Step into the Shadows of Deep Space Nine – Rediscover Harbinger
Relive the mystery, mayhem, and maze-like madness of the 1996 PC classic Star Trek: Deep Space Nine – Harbinger in a nostalgic deep-dive filled with laughter, lore, and laser fire!
In this episode, the hosts of the show team up with special guest Rick from the Infinite Potato Alliance and Chris’s cohost on Unspeakable: A Call of Cthulu Actual Play Podcast to boldly go back to a forgotten corner of Trek gaming history. From technical hiccups to holosuite hijinks, they navigate the complex corridors of the Habitat Ring, dodge deadly drones, and try to outwit the Ferengi—all while sharing personal Star Trek stories and debating tactical decisions like true Starfleet officers.
They’ll explore the frustrating, fascinating mechanics of Harbinger, dissect its narrative twists—including murder mysteries and shady negotiations—and reflect on how the game captured the spirit of Deep Space Nine… even when its design left them lost in a turbo lift.
Whether you’re a lifelong Trekkie or just discovering this gem of 90s PC gaming, this conversation blends passionate fandom, gameplay struggles, and hilarious banter in a tribute to one of Star Trek’s most ambitious interactive adventures.
