Command your own starship in Star Trek: Bridge Crew
Star Trek: Bridge Crew is a VR space exploration and combat simulator. You play as part of a crew of up to four officers aboard a Federation starship. Players take over the tactical, helm, engineering and command chairs and carry out a range of different missions, ranging from infiltration to combat to scientific research.
Taking command
Star Trek: Bridge Crew is a relatively simple game. Each player occupies a station on the ship’s bridge and controls their functions using a virtual touch screen (a motion controller is required for this). In order for the starship to function, the crew must work together; for instance, the tactical officer conducts scans to help the helmsman navigate while the engineer provides power for the ship’s other functions. Communication occurs via integral voice chat. Most of the game’s missions are simple stealth, combat or exploration missions, and most last for about half an hour. Gameplay is relatively simple, at least once you get the hang of the control panels. The bridge setting is lovingly recreated, detailed enough to please hardcore show fans.
