This video features Albie and Christopher DeFilippis from Treksploration as they play the 1996 interactive movie game, Star Trek: Borg. Throughout the nearly two-and-a-half-hour playthrough, the duo navigates the challenging, full-motion video (FMV) experience, often finding themselves in a time loop as they encounter difficult puzzles and decision points (0:09:00 – 0:10:00).
Key Highlights:
Gameplay Challenges: The hosts openly struggle with the game’s mechanics, frequently needing to restart segments after “dying” in the game (0:20:25, 1:17:53, 1:59:14).
Game Mechanics: They discuss the game’s unique “choose your own adventure” style, the use of a “floaty” interface for data investigation, and the frustration of having to click on precise screen pixels to advance (0:09:10, 0:58:48).
Trek and Tell: Beyond the gameplay, the hosts share physical Star Trek collectibles, including a Star Trek technical manual and navigational charts, reflecting on their personal history with the franchise (2:16:24 – 2:20:46).
Reflections: Despite the tedium and difficulty, they rate the game highly as a piece of Star Trek history and praise the production quality of the FMV sequences (2:23:59 – 2:24:28).
