Star Trek: Academy - The Movie

Almost twenty years - and I had no clue that this was out there.

Glued together from the cutscenes of that old gem of a game from 1997 - over two hours! For some reason, that opening adress by Kirk always has impressed me. I never have seen much more of that game anyway, I did not had the means to run it when it was actual. But that openign scene I have seen many times.

Just never the rest of those two hours.

Damn... David Forester and his gang! Plus Klingon Academy story, now that's something great!

ST academy game...you know, I only got the game when I went to Sweden to in the exchange program that my high school had. Only in a PC game store in Stockholm I found that game (here was non existence); I had money for more ST games and saw them, but only took that one.

When the games had actors playing roles and a story, great times...

The game was ridiculously hard even on easy.

The cheesy acting actually added to it. I don't know but real actors actually make cut scenes even better in my opinion and you had the feeling of really talking to Kirk, Chekov and co.

However the game had a short coming IMHO as the combat was more like wing commander rather than Star Trek like.

Wow, I never knew that existed. Pretty impressive production.

Actually it's two games: Star Fleet Academy and Klingon Academy.

Did you do the last mission with the Enterprise?

Indeed I did and never truly understood how it worked reliably. Sometimes I got attacked by the Klingons and sometimes not...

As if Plummer as Chang wasn't awesome enough, Warner arrives as Gorkon.
