1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing and Annoying, August 13, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Star Trek: The Game Show (CD-ROM)
What with all the competently made multi-player trivia games on the market, it was inevitible that Star Trek would eventually check in with one. Unfortunately, the questions aren't all that challenging, the hosts (Q and a female counterpart) and the general game mechanics leave much to be desired. The Q's dialogue is almost instantly annoying and it takes up more time than the actual game.

Once in the game, even though a Trek fan will know most of the answers, it's not that easy to give them. It's multiple choice, but you have two second after you ring in to hit the right key. The problem is, the keys aren't the numbers, as in You Don't Know Jack", but letters, so you not only have to know the answer, you also have to hunt down the right letter before your time is up.

Even if you're a fan of Trek and trivia, you might want to pass on this one.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor game, buggy, poor execution., March 8, 2006

This review is from: Star Trek: The Game Show (CD-ROM)
The game is hard to get to run on a PC. I once had it running on my Win 3.1 system and maybe my Win98 system although I can't get it running on either 98 or ME now. When I did have it running a major problem with the game was the inclusiveness of it. I am a hard core Star Trek fan but since I never got into Voyager I get killed playing the game. There's no way to restrict the subjects to just TOS, Next Gen, DS9, and Movies. Often questions require you to SPELL the answers even though they were never spelled out when broadcast. Often you know the answer but how to respond is ambiguous.

3.0 out of 5 stars Star Trek: The Game Show CD-ROM, June 13, 2000

"cstutz" (Calgary, Alberta) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Star Trek: The Game Show (CD-ROM)
This game has a variety of trivia that spans all of the series and the movies. Q's comments tend to get a little old as he says the same things over and over again. Also it doesn't take long before the questions start to be repeated. Over all it is a fun game for the first little while, but you need to be a hard core Star Trek fan to put up with the repeation.
