Unfortunately for me, Star Trek isn&#8217;t real. And even if it were, Starfleet won&#8217;t be founded for another century. Fortunately for me, Star Trek Timelines exists. This fantastic game lets me put on my virtual captain&#8217;s uniform and explore the final frontier daily. <\/p>\n<p><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"before\",\"adPosition\":0,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":0,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":0,\"ruleCount\":200,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":false,\"actualCount\":333} --><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"after\",\"adPosition\":1,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":1,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":0,\"ruleCount\":200,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":false,\"actualCount\":0} --><br \/>\n<!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"isEarlyInjection\":false,\"currentRuleCount\":200,\"actualCount\":0,\"hasActualCountMetThreshold\":null,\"countRemainingForInjection\":null,\"nextBlockCount\":null,\"hasCountRemainingForInjectionMetThreshold\":null} --><br \/>\n<!-- No winning ad found for zone: below first paragraph! --><br \/>\n<!-- No winning ad found for zone: mid intro! --><\/p>\n<p> I&#8217;m not much of a gamer. You could call me a casual gamer. I don&#8217;t clock in hours and hours on my PlayStation 4 or join trophy leagues. And to some, I wouldn&#8217;t be considered a hard-core Trekkie either. I&#8217;ve never owned a real-life Starfleet uniform or dressed up for a convention (in fact, I&#8217;ve only been to two cons in my entire life).

I didn&#8217;t intend to be, but I still play it every day. There&#8217;s just something about this game that&#8217;s so engrossing and hard to describe. When the app first came out nearly seven years ago, it was much more basic than it is today. And I honestly don&#8217;t know if I could get into it now if I were just starting, given how expansive the game has become.

Kirk, from various episodes and films. Each card has the original captain of the Enterprise in different outfits, with various skills and traits depending on what was happening in that chapter of the franchise. The most basic version of Kirk is &#8220;Captain Kirk,&#8221; a two-star (uncommon) card depicting him in his classic yellow tunic from Star Trek: The Original Series and holding a phaser. He&#8217;s one of the very first cards you get. So, he&#8217;s not incredibly powerful, but useful enough to get you through the initial stages of play. As the game progresses, you&#8217;ll acquire a three-star (rare) card of Kirk wearing his green command wrap, appropriately named &#8220;Command Wrap Kirk.&#8221; He is much more helpful at completing more challenging missions than his two-star counterpart. <\/p>\n<p><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"before\",\"adPosition\":4,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":4,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":4,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":false,\"actualCount\":1100} --><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"after\",\"adPosition\":5,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":5,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":4,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":false,\"actualCount\":0} --><br \/>\n<!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"isEarlyInjection\":false,\"currentRuleCount\":900,\"actualCount\":0,\"hasActualCountMetThreshold\":null,\"countRemainingForInjection\":null,\"nextBlockCount\":null,\"hasCountRemainingForInjectionMetThreshold\":null} --><\/p>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img image-expandable img-article-item\">\n<figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Four variations of James T.

Most crew members only have one or two variations. Take Lt. Savvik from the classic 80s films. She only has one card in the game, which is the character as portrayed by Kirstie Alley in The Wrath of Kahn (I would love to see more of Savvik in case anyone from Star Trek Timelines is reading this). Ro Laren from Star Trek: The Next Generation has two cards. The recurring villain Seska from Star Trek: Voyager has three variations. And it goes up from there to prominent cast members like Michael Burnham, having 21 variations.

This is a Star Trek Timelines phrase for leveling your character to maximum capacity. It&#8217;s important because the game limits how many cards you can have in play at any given time. When you first start the game, you&#8217;re allocated 175 crew quarters to manage your cards (that&#8217;s a lot more than when I started, even though I can&#8217;t remember how many you got in 2016). <\/p>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":7,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":7,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":7,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":427} --><\/p>\n<p> But those crew slots will fill up fast if you&#8217;re dedicated to playing the game daily like I am. So, choosing which crew you keep and discard is essential. When you max out a character card, that card is &#8220;immortalized,&#8221; meaning you can safely put them into the cryostasis chamber and bring them back out when you need them again. If you dismiss a crew member that&#8217;s not immortalized, they&#8217;re gone from your roster forever. <\/p>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":7,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":7,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":7,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":872} --><\/p>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":7,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":7,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":7,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":872} --><br \/>\n<!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"isEarlyInjection\":true,\"currentRuleCount\":900,\"actualCount\":872,\"hasActualCountMetThreshold\":true,\"countRemainingForInjection\":28,\"nextBlockCount\":240,\"hasCountRemainingForInjectionMetThreshold\":true,\"nextCount\":1112} --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"before\",\"adPosition\":7,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":7,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":7,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":true,\"actualCount\":900} --><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"after\",\"adPosition\":8,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":8,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":7,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":true,\"actualCount\":0} --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-missions-there-39-s-a-lot-to-do\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Missions_Theres_a_Lot_to_Do\"><\/span> The Missions: There&#8217;s a Lot to Do <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img image-expandable img-article-item\">\n<figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The galaxy map screen on Star Trek Timelines\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1725111846_608_Star-Trek-Timelines-Free-to-Play-in-the-Final-Frontier.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1725111846_608_Star-Trek-Timelines-Free-to-Play-in-the-Final-Frontier.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\">  <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em>Star Trek Timelines<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":8,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":8,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":8,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":212} --><\/p>\n<p> The primary way to advance your characters in the initial stages is to play the story of the game.

These missions involve sending your crew away on what amounts to mercenary operations for the various factions (Federation, Klingons, Romulans, Borg, etc.) in the game. And they&#8217;re critical because some items can only be acquired via Faction Missions. When you send your crew away on the shuttles, they&#8217;re unavailable to use in away missions until they return, ranging from one minute to nine hours.

Once you pick your opponent, some math voodoo (the best term I have for it) happens, and a winner is declared. If your crew loses, they&#8217;re out of action for a few hours.

The higher you rank in the event, the more rewards you get when it ends each Monday. Remember, tens of thousands of Trekkies compete in each week&#8217;s event, so it is tough to rank highly right off the bat. I&#8217;ve played for nearly seven years and usually rank in the 10-13,000 range. But that&#8217;s high enough to collect the new ultra-rare crew member of the week.

Yes, you can buy crew and resources to help you progress through the game faster, rank higher in events, and be a more formidable player overall. But I don&#8217;t think that matters much because victory isn&#8217;t really the point for me. The point is to immerse myself in the world of Star Trek every day. <\/p>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":21,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":21,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":21,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":299} --><\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"related-single\">Related: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/107923\/star-trek-voyager-never-built-this-tricorder-prototype-so-a-fan-did\/\">&#8216;Star Trek: Voyager&#8217; Never Built This Tricorder Prototype, So a Fan Did<\/a><\/span> <\/p>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":21,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":21,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":21,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":389} --><\/p>\n<p> And none of what I&#8217;ve described above costs you anything. You don&#8217;t even need to watch ads (although you get extra rewards if you do). I pay four dollars a month for the game to get a daily allowance of the game&#8217;s premium currency: dilithium, which allows me to gather extra resources and crew when something comes up that I really want. And to be frank, that&#8217;s a pittance of a price for what I get out of the game on a daily basis. <\/p>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":21,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":21,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":21,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":839} --><br \/>\n<!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"isEarlyInjection\":true,\"currentRuleCount\":900,\"actualCount\":839,\"hasActualCountMetThreshold\":true,\"countRemainingForInjection\":61,\"nextBlockCount\":633,\"hasCountRemainingForInjectionMetThreshold\":true,\"nextCount\":1472} --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"before\",\"adPosition\":21,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":21,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":21,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":true,\"actualCount\":900} --><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"after\",\"adPosition\":22,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":22,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":21,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":true,\"actualCount\":0} --><\/p>\n<p> Furthermore, if you play the game regularly, you get stuff for free literally all the time. Star Trek Timelines has multiple ways to recruit crew, level up your characters, advance through the game, and become a competitive player over time, which costs you nothing. Just one example is the daily reward. On the day I wrote this article, just for logging in, you could claim the three-star crew card, &#8220;Nella Daren,&#8221; from the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode &#8220;Lessons.&#8221; And if you log in every day until the end of the month, you can have her immortalized just for logging in and tapping &#8220;claim.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":22,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":22,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":22,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":572} --><\/p>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img image-expandable img-article-item\">\n<figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The Daily Rewards screen in Star Trek Timelines featuring &quot;Nella Daren&quot;\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1725111851_181_Star-Trek-Timelines-Free-to-Play-in-the-Final-Frontier.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1725111851_181_Star-Trek-Timelines-Free-to-Play-in-the-Final-Frontier.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\">  <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em>Star Trek Timelines<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":22,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":22,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":22,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":812} --><br \/>\n<!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"isEarlyInjection\":true,\"currentRuleCount\":900,\"actualCount\":812,\"hasActualCountMetThreshold\":true,\"countRemainingForInjection\":88,\"nextBlockCount\":546,\"hasCountRemainingForInjectionMetThreshold\":true,\"nextCount\":1358} --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"before\",\"adPosition\":22,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":22,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":22,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":true,\"actualCount\":900} --><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"after\",\"adPosition\":23,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":23,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":22,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"isEarlyInjection\":true,\"actualCount\":0} --><\/p>\n<p> Further still are Campaigns. If you complete your daily missions regularly, you can collect a super rare character and have it maxed out before the campaign ends (usually about a month). The current campaign features the four-star crew card &#8220;Katra McCoy&#8221; from Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. However, you can buy premium tracks on the campaign screen to get legendary crew cards. I don&#8217;t often purchase premium tracks on the campaign, but I did recently to get my aforementioned &#8220;Jakota Kirk&#8221;&#8212;and he was worth it. <\/p>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":23,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":23,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":23,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":458} --><\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"related-single\">Related: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/126133\/what-to-watch-before-star-trek-lower-decks-season-three\/\">What to Watch Before &#8216;Star Trek: Lower Decks&#8217; Season Three<\/a><\/span> <\/p>\n<p><!-- No repeatable ad for zone: character count repeatable. --><!-- Repeatable debug data: {\"injection\":\"none\",\"adPosition\":23,\"startingPoint\":0,\"skipEvery\":null,\"nbrPlacementFilledEachSkip\":23,\"nbrPlacementsScanned\":23,\"ruleCount\":900,\"degradationStartingPoint\":1,\"stopAds\":null,\"actualCount\":535} --><\/p>\n<p> As I mentioned before, winning isn&#8217;t the point for me, and I don&#8217;t often rank highly in events, despite paying for monthly dilithium and being a veteran player.

When an event rolls around that offers a legendary crew that I want, I&#8217;ll cash in those resources and grind through my weekend to get them.
