"Space Assassin" is the second Fighting Fantasy book in the science fiction genre, the first being "Starship Traveller". The book places the player on the starship "Vandervecken", where a crazed scientist named Cyrus plans to unleash a hideous experiment upon the player's homeworld.

The player must make their way through the labyrinthine "Vandervecken", overcoming robots, mutants and other science fiction staples until they finally confronts the scientist. If the player manages to defeat him the planet will be saved and the game will end successfully.
