Avid science fiction fans love to explore and learn the lore, universes, characters, ships etc of their favourite shows, books, comics, films and videogames.

It’s why developer Gambit Realm has recreated the shows original starship, USS Enterprise in all its glory for fans to download and explore for free.

The download also includes editing features with the official description saying: “We have included the Torque 3D editing tools – feel free to add objects to areas of the ship that are empty. Or, move things around to make your own custom Enterprise.”
“You also have access to the A.I. Marker Editor (ALT-A), which lets you add or edit A.I. within the missions.”
The full system requirements and download link are available here, with the studio highlighting the videogame requires 64-Bit Windows and it also requires older direct 9 drivers.
