About Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown
Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown is a story‑driven survival strategy game where you command the damaged U.S.S. Voyager in the Delta Quadrant. You must repair the ship, manage resources, and decide how to interact with alien threats and opportunities.
Each playthrough features rogue‑like elements, so situations and character fates change. An optional Q Trials mode offers a faster, run‑based experience with meta‑progression that carries over completed research.
01 / THE GUIDE
What‑If Scenarios
The game lets you explore alternate outcomes for iconic moments, such as different decisions by Captain Janeway or crew members taking unexpected paths. You can also choose to adopt controversial technologies like Borg tech, weighing potential benefits against the dangers described.
Because each run generates new situations, characters may meet an early end if you fail to react appropriately, reinforcing the weight of every decision you make.
- Consider the long‑term impact of risky technology before committing resources.
- Track which choices lead to early character loss for future runs.
02 / THE GUIDE
Ship Management & Research
Voyager arrives heavily damaged and in need of repairs. You must restore destroyed rooms, secure life support and energy supplies, and construct new ship systems, crew quarters, industrial and research facilities as the journey progresses.
Expediting research unlocks new technologies and improved layouts that strengthen the ship and boost crew morale. Exotic research, such as Borg technology, is available but carries additional danger.
- Balance safe research projects with occasional high‑risk experiments.
- Plan construction order to keep essential systems operational.

Exploration & Resource Acquisition
Scanning celestial bodies reveals precious resources needed for Voyager’s journey. Points of interest and oddities can provide valuable supplies, but careless actions invite punishment from the Delta Quadrant environment.
You have the final say in plotting a course and defining an approach, which influences both the quantity of resources found and the hazards encountered.
- Use cautious scanning to avoid triggering hostile encounters.
- Weigh bold approaches against potential penalties.
04 / THE GUIDE
Combat & Away Missions
Ship combat lets you issue offensive and defensive orders from the bridge, targeting enemy systems and deploying special weaponry. Assigning crew to battle stations lets their individual skills affect combat effectiveness.
Away missions require assembling a team based on crew talents. You can choose a cautious, rushed, or scientific approach, and the composition you select influences mission risk and reward.
- Match crew specialties to mission objectives for lower risk.
- Assign high‑skill crew to critical battle stations during fights.
05 / THE GUIDE
Q Trials Mode
Q Trials is a rogue‑lite mode where the omnipotent Q presents a faster, run‑based experience with optional challenges. You choose a captain, crew, and modifiers to customize each run.
There is no story or away missions; each run generates its own adventure. Completed research is saved when you exit a sector, providing meta‑progression for future runs.
- Experiment with different crew combos to discover hidden synergies.
- Leverage saved research to accelerate later sectors.
