Product Description
Star Trek: New Worlds lets the player colonize, mine resources, research, and defend and protect the frontier and it's colonists, resulting in an unequaled, up-close and personal gaming experience.
Amazon.com Product Description
Star Trek: New Worlds presents the Star Trek universe as never seen before. Set in the 23rd century--the year 2292--the game chronicles the challenges and adventures of a small group of colonial officers on the surfaces of new alien worlds. Choosing to play as the Federation, Klingons, or the Romulans, the player must meet a series of challenges that take the form of mission objectives. These contain primary, secondary, and even tertiary objectives. The main mission objective must be met to complete the mission, while the secondary and tertiary objectives enable the player to finish the mission with a higher score and rank. Playing as a different race not only provides a new complement of buildings and vehicles, all with their own graphical styles, but also allows the player to experience a new style of gameplay. The Federation players must act in accordance with StarFleet protocol, and their actions must conform to certain ethical constraints. The Klingon player, however, can enjoy a much more aggressive lifestyle but is still bound by Klingon "honor" codes. For example, shooting down an unarmed shuttle ferrying civilians provides the warrior with no honor and will bring shame on the family name. The Romulans provide the player with a wild-card style of play. As long as mission objectives are met, they are free--to a certain extent--to act as they see fit.

 The coolest game ever October 16, 2000
Lesley J Cox (Arnold, CA United States)
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
When I got the demo CD with this game on it i rushed to my computer to try it out. I tried it out and I immediately fell in love with it. It is a combination of StarCraft (one of my all-time favorites) and StarTrek. The weapon effects and explosions are exquisite and all the units are so cool. But there is one setback to the game. There is no in-game options menu, and therefore you can't save it in-game. That is one thing I would like to change. Other than that, it is the coolest RTS game I have ever seen.
A true experience in colonization December 28, 2000

I can appreciate the reviewers who have given this game a low, or negative, star-rating. They must have made their purchase on the misguided assumption that Star Trek games are created for electronic hedonists in pursuit of yet another distraction from the cruel world outside. Such has never been the case. Those disaffected gamers would do well to remember that to enjoy a true Trek experience in the context of New Worlds, they must avail themselves of the unique opportunity it presents to experience (in plodding real-time, no less) one of the more accurate virtual depictions of the hardships of pioneering class-M planets in uncharted space. Like actual soldiers on an expedition of conquest - which will read as "non-interference" to all the brainwashed Federation apologists - STNW forces us to stumble around in the dark as gutsy adventurers embracing the peril of an unknown land. Armchair Indiana Jones types seeking to douse that flaming passion to actually go outside and feel the rigors of an unforgiving ecosystem would do well to spend hours in this game, figuring out how to best navigate its puzzling user-hostile interface, whilst trying to avoid being consumed by the game's most dangerous elements: boredom, fatigue, and atrophy brought on by the mind-numbing stupor of trying to challenge the left brain in a place as predictable as a hundred miles of Texas Interstate highway . . . Watch out for the armadillo!
A Real Strategical Situation,Depends on your Politics December 5, 2003

New Worlds is a not an ordinary game this game is a game created for Real Strategy on a ground,and the player stands as a officer of each one of these Star Empires,New Worlds game is about the importance of a star system named Tabula Rasa Anomalies,this system has been appeared because of a Romulan Test,that put the whole region on the map(of all star Empires known to eachother)
there is no good or bad in this Game,and if u stand and fight is for the good of your goverment,this region has a very strategical importance for all 3 star empires,first we must know that these anomalies appeared in the Neutral zon,M-Class Planets,new Races,and the rich Dilithium Planets that are far richer than a ordinary dilithium planet are the reasons of its importance,of course all the goverments are on the rush to have these systems,the Federation and Romulan Star Empire,look at this situation as a oppertunity to uphold their strength,but due to the loss of Praxis(Klingon Moon)the klingons look at the sitiuation as a golden oppertunity to escape the peace treaty
that is going to be negotiated with the federation,and uphold the honor and strength of their Empire,
This Game was Created in 1999 and due to that time here are the ratings i give to it,
Graphics 9/10
Story 10/10
Sound and Music 10/10
Gameplay Control 8/10
Overall:9/10
You have the oppertunity to play as each of the Goverments and
help the goverments to hold the upper hand in Economy and Border Strength(dont forget the neutral zone),and also this game is a very deep game,and you cant win too soon,it will take a lot of time for every misson,and a you need to have a real strategy and plan for this game,you also get promotion after having success in several missons,and if you really are a man of strategy go and have it.
i hope success for you Lieutenant Commander
