Bridge Crew has taken to VR to simulate the bridge, though with live multiplayer interactions, making it a social experience as you work as a team. Since A Final Unity, Star Trek games have returned to primarily focus on ship combat and exploration. In fact, the final puzzle is a Q-worthy morality test - a fitting way to put give the player Picard’s perspective. When it matters, though, it’s pure Star Trek - like the best episodes, resolution comes not with combat, but with thinking like a Starfleet’s finest. Puzzles are a mix of diplomatic conversations and traditional adventure game puzzle solving - as in "which character can manipulate which object to use there." For those new to adventure games, this may induce some frustration, though hint guides and walkthrough can help expedite solutions. With the ability to beam up to the Enterprise at any time, swapping away team crew is easy, giving players the ability to think like a captain planning for the best solution.

For example, Data's android strength may be necessary to overcome an obstacle while Geordi's visor capabilities may detect things a normal tricorder scan will not. Like seminal adventure title Maniac Mansion, each character comes with different abilities. While 25th Anniversary locked you into a crew of Kirk, Spock, McCoy, and literally disposable redshirts, A Final Unity gives you the freedom to create your own TNG away team (depending on your difficulty setting, it can recommend team selection for you). One tangible way A Final Unity is better than 25th Anniversary is its away team selection. A seemingly innocent distress call leads to a mystery regarding an ancient artifact over the course of the next 15 hours, the story twists and turns across multiple planets with franchise hallmarks Vulcans and Romulans alongside a new alien species known as the Chodak, ultimately in pursuit of the reality-bending Unity Device.Īway missions are when the game truly feels like an interactive episode. The cold open, rendered in cutting-edge-for-1995 CG, starts with a captain's log from Patrick Stewart. With a story overseen by Trek veteran Naren Shakar and a staff including Nebula-nominated author Stephen Goldin, A Final Unity plays out like a multi-part episode of TNG, with the eventual universe-at-risk stakes reminiscent of the most effective season finales.

Building upon the formula that worked so well in 25th Anniversary and the console-exclusive TNG adventure game Future's Past, A Final Unity pulled out all the stops in crafting the ultimate interactive 1701-D adventure, complete with full voiceover by the entire cast.

In 1995, Spectrum Holobyte released Star Trek: The Next Generation - A Final Unity. The next release, though, took everything that worked and boldly went (yeah, I said it) to further heights.

This set the stage for a new standard of Trek gaming. Interplay’s Star Trek: 25th Anniversary succeeded where The Rebel Universe failed, allowing for a lengthy interactive adventure that finally allowed players to get in the boots of Kirk, Spock, and McCoy as they worked, explored, and solved problems together. However, it wasn’t until 1992 that design ambition matched technical execution. Simon & Schuster Interactive tried to apply this formula with The Rebel Universe ( now browser playable), which combined strategic ship combat with away team adventures.

During this era, adventure titles by Sierra Online and LucasArts (AKA Lucasfilm Games) dominated PC gaming.
