Star Trek Fleet Command is a 4X "explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate" mobile strategy game created by Irish developer Digit Game Studios and published by Scopely and CBS Interactive.[1] Players can explore star systems, build ships, mine resources, level up, complete missions, join alliances and battle other gamers.

The game follows the Kelvin timeline[2] from the Star Trek franchise, and includes iconic characters from the series: Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty, Sulu, Uhura, Nero, and more. In the likeness of 2016's Star Trek Beyond, players can collect and upgrade characters and deploy on ships for a RPG role-playing game-style element.

Gameplay[]

In Star Trek Fleet Command, players start out with a space station and one ship. They can explore galactic systems, interact with NPCs and other players as well as complete missions. Missions, mining and combat rewards give the player resources used to upgrade their space station and invest in new ships.[3]

The combat system is calculated based on turns but occurs in real-time gameplay. It is possible to attack or be attacked by NPC or other players' ships.[3] The game features an alliance system as well as a galaxy, alliance and private chats.[3]

There are also events that can reward players with various in-game rewards. The game also includes a variety of in-game purchases ranging from $4.99 to $99.99..[4][5]
