The result is a 3D starship combat game that included video of equal quality to the movie. It developed Commander Chang and put you in the shoes of the Klingons instead of the Federation for once. Star Trek Klingon Academy took Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and ran with it. It also integrated all our Star Trek favorites into the mix. This game was huge and included the usual shipbuilding, tech, diplomacy, resource management and more. Long before Stellaris brought us huge universes and made us try to control it all, Star Trek The Next Generation Birth of the Federation had us doing it all in the Alpha Quadrant.
STAR TREK GAMES COMPUTER PC
Star Trek The Next Generation Birth of the Federation – 1999 PC To my mind it was one of the first games that continued to live on thanks to community dedication.
STAR TREK GAMES COMPUTER MODS
Not only was this a great game, it launched a community and hundreds of mods that kept the game going far longer than anticipated.
It’s a ship-based game where you play solo or multiplayer and is still one of my favorite Star Trek games to date.

This is a third person action game with RPG elements.
STAR TREK GAMES COMPUTER SERIES
Star Trek Deep Space Nine The Fallen takes on another series that didn’t do quite as well as it should have done.
Star Trek Deep Space Nine The Fallen – 2000 PC/Mac Highlights include the great writing and voiceovers from both Patrick Stewart and Brent Spiner as their respective characters. You captain the USS Dauntless and have to investigate the explosion of a nearby sun and solve an issue with the Cardassians. Until Star Trek Bridge Crew arrives, Star Trek Bridge Commander is the closest you will ever be to sitting in the captain’s chair on the Enterprise. It was intriguing, well written and a serious time sink. It’s a point and click RPG where you play as Captain Picard who is tasked with investigating some goings on between Romulans and an as-yet unmet species. It was a credible Next Generation game that took a story-driven approach. The catchy title isn’t the only thing to like about Star Trek The Next Generation A Final Unity. Star Trek The Next Generation A Final Unity – 1995 PC/Mac A few cameos and voiceovers from the casts helps build atmosphere too. With solid RPG elements, good character progression and excellent space battles, there is a lot to like about this game. While it wasn’t what we all wanted from an MMO and certainly not from a Star Trek MMO, it wasn’t that bad either.
Whatever your opinion of missed opportunities, Star Trek Online is still going 7 years after launch. While Voyager didn’t get the accolades it deserved, it was still a credible series and this game took the best of that. With good production values, great writing, good graphics, challenging enemies and interesting levels, there is everything here the gamer needs to have a good time.
