Reception
Initial reviews were favorable with IGN describing the Wii version as "an interesting game to say the least" and giving it a score of 6.8, but noting that the Wii pricetag means that "only hardcore Trekkies and hardcore strategy fans need apply".
Most reactions though, have been strongly negative, with a 54 Metacritic rating (PS2)". The out-of-character actions of Starfleet " punches gatling-phaser holes in purist Trekdom all over the place" and is seen as "an offensively bad use of a cherished license".

First he sends a dispatch about Danzig and how 10,000 German tourists are pouring into the city every day with butterfly nets in their hands and submachine guns in their knapsacks.

“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
