Ok, next one. Another trek game, but more
interactive. I believe it
was basically a battle, ie. a Klingon
showed up, and you talked until someone started shooting. It was
more
like the adventure games that
came later, 'fire phasers', etc. The source was protected, so you
could
not list it, and figure out how to win.
Anyone remember that one?
Not offhand, though it sounds vaguely like a few other games. Was it
written in BASIC? What system(s) did it run on?
