The game places the user in control of the bridge crew of the Enterprise while they explore an area of space, attempting to understand why all previous Federation ships that entered the region have mutinied. They have five years to complete their mission, after which the entire area will be sealed off with the Enterprise trapped inside.
Each member of the bridge crew is in control of certain aspects of ship operations, allowing the player to control the mission through their stations. The user can also orbit above planets and beam down selected members to find devices or clues that can solve the mystery of the "Quarantine Zone".
