This game can be satisfying for a Trek fan, but for an average computer game enthusiast, this game can put you to sleep. There are several complaints that are explained in the previous review that I completely agree with. I'm not saying that this game is horrible, but it is relatively limited. For Trek fans, this game may be appealing, but it's not a game that's going to draw you into a story line or something. it is more like a game you can full around with on your spar time, you won't be cough up in it for hours.
It creates nothing

I bought this product with the intent of being an interactive game. Instead, you just watch the screen for what seems an eternity seeing this little blip of a starship that you had just created reach its final destination point. There is no action at all. Very boring just watching the screen and doing nothing. After the first week, I was board after creating the starship you choose. And there very few missions to pick from. Thumbs down.
What A Piece Of Junk!

Unfortunately I have to agree with most of the other reviewers. Starship Creator is very lacking and restrictive in its abilities. There is little flexibility. Hopefully the Star Trek franchise will come out with something much better soon. Let's keep our fingers crossed! Where is Q when you need him?
Screen savers are better.

The title of this review says it all. You go through a lot of clicks and set up to maximize your budget to build a new design of Starship. The missions when you test your vehicle are much more boring than most screen savers. Many warn this is not an action game but battle chess has more interesting items to please the viewer and much more hands on control.

It's very slow, and takes a long time. If you don't know about Star Trek, it would be hard to design a starship.

From what I read in reviews, I thought it was bad, but the people aren't always right. It was pretty cool, designing the ship. The lowest point is that you have almost no control in the missions. I didn't see what people meant by seeing if you had the right crew. I just picked a bunch of my favorates and it turned out fine, everytime.
The coolest Mac program ever that was.

I love this game.
You can mix and match your favourite characters, add on all the starship systems you like, and send your starships on missions.
the part I didn't like was that all the starships followed a traditional design, and you can't create anything completely original. Other than that, this is a blast! (and a phaser blast at that)
FUN IF LIKE TO BUILD AND STAFF THINGS

THE BEST PART OF THE GAME IS BUILDING AND STAFFING THE SPACESHIPS YOU CAN BUILD. WHEN YOU THEN SEND YOUR SHIP OUT ON IT'S MISSION YOU JUST SIT BACK AND WAIT AND WAIT AND IT GET BORING BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO LET THE PROGRAM RUN IT'S COURS -- THERE IS NO ROOM FOR IMPROVE.
Not worth a dime

This "game" is very primative, and not worth anywhere near what they charging for it. In all honesty, i wouldn't keep the game if it was freeware, much less having to pay for it.
The concept of it is great, but the product just isnt any good. the missions are incredibly slow, and boring, where you get to watch a vague resemblance of your ship slowly make its way across the screen, while you read about stuff its going through. no interaction whatsoever. the designing part doesnt get very far either, where there is no origionality. If the game was made so that you could design ships that you would use in other games, maybe it'd be worth it, then. but as of now, it just doesnt make the cut.
Very dissapointing!
