   This is another Trek game I have had for many years, in fact, it was the first Trek game I ever played back in the early 90’s. This is another must have for fans of this series. It is third person as you control all of your favorite characters as you take a group of four, including you, down to planets and different ships to rescue people and investigate mysteries. You also have to fight Ferengi/Romulan and other alien ships on occasion aboard the Enterprise.There are three ways you can lose on the game

   1. If your ship is ruined during a battle with another ship
   
   2. All of your crewmen die
   
   3. If Picard is killed, if he dies and the rest of the crew is fine, you still lose. So I recommend to not use Picard until it’s your last resort or if you know it is safe for him to beam down.

   The game plays like an RPG, because you choose your dialogue of how to respond to those you talk to. A fight to the death can start or be avoided by the things you say. The storyline is honestly fascinating and plays like an episode of TNG.

   The look of the game is your typical Genesis look, which isn’t terrible. When you are on the ship, you are on the Bridge. And may look around by critical left and right. Here you can read the crew and alien bios. And tell Mr. Data to go to Warp to the next destination. When you are on your way to another planet while flying in Warp, you will come in friend on occasion with another ship. This is when the verbal skills I was talking about comes into play.

   Like I said, by and large a very fun game. But it does have a few things that make it drag. There is one level where you have to rescue the miners in a cave, looking for all of them can be time consuming and take sometimes an hour. There is another mission when you have to search a lot of Solar Systems until you find the right Ferengi ship. These two levels can become tedious and irritating, but it doesn’t hurt the by and large fun of the game.

   Hey! You! Want to go where no man’s gone before? You do? Grab this cart! This has many differnt levels of game play–and I don’t mean the kind you beat. Not only do you get to glide owing to space shooting proton torpeados, you also get to land on planets and blast people with phasers! Yay! It’s a far weep from your traditional platformer, don’t be worried to play it! We won’t tell!
