If you are looking for some Star Trek while you wait for new episodes to arrive, you can try out some gaming. And three games this week have new updates.
Star Trek Timelines Fifth Anniversary Luau
The strategy role-playing mobile game Star Trek Timelines is celebrating its fifth anniversary with a limited-time giveaway and more. Now through February 2, players who roam the galaxy will be gifted with Captain Tom Paris, a free Luau Paris 5 Star Crew Member. During this time, the game will also introduce three new temporary achievements which when completed will grant players a copy of the Pineapple Paris Crew Member.
Trek Fans looking to celebrate all month long can also partake in the “A Woman of Conviction” limited-time event, set to go live on Jan 21. Players can join Sirella, wife of Klingon warrior Martok, to eliminate the parasitic beings controlling her husband and other top Klingon officials. By targeting the ship carrying Martok and Lieutenant Commander Dexter Remmick, players can eliminate the mother parasite and stop the invasion before it ends.

Can we get just one Star Trek game this decade that doesn’t see me as an open wallet?
Agreed. I wish we could get more quality games like Bridge Commander and Elite Force.
Yeah those are the best Trek games. The 25th Anniversary TOS game on the PC was pretty good too.
That Jetpack Joyride Star Trek game has less to do with Star Trek than the infamous “space fun” helmet toy. Jee-zis!
Man, that game looks so stupid.
Did I just see klingon dinosaurs there?
You sure did . That was great
Kind of reeks of desperation. “You know what this game needs? Klingon DINOSAURS!”
The Jetpack Joyride disappoints me. They could’ve at least made one of the jetpack options the rocket boots from Star Trek V!
Jetpack Joyride is still a thing? I remember it being rather fun when I still played mobile games.
Having to pay for Star Trek!?! That’s unheard of!
