There are several scenes that you MUST select 'incorrectly' first and learn from the result so that you can move on correctly when you get to 'replay' the scene.
You will actually have to be assimilated by the Borg several times these are the best parts of the movie before the successful completion of the game. You also have a magic tricorder a Star Trek scanning device that "Q" gives you. With it, you can pause the action at any moment and point the tricorder at nearly any person or object in the video.
You get a full readout complete with picture, text, and sarcastic voice-over by "Q". In fact, "Q" is really the glue that holds this little adventure together. He has noticeably aged for an omnipotent being , yet he mainains his patented charm and charisma despite the receding hairline.
The ability to replay scenes only makes sense if "Q" is there to bend time for you. Star Trek has never been known to take the physical laws of the universe too seriously, and "Q" provides the perfect excuse to play it fast and loose once again. However, there are a few flaws in the game you knew I was coming to that. First, some of the 'decision points' require you to enter codes on panels or manipulate items like a 'hypospray'. But these panels and objects are completely unresponsive.
Did it register when you clicked on the '3'? You'll never know until you watch the video, and even then you may be unsure. The game itself is a little too short. With no real replay value, you just don't get a lot of time for your money. If it takes you longer than that to solve the game, you may become frustrated by the fact that you cannot fast-forward or skip the video. If you're stuck on a puzzle, you get to see that video clip over and over again until you get it right.
Star Trek: Borg is basically a very well made 'choose your own adventure' video. The magic tricorder also gives it enough depth to get rid of some of the linearity. Star Trek fans who would give anything to see just one more episode: this is the game for you!
It also includes the 'Picard Dossier', an interactive guide to the Borg for the die-hard trekkie. But, by its nature, this game is going to have limited appeal. People unfamiliar with Star Trek probably won't enjoy it, but then, people unfamiliar with Star Trek probably aren't reading this review either. Oh yeah, and don't forget to keep an extra phaser in your sock. The game moves at a pace that is both slow and fast alike.
With the strategy game aspect, you'll sit around a bit and search the area while you build ships and star bases, an aspect that might not appeal to gamers who love non-stop action. However, the game is fast paced in that each mission does not last incredibly long and the transition between missions is exciting.
For players not interested in the Star Trek series, the game probably won't shine any new light to draw them in. It follows much of the same rules and laws of the series and movies and offers new aspects never seen before while still maintaining the same traditions. In summary, Star Trek: Armada is a game that keeps your pulse moving and your mind working as well. Both the action and strategy does justice to the Star Trek story and offers a new perspective to anyone who's kept up with the show throughout the years.
For Star Trek fans, the game is a necessity. Graphics: The starships look very much like the images generated in the television show or movies and all the colors are very vivid. The animated movies almost look like the real characters but could have been done better. Sound: All the Star Trek: The Next Generation actors lent their voices to the making of the game -- an excellent feature.
Also, the music is well done and makes the game more suspenseful. Enjoyment: Star Trek: Armada is very interesting, challenging and fun to play.
The strategy aspect of the game is great for relaxing and the action is great. The movies are also fun to watch between missions. Replay Value: The multi-player feature always makes the game fresh, as you can choose between four races to control and who to join with in online action. What institution of higher education has the longest waiting list in the galaxy?
Every Trekker knows its Starfleet Academy! You command a Holodeck sim of the il.
