3.0 out of 5 stars
The Starfleet Strategy Guide is misnamed., May 10, 1998
This review is from: Starfleet Academy: Exclusive Game Strategy Guide (Paperback)
If you are looking for cheat codes or scenario enhancements this guide is not for you. The book is not really a strategy guide per say,it is more of a walk through guide of the missions. It gives information on each simulation you go through with a few strategy tips as how to stay alive a little longer. Some are more common sense than strategy, such as do flybys on enemies when attacking to stay out of their firing arcs. The areas it totally ignores are the extensive video sequences where you interact with the other actors through multiple choice responses. You may not think this would be a major point, but the way you answer in the game can make the difference in how well respected by your crew and the command staff you will be.This is intergral as to your scores as the completing of the simulations successfully. Needless to say as strategy guides go I'd have to rate this one as mediocre at best.
