Truth Be Told

Truth be told, this game is terrible. It might sound interesting to design your own star trek ships, but this game doesn't the worst job. There is no action after you design your ships -- that is, you can't really do anything with them. To shorten this up: Don't waste your money on this cheap program.

A Good game if you know how to use it

This may not be a fast pased game. But it is worth the money. I'd say this is a game for any one who can tell conversationly what an inertial dampening system is. This game is a good way to explore teck of Trek. Along wit the diversity of systems is the ability to pock the bridge crew with alot of charecters in the shows or those who are not From Kirk to Samantha Wildman. The missions are a bit slow pased but interact with what systems that you choose. Examle: in one mission you try to convince an ambassador to join the Federation but is claustrapobic and escapes in a shuttle which will make you fail unless you use tractor beams. but the whole inciden is avoided with a holodeck. I for one enjoy it and hope you do to.

This game makes all other Star Trek Games look bad.

I bought this game thinking it would be cool, Design your own ships and take em out for a spin, Not the case! I could do a better job using MS Paint, Major Dispointment! Dont waste your money here, If you looking for a Star Trek game try Starfleet Command, It rocks.

looks are deceiving!

I'm 8 years old and I love Star Trek. It's one of my favorite movies. But this game is REALLY bad. All you do is chose the crew, add onto the ship... then sit around and watch the computer do the rest. To have any fun, I guess you have to know computers really well, and be a programer. But for me, this was a waste of (hard earned) money.

Not Much Fun

= Not the fun it claims to be!
Reviewer: auntyjack from LaVergne, TN USA
As an incurable Trekker who loves all things Star Trek I purchased this game thinking it would be lots of fun to play, but found it extrememly limiting. One has to be quite computer savvy to close applications to get it to work marginally faster than snail pace. Although I have a brand new computer with a great processor, large hard drive and lots of memory and all the 'bells and whistles' I found this game 'eats' so much memory that it takes forever to get your ship across the quadrant. It certainly is a game where you can cook dinner, do the laundry and shop for groceries while your ship and crew fly the 'deep space' mission and still arrive back in time to make the important decisions about where you're going to send the crew next. The 'still' graphics are okay but the 'animation'is pitiful. The one great feature is the sound effects and the Star Trek music. After you've run through all the pre-set missions there's 'nothing new on the horizon'. I'm not into programming so that was the end of the game as I couldn't compose my own missions. I found it was a nighmare trying to 'make' my own crew by importing images and bios and finally gave up in frustration. There's no scope for upgrading your ship beyond the 'default' specifications so some missions are doomed to be failures from the start as not all 'fleet' ships are capable of successfully completing all the missions. Once the missions are complete (flown) there's only one word I can think of to describe this game ... Boring!
