From the arcade flyer:

BOLDLY GO WHERE NO ARCADE HAS GONE BEFORE

You are a voyager on the Starship Enterprise. And in your hands rest the awesome powers of the Federation fleet's mighty flagship. Warp Drive, Impulse Power, Phasers, and Photon Torpedoes stand ready to drive off the Klingons.

The Star Trek "Strategic Operations Simulator" vividly recreates actual battle conditions encountered by Federation starships on patrol. It's the same incredibly advanced fight simulator used to train Federation command officers. And it's built by Sega, the masterminds behind Frogger Zaxxon and Turbo.

Your mission is to open a new frontier in the arcade experience. To launch an all-out offensive on America's arcade game players. To bring them aboard and show and show them to their quarters.
