Star Trek: Infinite review

Star Trek: Infinite is the only grand strategy game here and it ranks last on reviews. Paradox Interactive and Nimble Giant built it on the core systems of Stellaris, simplified for Star Trek. You lead the Federation, Klingon Empire, Romulan Star Empire or Cardassian Union and win through diplomacy, espionage or war, recruiting characters such as Picard, Janeway, Sisko, Data, Gowron and Garak. Ships include Intrepid and Defiant classes, Galor-class vessels and Negh'Var battleships, and the Enterprise-D can be unlocked through the story system. It runs on Windows and macOS and supports online PvP. Only 39% of 2,351 English Steam reviews are positive, though, and at $29.99 with 3 DLC it is weak value for the price.
