Reception

In a review of Star Trek Adventures in Black Gate, Patrick Kanouse said: <blockquote>Overall, Star Trek Adventures is an excellent system with rich but simple mechanics that support the feel of a Star Trek game. Modiphius [has] done a superb job, and any wishing to play in the Star Trek universe should take a look at this game system. I look forward to my own gaming group's continuing missions.</blockquote>In a 2024 review of the 2nd edition for Forbes, Rob Wieland wrote:<blockquote>The original edition of Star Trek Adventures focused on older media in the franchise because it came out during something of a fallow period for the IP. This book includes content from the popular shows that have come out more recently [...] The second edition focuses more on feeling like Star Trek, which I already thought the first edition did well. [...] Star Trek Adventures Second Edition is a great jumping on point for new fans while also making changes to the rules fans of the original edition will find mostly painless.</blockquote>James Amey for Trek Central wrote:<blockquote>it’s clear that the 2E rulebook was built with fan feedback at the forefront of the design process. [...] It’s leaps and bounds ahead of the previous book in the areas that count. Accessibility, readability and structure. </blockquote>
