Yes, the graphics are dated now. Yes, you have to wrestle your computer into DOS to play it. But this adventure will suck you in.

The story is as rich as (in Insurrection's case, richer than) a TNG film, but much, much longer. Spectrum Holobyte used the medium of the game to tell an extended and detailed story, with nearly countless compelling characters and environments. The many-faceted interface and difficulty controls keeps gamers at any level engaged.

The entire cast of TNG was on board to provide voices, and they breathe life into their stone-faced animated characters. This is a gem from the golden age of PC adventures, and until a Trek adventure at the calibre of "Deus Ex" emerges, it will remain on top. If you're lucky enough to see a copy of it, pick it up without hesitation.

The Game takes place directly after the end of The Next Generation. You command the Enterprise, lead away teams, fight other vessel, and/or solve conflicts by using your diplomatic capabilities. A very good plot that offers multiple options to you leads you threw the game. The Videos and Sounds are great!

It's one of the best games I've ever played, and maybe the best Trek game I've seen. The graphics are wonderful, and the histories are very interesting. I think they have made a great work, and I can't wait for another game with the same playing style (not like Generations) and the same casting, with new and excitng adventures.

I will make this brief:

This is an awesome game! With great voice acting(STAR TREK JUGDMENT RITES was appaling despite acting by the original actors) and a great storyline that was based off of Rome's "plebians" and "patricians".

Rating: 4 stars out of 5 stars. My only complaint was that it kept freezing up on my computer. But I beat the game anyway!

Although the graphics were good for the time, it was just about impossible to get this game to run correctly on any computer I had access to. Either it froze up constantly, the video was choppy, or the sound and voices were out of sync, or any combination of the three.

I never completed the game that I can recall. I slogged through the damaged space station and wildlife preserve planet chapters (the latter of which is horrendously boring) and by that time I was ready to call it quits.

It was interesting that just about every happenstance was scripted for every character, regardless of who you'd chosen for the away missions. A fine attention to detail on the part of the game's creators.

Any twitch-game or FPS fan wouldn't give this game a second glance, and it's really even too slow and tedious for a quest game pro. Good effort, though.
