Screenshot: ParamountVoyager is a weird show for shore leave—the crew is exploring a previously unknown quadrant of space and trying to get home, so they can’t really just kick their feet up and relax on a nice planet somewhere. Instead, the series gave its crew digital hideways in the form of several holodeck programs throughout the show. Early on we had Chez Sandrine, a French pool bar, and we eventually got Neelix’s take on the Paxau Resort, a tropical hotel. But perhaps the most infamous and fun of all is the short…

Sure, relationship drama—but check those cute Starfleet-issue pillowcases!Image: ParamountAny good episodic TV series knows how to deal with often dramatic tone shifts that, in our era of heavily serialized programming, might seem tone-deaf or jarring. Star Trek, of course, is no exception to this having been episodic for so much of its 50+ year history—some weeks you fight god, some weeks the holodeck’s Moriarty replica is trying to gain sentience and break free.

The Star Trek television world consists of eleven full and distinct television series released across the decades, going all the way back to the mid-1960s. While some of the older sets and effects are certainly dated, some of the issues the shows grappled with back in the day are as relevant now as they were almost 60 years ago.

“Slicing enemies in Trek to Yomi can be worked down to a science, but its story and the development of its main character are what made me want to see the game through to its end.” Pros Surprisingly moving story Gorgeous visuals Detailed animations Cons Stale combat mechanics Disappointing boss fights…
