When I bought this , I had no idea that it was a big portion of the ex Telltale team but it didn't take me long to see their finger prints all over this game.
It's an engaging well written story like all of Telltale games and it's certainly a good game but it sadly lacks the polish of Telltales work and has some slight issues that can cause major irritation that would of been solved with a bit more play testings.
Let's start with the bad bits.
1. This game has some serious lighting issues that make finding things quite challenging , I don't know if this is because I'm playing this on an Xbox one instead of my Xbox S but sometimes you can die in the game because you standing in the wrong spot and the light doesn't seem to go activated , who knows but it's a major irritations.
2. There can sometimes be a stuttering delay with dialogue it only lasts for about 2 seconds but it's frustrating.
3 Occasionally clue don't appear in your recorder , close it and the clues are back.
4. The graphics can sometimes seem quite low resolution in parts.
The Good Bits 1. The voice acting is as polished as you would expect.
2. The script feels very Star Trek.
3. You can still buy this game on disc, something that is becoming more challenging as time goes by.
4. It's feels very much a Star Trek game , use the phaser, fly a runabout ( even though it's on rails) and use a tricorder.
5. The characters really do feel like they were designed for Star Trek , it feels the right side of cheesy to be great entertainment.
Summary It's a good game that so easily could of been a great game with just a bit more polish , the only thing I wonder is, are the graphics better on a later console and does the sound stutter.
To put simply , it's a 7 but with just a modicum of play testing would of easily been an 8.
