About Star Trek Online
Star Trek Online (STO) is a free-to-play, 3D, Sci-Fi MMORPG based on the popular Star Trek series. In this massively multiplayer online game brought to you by Cryptic Studios, players have many options to create their own destiny.
During character creation players are afforded the ability to choose between three canonical races: Federation, Klingon and Romulan. Each of these races comes with their own inherent blend of racial traits and players have the opportunity to customize their own unique species.
Enjoy a vast array of gameplay options as you explore iconic locations from the Star Trek series including Starfleet Academy, Deep Space Nine, The First City of Qo’nos, and many more. Participate in many different mission types to advance your character such as Star Fleet missions (raids), Genesis System missions (exploration), and The Foundry, where you can create your own playable mission to share with your friends and the whole Star Trek Online Universe as well as participate in other user generated missions. With the Duty Officer System, there is opportunity for offline progression as well, though this is optional.
Star Trek Online also has a skill-based crafting system which involves collecting various particles or data samples throughout the universe. With these particles and data samples, players are then able to craft items to assist them with their missions. As crafting skill increases, players are able to access a wider variety of more powerful items. Most items in the game can be upgraded for level and rarity and there is the opportunity to create Epic level items as well.
The MMORPG game can be downloaded for Windows from the Perfect World Entertainment platform, Arc Games, or from Steam. Perfect World Entertainment also offers a standalone Mac client download option.

User Reviews
If you're a fan of the shows, being able to walk around DS9 was pretty cool, and I've seen a number of people who role play. You can pick 1 of a few races or make your own alien. You can choose to be part of the federation, the Klingons, or the Romulans. You can also visit parts of the very ship that you fly around in space in. As a Star Trek fan it brought back memories of the shows and intrigue on what the story line holds next. Their events are also interesting. "Ice skating" races and snowball fights for the winter event with none other than "Q" himself. In the summer you get to go to Risa and have "hover board" type races and fly around with a jet pack to collect items. With each event, you collect tokens of sorts that you use to buy pets or new outfits or consumables.
Oh and there are Tribbles. Many different kinds. And yes, if you're not careful, they will breed in your inventory.
If you're looking to slip into the uniform of a Starfleet officer, raid enemy facilities as a Klingon officer, or make galaxy defining decision as a Romulan survivor, give this game a try. It's not likely to disappoint.
