This is a very good implementation of the standard Startrek game.

Some of the features you might expect are missing - for example, no warp factors or impulse engines. Some features that left something to be desired in the original are kept on, such as the coded long-range scan. Surely the Spectrum's graphics could give a more interesting display?

But the game's good points outweigh any quibbles. The graphics interludes for docking, asteroids storms and time portals (all quite reasonable games in themselves), the combat mode and, in particular, the programmer's slightly sadistic sense of humour made this a very enjoyable game.
