To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the original Star Trek show being aired on television, the Star Trek 50th Anniversary Risk Game looks to give fans a bit of crossover gaming fun. The board game is traditionally played by having participants pick a country and participate in expansion efforts, but the Star Trek version sees the game take a different approach. Pitting the captains from the various generations of the franchise against each other, the players must battle against each other to complete intergalactic quests.
The Star Trek 50th Anniversary Risk Game helps to offer players a new take on a traditional board game that keeps the essential ethos alive, but injects it with a blast of pop culture prowess for entertainment.
