DS9: The Fallen, from Simon & Schuster and Collective Studios, is a shooting adventure that even non-Trek fans can enjoy. How did the developers do it? Check out our review of Star Trek Deep Space Nine: The Fallen to find out!

"It's likely players picking up The Fallen would have at least a passing interest in Star Trek, however, and it's good to see that the developers appear to be both experienced gamers and solid Trek fans. The Fallen's timetable is somewhere before the conclusion of the DS9 television series, where it ties into existing plots about the battle between the various powers for control of the artifacts known as the Red Orbs. There are three of these orbs, and each can bestow remarkable powers to those that harness them. Your job, of course, is to put the orbs in the custody of the good guys, because if the bad guys get their hands on these balls, it'll be a painful time for the entire universe."
