- Point and click adventure game based on the original Star Trek series that celebrates its 25th anniversary. The player controls Captain Kirk during 7 short adventures presented as the lost fourth season of the 1960s show. Most characters from the show are present here (primarily Kirk, Spock and Bones, while others get cameos) and in the CD version voiced by the original actors from the show. In the first story, "Demon World", Kirk and his crew investigate reports of demons attacking settlers, who are all members of a religious sect that lives on an uninhabited world. In the second adventure, "Hijacked", Kirk and his crew must save the crew of USS Masada, who are being held hostage by Elasi Pirates. In the third story, "Love's Labor Jeopardized", a research station in the Neutral Zone that has developed Oroborus, a virus deadly to Romulans and Vulcans, is attacked and destroyed by two Romulan ships. This not only breaks the truce between the Romulans and the Federation, but also allows the virus to spread into the atmosphere. Spock ends up being infected, so Dr. McCoy must try to save him and Kirk must attempt to restore the peace again. In the fourth tale, "Another Fine Mess", the Enterprise receives a distress call from a ship under attack by pirates. It turns out that the call was sent by Harry Mudd, a popular incompetent shady character from the show. He's found a mysterious alien vessel that Kirk and his crew decide to explore in order to discover why Harry and the pirates want it. In the fifth episode, "Feathered Serpent", the Enterprise runs into a Klingon battle fleet that's pursuing a supposed war criminal. The man turns out to be the Aztec god, Quetzalcoatl, or more precisely an alien who tried to bring a message of peace to humans, but the Aztecs turned it upside down. Quetzalcoatl tests Kirk and his crew to make sure they understand peace. Kirk also discovers the reason why the Klingons want him. Klingon Admiral Vlict had deemed his message of non-violence dangerous to the Klingon order. In the sixth episode, "That Old Devil Moon", the Enterprise investigates Scythe, the moon of the pre-warp planet Proxtrey. The planet suffered through a nuclear war ages ago and the generations of descendants of the people who bombed themselves into Stone Age have finally managed to build an industrial society again. However, the automated computers and nuclear silos on Scythe survived the war and are about to relaunch it, unaware that their war is ancient history. Kirk and his crew must stop the launch and also avoid outing themselves as aliens to the people on the planet. In the final story, "Vengeance", The Enterprise receives a distress call from the USS Republic, but finds the ship almost destroyed. However, the only survivor on board, Kirk's old classmate, claims that it was the Enterprise that attacked them. It turns out that Kirk's visitation to planet Vardaine, and his righteous actions there, had unforeseen consequences. This episode is longer on the CD version. Once the CD version of the game is beaten, William Shatner gives a short tribute to Star Trek's creator Gene Roddenberry in voice-over form, since Gene died around the time the game was released. In most episodes, the player's wrong decision can cause the death of a one or two anonymous members of Kirk's security team, popularly known as "Redshirts". Most episodes also feature short space dogfights, when the cursor changes into a crosshair and the attacking enemy ships show up on the main screen of the Enterprise's bridge. Kirk has several dialogue options in most episodes and these often determine the course of the story, since several of them have two or three endings. The coordinates that the player needs to type in to travel from one planet to another serve as game's copy-protection system. At the end of each mission, the player (Kirk) receives performance evaluation and points. High scores bring symbolic prizes and low scores bring demotions.
