Starflight is one of the first sandbox space exploration role-playing and simulation games; it was developed by Binary Systems and published by Electronic Arts originally for MS-DOS in 1986. It was ported to the Amiga and Commodore 64 in 1989, while the Atari ST and Macintosh versions were released in 1990. An improved SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive version was created in 1991. The game received excellent reviews from both contemporary and modern critics.
The game's goals include exploration, collection of lifeforms and minerals, and finding habitable colony worlds. The game is entirely non-linear, and the player will have to begin assembling a crew and preparing the spaceship before he can leave the spacedock and start the adventure.
