To take part, you have to comment on which Star Trek games you grew up with and which one was your favourite. The 10 winners will be randomly selected and contacted by me. The giveaway will run until 21st December 23:59 CET.

I got ST: 25th Anniversary when I was a kid but I never got far. I remember the space combat to be ridiculously difficult. Maybe I have to revisit it. Next up was Starfleet Academy. That really hit the right spot and I spent hours upon hours in the simulator. In that vein, Bridge Commander also hit the right spot for me. Man was that great. Honorable mention goes out to Elite Force.

I didn't actually get any Star Trek games until I was older. Have since enjoyed a few including Star Trek: Armada II, and Voyager: Elite Force. Have also had fun watching a playthrough of Star Trek: The Next Generation - A Final Unity.

I fondly remember playing Elite Force when I was young. I still remember the opening Borg level which simultaneously impressed and scared me, haha. Also those aliens that looked like manta rays were a funny and cheesy concept.
Come to think of it, I should play Elite Force 2.

[โ€“] PlasmaDistortion@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

I have only played Star Trek: Bridge Crew before, and I loved it and want to play more Star Trek games! Over the genre is great and the potential is endless.

[โ€“] AbsoluteChicagoDog@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

I have never actually played any Star Trek games, this will be my first

[โ€“] philoneous@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Elite Force ftw!

[โ€“] Tedrick02@lemmy.today 2 points 11 months ago

Unsure why I haven't tried more games but I grew up with Star Trek:The Next Generation

[โ€“] Badnews@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Not played any of them before, but this looks great to jump in with.

[โ€“] emile@tacobu.de 2 points 11 months ago

Grew up with Elite Force I + II, and later Star Trek Online. The latter was my favourite, spent lots of hours there.

[โ€“] TheDubh@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Star Trek: Away Team was fun kind of xcom type game. Which I still enjoy those games.

Star Trek: Armada like others. Mainly because of my love of RTS and trek.

Star Trek: Legacy Iโ€™ve always enjoyed strategy games. Im fairly sure it was this game where I had a bug or Easter egg. Trying to beam up Thomas Riker in the middle of a fight I had two ships lock on. In the end I ended up with two of him, which felt kind of fitting so never could tell if Easter egg or not.

There was one online texted I think java based game online in 95/96, where you can control a ship and could meet other players. I was really really bad that.

Also a โ€œStar Trekโ€ game that Iโ€™m fairly sure was a rip off of EGA Star Trek that came in one of those bundle boxes that were like 30 games for $10 on cd.

I already have and have finished the game so I will recuse myself from the giveaway, but my first Trek game was the unofficial, DOS based, EGA Trek.

After that, it was A Final Unity.

Grew up with birth of the federation and armada. My favorite was birth of the federation. Wish an updated version of it was released.

[โ€“] RalphFurley@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Star Trek Armada was dope as hell!

[โ€“] gregorum@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

Star Trek elite force 1 and 2 were favorites of mine

[โ€“] jackie_jormp_jomp@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I played an Interplay star Trek point and click game as a kid that I was terrible at, but really enjoyed. Also Elite Forces was FANTASTIC

[โ€“] Maho@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 11 months ago

My first one was Star Trek TNG: Advanced Holodeck Tutorial for Game Gear. I wasn't really a trekkie back then (had watched a few of the TOS movies with my dad and liked them but didn't really care much about Star Trek until around the 30th anniversary I think). I remember thinking the game's enterprise design was dumb and wanted the stylized one from the movies back (and Kirk and Spock and Scotty instead of these "random stand-ins" :P)

And I think my favorite one was a heavily modded Bridge Commander. I didn't really play much of the actual game (or "the campaign" as kids call it today) but spent probably around 100 hours playing custom scenarios, battles from the movies and shows.

[โ€“] bestnerd@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Academy and Command were my favorite. I just bought all the old games on gog and canโ€™t wait to relive it.

My first game after discovering Star Trek, was Star Trek Online. Happy holidays everyone!! ๐Ÿ––

Oh god, I remember my 20s; seeing in the new millennium and beyond playing Episode 1 Racer for days with my mate John on his Playstation ;)
