StarForge
Players pilot spacecraft through the solar system and beyond, building and upgrading their ship, landing on planets to conduct experiments, establishing colonies, and answering astronomy challenges to unlock new regions of space. Real orbital mechanics, scientifically accurate planet conditions, and simulated space phenomena make this the only gamified space adventure RPG on iOS.
Meet your mentor
Every Spark & Anvil app has a friendly mentor character that demonstrates, praises, and patiently scaffolds learning. On-device AI personalizes the mentor's responses to your kid's progress — never connecting to a server, never collecting data.
#29B6F6 StarForge is a space exploration adventure where you pilot your own spacecraft through the solar system. Land on planets, conduct science experiments, and answer astronomy challenges to unlock new regions of space. The entire solar system is waiting for you to explore!
Distributed-narrative cast
Meet the cast
StarForge's concept centers on stellar astronomy — stellar classification, HR diagram, stellar life cycles, observational astronomy.

What's inside
Space Navigation
Pilot your spacecraft through the solar system. Visit planets, moons, asteroids, and space stations. Each destination has unique missions and discoveries waitin
Surface Exploration
Land on planets and moons to explore their surfaces. Collect rock samples, study the atmosphere, and observe geological features. Each world is different and fu
Science Experiments
Conduct real astronomy experiments at each location. Measure gravity, analyze soil samples, study star spectra, and more. Your results help you understand how t
Astronomy Challenges
Answer questions about space, planets, and the universe to earn fuel and unlock new destinations. The more you learn, the further you can travel.
Mentored by Orbit — on-device AI, no data leaves the device.
How StarForge handles your kid's data
- ✅ All progress, settings, and AI-generated content stays on the device
- ✅ No analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs
- ✅ No ads, no in-app purchases — you pay once
