Player rating: 61% Crewman John Fischer is a recent graduate of Starfleet Academy assigned to the USS Newton, a Constitution-class vessel currently tasked with performing scientific surveys in Sector 004. On the completion of his first week aboard his new assignment, John begins to realise that the reality of life in Starfleet isn't all chasing hostile aliens and meeting strange cultures. In fact, it can be quite dull. No sooner does he log this gloomy summary than the ship is rattled by some unseen force that disables many of the ships systems! Isolated and unaware of what is wreaking havoc on the Newton, John must get to his duty station and help himself and his crew stabilise the ship.

AGS Panel review for this game:
The AGS Review Panel has left a comment about this game: A solid first entry into what could be a very promising Star Trek spinoff series. Intuitive (if somewhat easy) puzzles and pleasant, simple-yet-colorful characters and backgrounds establish Newton as a bold first step in going where no man has gone before.

Posted by Intense Degree on 2010-01-29 at 13:47 (IP logged): Really enjoyed this game, would certainly recommend it and am looking forward to part 2. One interesting thing is that this did not need to be a "star trek" game (although there is nothing wrong with it being so), so even if you are not a star trek fan you can enjoy this greatly. Posted by Jamol on 2009-11-12 at 20:03 (IP logged): Very well done. I enjoyed playing it and I'm looking forward to the next couple of episodes. The small font made it a bit difficult to find the hotspots, and most of the puzzles were quite easy. By the way, will there be a "you-touched-the-door-this-often-instead-of-just-walking-through-it"-counter in the next part? Posted by Helme on 2009-11-06 at 11:35 (IP logged): I good first game with an interesting plot, logical and easy puzzles and good, clean graphics. Some hotspots were hard to find, the font is too small to read in a window. Posted by bicilotti on 2009-11-05 at 11:35 (IP logged): Recommended game. I've played it knowing little of the Star Trek series and enjoyed it a lot. Graphics are pretty and functional, puzzles interesting. More importantly, the story is intriguing and is developed in such a way that keeps the player hooked until the end. It is quite short for a medium lenght game and the end left me wanting for more! Posted by jkohen on 2009-11-03 at 12:55 (IP logged): I enjoyed playing this game. Nice story, it picks up quickly after the first couple minutes and keeps the interest growing towards the end. The graphics are simple, but effective. Unfortunately the game lacks feedback to most unnecessary actions the player would try, which sometimes makes gameplay a bit "dull." I hope the author comes back with part two. It would certainly be nice to see more depth in the main character.
