Star Trek: Judgment Rites is a video game published by Interplay, which serves as a sequel to Star Trek: 25th Anniversary. The game engine is nearly identical to that of its predecessor, with some minor improvements in graphics and gameplay, such as the varying makeup of the away team. These away teams are always led by James T. Kirk, who is the only character the player directly controls.
The game is separated into eight parts, making the game episodic in nature. The parts are mostly self-contained, except for the final two missions which are directly connected. There is also a subtle overarching plot which is resolved in the end. The plotlines are varied, including a hostile takeover of a Federation research facility, exploring strange alien environments and the return of Trelane, now infatuated with the first World War.
The game was published on both floppies and CD-ROM. As with Star Trek: 25th Anniversary, the enhanced CD-ROM version includes voice acting by the original regular cast. In addition, William Campbell reprises his role as Trelane and Majel Barrett voices the on-board computer on the Enterprise. Unfortunately, this required the computer's database to be trimmed significantly, as in the floppy version it contained a plethora of information from TOS which was not crucial for finishing the game.
Judgment Rites was also released in a Limited Collector's Edition. This included the enhanced CD-ROM version of the game, another CD-ROM with a behind-the-scenes documentary and interviews with Gene Roddenberry and Leonard Nimoy, a specially designed badge, and a video cassette containing the episode "The City on the Edge of Forever" (The UK version of this video cassette also contained the previous episode, "Errand of Mercy").
With the exception of the cancelled game Star Trek: Secret of Vulcan Fury, which was originally intended to feature the entire original cast, DeForest Kelley's participation in lending his voice to Judgment Rites marked the final occasion in which he portrayed the role of Leonard McCoy.
