Star Trek: Timelines is the best Trek game in years

The best Star Trek game I’ve played in a long time, surprisingly, is a free-to-play mobile app — a style I usually despise for feeling cheap and lacking substantial gameplay.

Not that it has a lot of competition. Despite the popularity and versatility of the franchise, we haven’t seen a decent game based on the property in over a decade. Star Trek: Timelines, out now for iOS and Android (I played it on an iPhone 6), is more than decent. It’s actually a lot of fun.
