Lol, well Todd... I can't beat Atari, but this one is as far back as I can remember. I must've been around 7 or 8 when I recall playing this:

Star Trek: Judgment Rites was the first Star Trek game I ever played. It came on 3.5" high density double sided (so spiffy!!) disks. It was a pain for me because I was new to computers at the time, and it required manually configuring my Sound Blaster audio card to work. Remember DOS 6.22 and the config.sys/autoexec.bat files? I remember "L" locked weapons in space and "E" gave you an emergency boost of power...and "D" let you concentrate your repair work on a specific system you chose. You navigated around on some awful bead looking starmap.

@SitNataan: No problem! You gave a pretty accurate description actually. The Morassia mission you mention is one of the longer missions because you have to walk back and forth between all the areas. The most god awful mission there was the one with the musical organs. You have to play them in a certain order while walking around on a floor that moved based on what you played. I HATED that mission. Come to think of it, I remember just firing the 10 photon torpedoes at a ship and full phasers and it was like an instant win in battle.
