Star Trek

About

Star Trek by Lazzarosoft is a text-driven strategy game set in outer space. Players command a starship, making tactical decisions during missions that involve resource management, enemy encounters, and exploration. The game blends adventure elements with strategic gameplay, requiring players to solve problems through dialogue and command inputs rather than traditional combat. Single player only, it runs on the MSX platform with a focus on narrative and decision-making. The game features characters linked to a well-known sci-fi franchise, adding familiar context to its missions. Released in late 1987, it’s sometimes noted for its clever use of text parsing and turn-based mechanics. While not widely reviewed, it holds a small but dedicated following among retro gaming circles. Some players highlight its difficulty and the need for precise typing, which can feel both frustrating and rewarding.
