Description[]
- These are the continuing voyages of the starship USS Enterprise-A. The renegade Vulcan, Sybok, has taken command of my ship and intends to navigate the USS Enterprise through the "Great Barrier" at the center of the galaxy. His destination is a legendary planet known only as Sha Ka Ree. Sensors have picked up a Klingon bird-of-prey closing fast at warp speed. If we are forced into combat, we will be out-gunned and out-maneuvered. I have nothing to rely on except my wits and the abilities of my crew. "May fortune favor the foolish".
- As Captain James T. Kirk, it is now up to you as you face the ruthless Klingon, Klaa. Interact freely with your bridge crew as you never thought possible. "What are your orders, Keptin?".
- Ultra-realistic graphics and sound create the experience and bring you into the action and adventure that is Star Trek.
- Boldly go where no man has gone before…
Summary[]

Background[]
- This is an adaptation of TOS movie, novelization & comic adaptation: Star Trek V: The Final Frontier.
- The copy protection on the game consisted of a cipher system provided in the user's manual. In order to play, the user would load the game and be prompted with a Klingonese phrase. A Klingonese phrasebook was provided, and entering a correct translation provided access to gameplay, meaning that a user copying the disks would also have to obtain a copy of the manual in order to play. Conceivably, a user with a familiarity with the language could perform translations and access the game without the manual.
- The Klingon language depicted in the manual is based directly on tlhIngan Hol phrases that were used in ST reference: The Klingon Dictionary and the Star Trek V film, as provided by Marc Okrand. In the game's manual, the printed Klingonese used the Klingon alphabet that had originated in fan fiction as shown in the USS Enterprise Officer's Manual, by Geoffrey Mandel and Doug Drexler.
- Artwork in the game manual is derived from a number of other sources, including Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise Shane Johnson and the Star Fleet Technical Manual by Franz Joseph.
