Incredible performances from Christopher Plummer and David Warner, who reprised their roles as General Chang and Chancellor Gorkon from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, and a great soundtrack were icing on the gagh. Klingon Academy sported significantly improved graphics - including fully destructible ship models that let players blow Federation dogs apart piece by piece - and much more varied ship types and weapons.
Luckily, Klingon Academy arrived a few years later to fix the majority of Starfleet Academy‘s mistakes, although instead of sitting in the polished chair of a Federation cruiser, players now found themselves in command of a fearsome Bird of Prey as a Klingon warrior. Although promising, Starfleet Academy missed the mark with subpar graphics, limited ship options, and buggy controls. 1997’s Starfleet Academy made a lot of big promises about finally letting players take a seat in “the center chair,” but ultimately disappointed fans when the game was finally released.
