The learning curve for BOTF was steep, and this was in a time when there was no YouTube to find a tutorial on.
That’s a shame too, because not only could computers better handle massive and detail oriented games, but because of advances in AI the games could be much more challenging and become more Trek like.īirth of the Federation was a wonderful game, but it was very detail heavy and that of course scared off many casual players. Since BOTF there has been a serious lack of Star Trek strategy games. The Star Trek: Armada series and my favorite Star Trek: Birth of the Federation.
Star Trek has of course had strategy games in the past.
