Writer Recommendation:

Star Trek Bridge Crew is an incredibly immersive VR experience that has been met with a lot of praise since its launch back in May of last year. The sci-fi space RPG puts you right in the captain's chair and lets you be a part of an iconic franchise that has an incredible cult following in the science fiction genre. It can also be played with VR, which is fantastic for those that haven't made the Virtual Reality Leap yet.

For more about the game:

Star Trek: Bridge Crew, playable in both VR and non-VR, will immerse you in the Star Trek universe. The game puts you and your friends in the heart of the U.S.S. Aegis.
Your mission: explore a largely uncharted sector of space known as The Trench, in hopes of locating a suitable new home world for the decimated Vulcan populace. The Klingon Empire is also active in the region, and their purpose is a threat to the Federation's plans.

Make strategic decisions and coordinate actions with your crew to complete the mission.
In co-op, you can form a crew of four players to serve in the roles of Captain, Helm, Tactical and Engineer. In addition to a dynamic storyline, the game features an "Ongoing Missions" mode, procedurally generating missions for countless hours of Solo and Co-op adventure.

In Star Trek: Bridge Crew, you'll need more than just individual skill to overcome the challenges; communication, trust, and close crew coordination are the keys to victory.
