Don't bother to dream it because you can't build it.

You can't mix and match parts from different ships or rearrange the how the parts fit together. You only get three options for each standard part on each ship. The Missions are sit back and watch .........until you grow old. There is absolutely no interaction between you and the mission. I will never buy anything from this software company again. Star Trek should never have licensed their name for this product.

I am going to regret all my life for purchased this game

I purchased this Starship Creator Deluxe Edition. I thought I got a good deal and can't wait to load it into my Pentium II computer. Until I found I just made one big mistake in my life for purchased it.

No! Even if you are a Star Trek Fan you won't like it. And even if you have the best computer, this game won't do any good.

First of all, you won't get to create or design anything. I am an aerospace engineering student at UCLA, and I found it neither entertaining or educating. Second, you won't get any real 3-D graphics at all. The graphics is slightly better than the X-Wing game came out in 1993.

If you try to name your own starships and print them out to show your friends, they will laugh at you. Because the poor graphics looks like you download them from some freeware, and this program can't even put the letters in their actual place on the ship's hull.

Anyone who gave even one star to this title was too generous!

Worst Game Ever?

I bought this game because it sounded good, make your own ship and fly it around. When you are building your ship the only thing limiting what you can put in your ship is energy, but you have enough energy to put in the maximum of everything. Then when you are picking your crew it doesnt make any difference who you pick, ther are no specials, and the crew never does anything, you don't even have to pick anyone. There is no plot, you just pick a mission from the list and it does it, then you pick another one. Finally, you don't even get to fly your ship! You just watch a picture of a ship move slowly across the screen and read the occasional messages. The only interaction is one or two questions per mission witch usually are things like "What are our orders? Return to Base or Stay Here?" Don't Waste your money on this game, if you can even call it that.

Not even worth one star

I, like the others here, thought that this game would be wonderful. The idea of designing, building, testing, and flying ones own Starfleet vessel was very intriguing; then, I played the 'game.' It was a complete waste of time, far too slow, and did not offer any exciting aspects that are present not only in the series' but in other ST games as well. This does not even come up to the level of a screen saver--a total waste of money.

Well?

This program has great graphics and sound effects, but when you run a mission, it's boring, if only it was more interactive.

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!

Very poor support

Mediocre product, IF you can install it. If not, Macmillan's support group is completely incapable of anything beyond generic troubleshooting.

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?

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.
