    Artemis: Spaceship Bridge Simulator is a multiplayer co-operative spaceship simulation game created by Thomas Robertson[1] for Windows, iOS, and Android devices.[2] The game is designed to be played between three and six local players,[3] with each player using a separate computer that provides a different spaceship bridge station, such as helm control or engineering.[4] It is possible for up to eight crews to play Artemis either cooperatively or PvP. The game contains a number of built-in missions for your crew(s) to enjoy, but there is also capabilities for mission scripting if you want something more complicated. There is a fairly large scripting and modding community who share their work with all Artemis players. While Artemis was designed to be played locally, there are multiple groups who play online using TeamSpeak 3 or Discord for communication, including Artemis: Eastern Front, the Terran Stellar Navy, and the United Stellar Navy. If you can't find enough people for your own crew, you'll be welcomed by any of these groups!


    Artemis Armada

    Artemis Armada is the annual Artemis: Spaceship Bridge Simulator convention. It is held in Cleveland, OH each spring and consists of dozens of custom-built bridges. There are regularly scheduled missions executed by all of the crews, and Canonical Battles completed (or failed) by a single crew or two crews working cooperatively.
