Set phasers to stun.

<span class="bold">Star Trek: 25th Anniversary</span>, a smash-hit action/adventure, premieres digitally, DRM-free on GOG.com!

Become Captain Kirk. <span class="bold">Star Trek: 25th Anniversary</span> wasn't the first Star Trek game out there, but it was one of the most critically acclaimed and successful ones ever released. Based on the 1960's TV series, we get the chance to relive the adventures of Captain Kirk, Spock, and the entire crew of the Starship Enterprise. You're on a peaceful mission - the best players will avoid violence and conflict - but it doesn't mean that peril does not await at every turn. You'll get the chance to engage in orbital space battles, and lead your landing party to safety and resolution through thick and thin in a classical point-and-click adventure. Beware, the redshirt cliche is just one misstep away.

Trekkie or not, <span class="bold">Star Trek: 25th Anniversary</span> is your chance to play a piece of pop-culture history. Get it now, a digital premiere, DRM-free on GOG.com!

Wow, I remember this game. I never thought I would see it again. :O

I don't know how you did it, but bravo!

Wow... weren't Star Trek games supposed to be in an eternal legal limbo or something?

What next, Mechwarrior series and all Dune & Lord of the Rings games?

GOG pulled off the impossible. A press release someone linked to in another thread suggests that they found a way to reach an agreement with both Interplay and CBS to re-license the games for release:

"GOG.com and Interplay Entertainment Corp., under license by CBS Consumer Products, will beam in Star Trek to DRM-free computers worldwide."

It probably helped that Interplay is pretty much un-dead and likely didn't ask for much for their piece of the sales. At this point in time, I think they'd pretty much take anything if it would increase their revenue even the littlest bit.

Just got this installed.
The voice and sound is top quality and the manual is a great scan.
This'll be fun. :-)

Great job GOG. :-)

Normally I wait for discounts...but I was always under the impression that the Trek games are entrapped within some kind of legal hell. Going ahead and buying now, just in case!

Oh, my, Gog.

Thank you!

Wasn't star trek one of those hard to get things? A new publisher or something of the sort?

Then again, I know next to nothing about Star Trek.

I never thought I would see this game ever again.

Instabuy!

Not new publisher, but just licenses being pesky and the like. GOG had to cooperate with both Interplay and CBS to rerelease the games.

yes a job well done...

i have the paper rites manual, but i seem to have misplaced the 25th anniv manual, l hope i didnt throw it away during cleanup.

.......... found a bunch of manuals seems the 25th anniv is not present so unless its in the last plastic storage box i need to search through, it gone, i think i lost that.

I actually found the 3D one (Emperor: Battle for Dune?) the best one, IIRC.

I haven't played the first Dune game much. I have the CD version, but I the gameplay never grasped me for some reason. One of the games I've been supposed to give a fair chance again.
