stars and planets that you claim and you will see theirs.
Full 3D universe - fly to any star/planet you see in your view and claim/explore it.
Your mission, as starship captain, is to locate ETI (extraterrestrial intelligence) signals in deep space. Galactic Command has detected the signals and will supply you with quadrant and sector coordinates, but it is up to you to scan the planets and locate the source of the signals.
Each of the one million stars is a unique solar system with a random number of planets and maybe a starbase. Each planet is unique and you can fly your starship down through the planet atmosphere and even land on the planets.
Collect beacons on the planet surface for points/credits/fuel/minerals. Collect all beacons on a planet for an extra reward. Sell your habitable planet discoveries and collected minerals for credits at any starbase. Use credits to upgrade your ship.
Refuel your ship and recharge your life support system by visiting starbases. Just fly to one of the green cubes around the starbase to dock with it.
Land on planets! Your starship will convert to a hovercraft where you can explore the planet surface and collect PODS for big points/fuel/minerals.
Discover alien structures on habitable planets.
Build bases on the planets. Bases are saved on the backend server so others can see and use them as well. Planet bases act just like starbases - you can sell resources and upgrade your ship when you dock with one.
This is a game of exploration and discovery, not combat.
Inspired by No Man's Sky, explore a massive persistent procedurally generated universe with a huge number of unique planets on your mobile device.
Device with A12 or higher recommended.

What’s New
Version 3.9
Minor update
Planet pods and planet beacons no longer give fuel. You can only re-fuel your ship at a star base or planet base. The reason for this change is that star bases and planet bases were mostly not necessary because collecting planet pods and beacons meant you never had to re-fuel your ship.
Ratings and Reviews
A welcome blast from the past
This game is a much needed addition to an App Store that is filled with pay to win games. Graphics wise this game isn’t much at all but it reminds me of the old school mobile games such as the now delisted Standard Definition version of Galaxy On Fire 2 or of one of the old ROTOS F/A-18 flight sim games that I used to play on my first generation iPad. There doesn’t seem to be much to do in terms of gameplay and the only thing you can do is go exploring which isn’t a bad thing at all. The game does lack many of the features of it’s console and PC counterparts (No Man’s Sky and Elite Dangerous) such as NPC ships that fly around in populated systems and the ability to go exploring on foot. Despite these shortcomings it’s obvious that this game is essentially Candy Crush for nerds but without all of the problems that that terrible P2W game has and yes this doesn’t have any micro transactions or lootboxes! TAKE THAT ACTIVISION/BLIZZARD!!!!! NOTE: The game no longer runs on 2 GB devices
Nice
Finally a game geared towards exploration vice conquering. This game has great potential. Just wish getting from on system to the next was a lot faster and that the ship remained where it at when I logged off. The planet detail is pretty decent. Cant wait to locate a habitable planet.
Super Starship 3
Disregard the negative reviews. This game is pretty unique and awesome if you enjoy playing space exploration games. If you enjoy exploring on Elite Dangerous on your PC you will love Super Starship 3 on your mobile. All of the mechanics are very similar.
Travel across the galaxy, explore star systems, land on planets, collect materials and search for anomalies. No combat or threats. Simple exploration for those that enjoy this type of simulation. Travel times between stars and planets along with atmospheric landings make it feel more like realistic simulator than an arcade game.
This game could definitely use a Wiki if someone took the time to publish one. I would also encourage the developer to continue upgrading this because I haven’t seen anything else like it.
Super Starship 3 is one of the better space simulators out there. It should be highlighted on the App Store for those who enjoy these types of casual games.
