Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing fine and are well prepared for the winter holidays!

We at Dramatic Labs want to sweeten the festive season a little and are therefore giving away a total of 10 copies of Star Trek Resurgence on a platform of your choice (PS4, PS5, Xbox or PC).

Star Trek: Resurgence is a narrative-driven adventure game created by former members of Telltale Games that delivers all the excitement and wonder of the Star Trek universe. Join the crew of the U.S.S. Resolute as first officer Jara Rydek and enlisted engineer Carter Diaz on a mission to prevent an eons-old and powerful force from engulfing everything in its wake!

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.

Star Trek: 25th Anniversary on DOS and Gameboy. DOS version was superior even though my mother threw away the manual in a move. I had to figure out the system locations by randomly going to all of them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I grew up with the Star Trek video game classics like Star Trek: Bridge Commander, Armada 2, Elite Force series, and Away Team. I'd say Bridge Commander is my most favorite of the bunch because it allowed you to be a captain in an actual bridge and the moddable aspects of it was spectacular.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Star trek Armarda comes to mind the most due to playing one match for hours and hours on LAN with my brothers many good memories. Also having another play through of Elite Force 1 and 2 recently was fun 😍 also can't beat a good play of Bridge Commander! Star Trek Resurgence looks amazing nice to see more trek games congrats to the team.

Honestly the first one I remember was the VCR board game! EXPERIENCE BIJ! https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/5258/star-trek-next-generation-interactive-vcr-board-ga

I have played the heck out of ST:Armada and some of Elite Force 1. There was a really bad WII game too, whose name I forgot.

[–] [email protected] 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 I’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 β€œStar Trek” game that I’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.

My favorite Star Trek game of all time was the video board game with the Klingon host. I had everything from the Nightmare games so this was the next logical step and we loved it to even though it was cheesy as all get out.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Wasn't as big ST fan as I'm now, only played, and loved, the Elite Force ones

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

My favorite was Armada with close second Birth of the federation, a very good turn based strategy game. Also played Bridge commander, Elite force 1&2, Armada 2, Starfleet academy, Klingon academy...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Me and the buddies played a bit of Starfleet Command 3 during LAN parties. It would have to be my favorite star trek game, as it was the only one I played.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

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.

[–] simonmicro 2 points 11 months ago

Oh yes, I also played a lot of Star Trek Elite Force back then - I think I liked the first title more, likely because I'm more into VOY. I liked solving the riddles on the levels and trying for hours to find the secrets... What a good time!

My fifth grade teacher would let us play 25th Anniversary if we did well in class. My first intro to Star Trek games!

Then went on to ask for them all. Loved the real life actors in Star Trek Borg (including John de lancie!)

I remember buying Klingon Honor Guard and being so bad at it that I asked my mom to return it, finding out later that the installation worked without the discs (the good old days of PC software). I got much better at FPS and went on enjoy Elite Force, which is probably my favorite.

Also waited with bated breath for the demo of New Worlds but can't remember if I ever got the full game.

Speaking of demos, anyone remember the trailer for the game Secret of Vulcan Fury that was included in front of Interplay games, touting the voices of the original cast? So sad it was never released, considering it was deforest Kelley's last turn as McCoy. I wonder if the original audio tapes still exist and someone could turn it into a game...

Ah, thanks for the memories of the golden age of Star Trek video games!

Elite Force 1&2 on the playstation.

I did however play an unofficial EGA Trek and also Star Trek on the Vectrex.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I loved playing Starfleet Command 1-3 back in the day, and also played Armada and Elite Force recently, though Armada hasn't aged well imo.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

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 ;)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Academy and Command were my favorite. I just bought all the old games on gog and can’t wait to relive it.
