I can imagine it sorta of like Cosmic said, with most of the fighting done when you are off ship exploring new worlds, new civilizations, and boldy going where...
Well, you get the picture.
I can also imagine a few surprises when you return to the ship, should there be any unauthorized life forms on board for whatever reason.
I think a mixture of the two scenerios might keep the gameplay exciting and full of surprises.
This is going to be so much fun that it will probably be a big distraction on getting any commercial work done.
But oh well, it will be lots of fun.
It might also be interesting to go back to the orginial series (or TNG) and build a level for each episode. (sound clips from the shows would really set it off)
That way the fans will already know what to do for the objectives and what they might expect to find.
It would still be entertaining though if we add in a few extra improvements to the plots just to keep them guessing anyway.
As mentioned before, the only limitation will be your imagination, and that is why Sci-Fi is a full proof genre.

I have not played any, but I am sure there must be something out there.
I guess we'll have to do a bit of research on that and find out what has already been done.
