{{GameInfobox | developer = Judges Guild | publisher = Processor Technology Corporation | franchise = Star Trek | designer = Bruce Berry | features = Single-player | ww_rel = {{Release|1979|||WW|TRS-80}} | platforms = TRS-80 | media = Cassette Tape }} '''''Trek-80''''' is a [[computer game]] developed by [[Judges Guild]] in 1979 for the [[TRS-80]]. ==Plot== The object of ''Trek-80'' is to destroy all the Klingon vessels while losing no more than five supply tugs in a specified period of time. The player moves the ship using warp drive for galactic travel, and impulse drive for inner quadrant movement. The Enterprise and Klingon vessels are armed with phasers and photon torpedoes, while the supply tugs only have phasers. The Enterprise also has the ability to use the ram as a weapon.<ref name="Dragon36"/> ==Gameplay== The graphic layout is the usual galactic grid overlayed by an 8 x 8 quadrant grid found in [[Star Trek (text game)|Trek]] games. The Enterprise is depicted by an "E", and Klingons by a "K", and the tugs by the up arrow. Additional information displayed on-screen includes: stardate, ship's condition, quadrant, ship's energy, bases, torpedoes, and number of tugs lost.<ref name="Dragon36"/> ==Development== ''Trek-80'' was a basic language, 16K program written by Bruce Berry, and was the first computer game produced by a science-fiction/fantasy wargaming company. Barry took many ideas from the numerous Trek programs already on the market, and added a few new and different twists.<ref name="Dragon36"/> ==Reception== The game was reviewed in 1980 in ''[[Dragon (magazine)|The Dragon]]'' #36 by Michael Dodge. Dodge concluded the review with, "''Trek-80'' is a well written program and a good ''Star Trek'' game. The program's graphics are well laid out and easy to read, the mechanics are adequate, and the introductions of ramming and tugs are excellent features".<ref name="Dragon36">{{Cite journal |title=The Dragon's Augury |author=Dodge, Michael |journal=The Dragon |issue=36 |date=April 1980 |pages=64β65}}</ref> ==References== {{Reflist}} {{Star Trek}}
