players will need to secure access to five levels of the main computer, obtain a phaser from Security, and successfully crawl down a Jeffries tube to access the Bridge, all within the 60 minutes before the ship reaches the Klingon home world. There are multiple events in the videotape which affect game play, and once the countdown clock hits 00:00, the ship reaches Qo'noS and is attacked by Klingon ships stationed there. The Enterprise manages to destroy one Bird of Prey before the Klingons hit the Enterprises nacelle, destroying Enterprise, igniting a war and ending the game in defeat.

Reception The A.V. Club, notes that in the 1980s and 1990s, VCR based games came closer to offering audiences "immersive, interactive audio-visual experience" in a novel way. This title is noted for Robert O'Reilly playing a disgruntled Klingon that demands a response from players. Rob Wieland of Game & Sundry, said its surreal to see Robert O'Reilly cast a Klingon other than Gowron in the video segments. They said its a "pretty basic board game" but called the video a "campy delight" for fans.
