Developers of Star Trek should be taking notes
If you’re the Emperor type who wants to control everything, the turns per cycle can take a long time to complete. Sometimes you want to hand over control of planet to the computer to speed up the game. I only do so when I can no longer build any other structures on the planet as the AI chooses structures which doesn’t help or hinder your civilization . The fleet battles are somewhat average. I find the computer runs away most of the time to avoid getting hurt, only when cornered I find the fleet battles enjoyable to watch.
As a whole this game is above average where its main competitor is Master Of Orion (Better Game play). Still you can enjoy countless hours conquering the Galaxy
