Star Trek: D-A-C
2009 17 years ago
Star Trek: D-A-C allows fans to directly control a variety of ships and pitch battles between Starfleet and the Romulan Empire. Up to 12 players can compete in thrilling team combat. There are three game play modes - single player, online multiplayer and online co-op. For each mode, there are three different game types - Team DeathMatch, Assault and Conquest. Players can choose from three ship types for each faction, including the newfeatured in the "Star Trek" film. Each ship - the powerful Flagship, the nimble Fighter and the devastating Bomber - offers its own unique capabilities for players to master and manipulate as they fight for victory. In addition to featuring the new U.S.S. Enterprise, Star Trek: D-A-C incorporates music and signature sounds taken directly from the new "Star Trek" film.
What it’s like
Star Trek: D-A-C delivers a fast-paced, arcade-style top-down space shooter experience rooted in the aesthetic of the 2009 reboot. The core loop involves selecting from distinct ship classes—such as slow but powerful Flagships or nimble Bombers—and engaging in chaotic team-based combat across modes like Deathmatch and Conquest. The atmosphere is heavily driven by iconic audio cues and music lifted directly from the film, creating an immersive sensory backdrop for the action. Visually, it adopts a clean, modernized take on classic arcade aesthetics reminiscent of Asteroids. While the premise is straightforward—destroy enemy ships and objectives—the craft relies on tight twin-stick controls and varied ship handling to maintain engagement. It serves as a pure multiplayer playground rather than a narrative journey, offering a nostalgic yet accessible interpretation of Starfleet versus Romulan skirmishes.
Strong in Co-op / MultiplayerAudio / MusicCombatPacing
Keep in mind The single-player mode lacks narrative depth or meaningful progression, functioning merely as a survival timer against waves of enemies. Additionally, the game suffers from a lack of long-term content and has faced server stability issues, making the multiplayer experience inconsistent for many players.
