Description

Captain Kirk has just received an urgent transmission from the commander of Starfleet detailing the situation on Nimbus III. The starship Enterprise is heading to the Neutral Zone. It appears that the Vulcan Sybok, driven by his religious aspirations, has kidnapped three Consuls, and the crew is ready to do everything they can to rescue them. However, it soon turns out that there are other players on the stage, and the Enterprise has to deal with an ambitious Klingon captain and other perils.

Based on a movie with the same name, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier consists of interaction with the crew members of the Enterprise, cutscenes, as well as various arcade games such as space combat sequences, hand-to-hand fights, etc. There is no save feature in the game.
