About Prospector
Prospector is a roguelike game set in a science fiction universe. The general goal of the game is to amass a large amount of money and retire.

Their goal is to explore the unknown systems and bring back valuable minerals, alien artifacts, and biodata... without being killed by hostile lifeforms, space pirates, harsh planet conditions, interstellar gas clouds, running out of oxygen, and the many other dangers of the sector.
