From the cover

"Space…the final frontier,

These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise.

Its five-year mission: to explore strange new

worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations,

to boldly go where no man has gone before."

While controlling the actions of his character, the player leads him through one adventure after another, facing new challenges and unknown dangers. Each game is an ever-changing story as players solve near-impossible puzzles, complete dangerous missions, or simply battle to survive.
