Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova (Switch) Review

by John Rairdin - October 14, 2022, 9:19 am EDT Discuss in talkback!

An entry point for a new next generation.

Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova, in keeping with its namesake, is a kid focused take on the Star Trek Universe. Much like the animated series upon which it is based, it provides an accessible entry point for a younger audience into the expansive Star Trek series. Featuring the full voice cast of the show, including Kate Mulgrew reprising her role as a hologram of Katherine Janeway, Supernova feels very much in the same tone as Star Trek Prodigy itself. As a game Supernova nails exactly what it is going for but only rarely goes above and beyond. As a result it harkens back to an age of regular lower budget game tie-ins that while often rough around the edges, carried with them a fair bit of charm.

For those completely unfamiliar with the show. Star Trek Prodigy tells the story of a group of young escaped prisoners, who find freedom on a stolen Federation starship. The ship itself is a Starfleet training vessel where the young crew ultimately are taught the values of Starfleet and the Federation as they attempt to escape their former captors. Supernova itself takes place during the first season of the show so there isn’t too much backstory to catch up on. The story is accessible however a working knowledge of Stark Trek Prodigy will certainly make it more enjoyable. An understanding of the greater Star Trek universe is not needed in the slightest, and only serves to provide light chuckles when characters reference various species passingly in dialogue. Much of this feels more like a madlib with Star Trek names inserted than meaningful dialogue, but where else are you going to find reference to the Xindi outside of Season 3 of Star Trek Enterprise, so I’ll give it a pass.

Supernova is a top-down, level-based, adventure game with a strong focus on combat and puzzle solving. You play as Dal and Gwyn, either by alternating between them or cooperatively in local multiplayer. Levels play out across a series of linear stages on one of three different planets. While the path through each stage is generally straight forward with little need to backtrack, plenty of hidden collectibles and unlockables are strewn throughout. You’ll also collect breakable crystals as you go which can be traded in for upgrades back on the Protostar (your ship). These upgrades are purchased from the other members of your crew, who must be rescued before you’ll have access to their upgrades. Rescued crew members also aid you in combat. After you’ve dealt out enough damage the unique ability of whatever crew member you have assigned to your character will kick in. Combat in general however is probably the weakest aspect of Supernova. The controls often feel clunky, with dashes used for dodging attacks taking a moment too long to register. Enemy unit types are also limited and combat encounters tend to feel repetitive very quickly. Puzzle solving on the other hand stands out as a strength. Many of these deal with manipulating the flow of energy through various conduits, but almost every stage introduces some new mechanic for how you’re able to do this. Later puzzles, though not too baffling, become genuinely expansive and require both characters working in tandem to solve.

Presentation on a whole is reasonably good for what is obviously a limited budget. Despite each planet being used repeatedly, individual levels look somewhat distinct and the underlying art blends fantastically with the style of Star Trek Prodigy. Sound design is a bit less impressive. While the game is fully voiced, dialogue subtitles are often entirely wrong, likely due to actors improvising on the given script. The sound mix by default also places dialogue and sound effects so far above the music that for the first couple stages I didn’t think there was any. I’d recommend leaving music at 10 but turning sound and voices down to about 6.

Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova is a straightforward, easy to understand adventure game that does its job of being approachable for a younger audience. The inclusion of optional cooperative multiplayer locally on a single system earns it some bonus points for being playable with friends, siblings, or parents. Fans of the series will also find plenty to enjoy from familiar characters. While combat can get a little repetitive, the puzzles are genuinely inventive. Ultimately whether a trekkie or not, Supernova provides a reasonably solid experience with fun multiplayer that is approachable for everyone.

• Canon though standalone story
• Cooperative multiplayer
• Full original cast
• Solid puzzle design
• Clunky repetative combat
• Minor presentational issues
• References to larger Star Trek universe are comically forced

Critic reviews for star trek prodigy: supernova, nintendo life.

For Trek-starved fans with Nintendo consoles, Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova does a good job - far better than you might expect - of channelling the show's spirit and appeal into a light, kid-friendly co-op adventure with plenty of puzzles. By tapping into those Trek tenets of friendship, cooperation, and problem-solving as a team, Tessera Studios has created something far closer in spirit to the series than any dry space sim, even if (much like the inexperienced crew running the Protostar) it can often feel a little rough around the edges. It's not set to stun, then, but it shows plenty of promise, especially if you have young cadets eager to enlist.

Read full review

The poor writing and bad direction don't take away too much from the co-op action of this cartoon tie-in. Fans of the show will definitely get more out of it than non-fans.

NintendoWorldReport

Fans of the series will also find plenty to enjoy from familiar characters. While combat can get a little repetitive, the puzzles are genuinely inventive. Ultimately whether a trekkie or not, Supernova provides a reasonably solid experience with fun multiplayer that is approachable for everyone.

Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova represents an effort to engage the children's audience not only on TV screens, but also in video games. But for that, it brings too little interesting content, and moreover, the stereotype immediately sets in. So you only have a five-hour journey across 3 planets, where you do the same thing over and over. Moreover, with glitches and a bad camera work.

Rapid Reviews UK

Star Trek as a franchise has gone through quite the revival over the last few years. With shows like ‘Star Trek: Picard’, ‘Star Trek: Discovery’, and ‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’ to entertain adult “Trekkies”. Not content with leaving Star Trek to the mature crowd, Alex Kurzman has delivered his extended universe to the younger generation too.

Star Trek: Prodigy Supernova has an enjoyable gameplay loop that, undoubtedly, is best enjoyed in local co-op and played with a fan of the show. It doesn’t break new ground in the platforming space and certainly isn’t among the best Star Trek games, but the story really befits the characters and the game stayed fresh enough to remain interesting over the long term.

LadiesGamers.com

For some, the game might be a bit prescriptive. But it’s based on an animated children’s TV programme, so it needs to be playable and enjoyable for that audience. This would be a great introduction to the adventure puzzle genre for younger players. That said, I thoroughly enjoyed playing it. I didn’t need to know anything about the TV series to engage fully with Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova.

WayTooManyGames

Cheapness and slight amount of jank aside, Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova is actually a pretty decent game.

New Star Trek Game Confirmed After Leak, Coming To PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, And PC

Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova is a new game in the series for console and PC.

By Eddie Makuch on April 8, 2022 at 7:34AM PDT

Following a leak, a new Star Trek video game has now been officially confirmed. Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova, based on the animated TV series Star Trek: Prodigy, is on the way for PS4, Xbox One, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Nintendo Switch.

Like the TV series, it follows the story of six alien teenagers living on an abandoned Federation starship. "This game also marks the first ever Star Trek video game aimed at younger players, bringing gaming to a new generation of Trekkies," reads a line from the announcement.

Outright Games, a company with lots of experiences with licensed games , is working on Supernova. Outright has developed games in the My Little Pony, Fast & Furious, and Hotel Transylvania franchises, among others. Tessera Games , a newly formed studio, is also listed as a developer.

More details on the upcoming game will be shared over the coming months.

Supernova joins the recently announced Star Trek: Resurgence . This is a third-person adventure game that tells an original story that takes place after the events of Star Trek: The Next Generation. This game is coming from a studio made up of former Telltale developers.

In other Star Trek news, Paramount has announced that Star Trek: Picard Season 3 will reunite the cast of The Next Generation.

‘Star Trek: Resurgence’ launches May 23rd on most platforms

The telltale-esque narrative adventure is set just after tng..

Developer Dramatic Labs has set a release date of May 23rd for the narrative adventure game Star Trek: Resurgence . It was supposed to come out in spring of 2022 , but better late than never, right? The title launches for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC via the Epic Games Store. So pretty much everything but the Switch.

If the term “narrative adventure game” brings to mind Telltale classics like The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us , there is a good reason. Dramatic Labs is made up of former Telltale developers, some of which worked on those iconic adventure games. So you can expect a title that prioritizes making tough decisions over whiz-bang action. Star Trek as a franchise seems especially suited to this style of play, given the often thoughtful nature of the stories.

Star Trek: Resurgence is set shortly after the events of Star Trek: The Next Generation , placing it before the events of Star Trek: Picard but relatively concurrent with the events of Star Trek: Lower Decks . This is Star Trek. There are lots of timelines to keep track of.

The game features two playable lead characters, neither of which will be familiar to fans. However, Dramatic Labs has teased the presence of legacy characters from throughout the universe, and it has already revealed that the one and only Spock will feature heavily in the storyline. This is not the Spock from the original Star Trek and its sequel movies, but rather the aged Ambassador Spock as seen in The Next Generation timeline. The story involves stopping a war between two alien races, which is something the Vulcan ambassador would most certainly get behind.

Resurgence uses the Unreal 5 engine, which should eliminate some of the jankiness surrounding old-school Telltale games. There is also plenty of talent behind the scenes, so this is something to be cautiously optimistic about, as it has been a long time since a truly iconic Star Trek game appeared on our radar. In any event, we only have a month to find out if Resurgence lives up to classic early 2000s titles like Star Trek: Bridge Commander.

Rumor: Even More Nintendo Switch 2 Details Leak Online

A recent rumor making the rounds online potentially reveals even more details about the unannounced Nintendo Switch 2 console.

• Potential Switch 2 details have leaked online.
• Details suggest the Switch 2 will support existing Joy-Con controllers, have a bigger screen and improved resolution.
• Fans should approach leaked information with caution until Nintendo officially confirms details about the Switch 2.

Even more potential details surrounding the yet-to-be-announced Nintendo Switch 2 console have leaked online. Nintendo itself has not formally revealed the Switch 2 , but persistent rumors and leaks have suggested that the console is coming sooner rather than later. Some reports have even suggested that the Switch 2 release date will be late 2024, as opposed to 2025, which has been previously rumored.

It remains to be seen exactly when the Switch 2 will be out, but fans can count on the console coming eventually. After all, the Nintendo Switch has been a massive sales success , and Nintendo has consistently released new gaming hardware since the 1980s, even when its consoles haven't done well. Fans should take any leaked information about the Switch 2 with a grain of salt, but fresh details on the device may have leaked online.

Nintendo Switch 2 Rumor Suggests Console Could Be Releasing Sooner Than Expected

The latest Switch 2 leaks stem from Switch accessory maker Mobapad , which allegedly posted the details on its Bilibili page. These details were then summarized by Resetera user --R , with reputable Nintendo leaker Pyoro chiming in to say that it seems the information has been known to "some manufacturers" and "Nintendo influencers" in China for some time, but they were unable to verify the details with their main source. They said that similar information had been "mentioned in some private discussions" in the past.

Nintendo Switch 2 Leaked Details

• The Bluetooth chip of Switch 2 still supports existing Joy-Con and Pro controllers, and still features HD vibration (ALPS dual-axis linear motor).
• Switch 2 has backwards compatibility with Switch 1 cartridges, but Switch 2 cartridges will be different and won't fit on a Switch 1.
• The new joycons are larger and are magnetically attached to the console with an electromagnet. The SL and SR buttons are metallic now, and there's a new button behind each joycon ( location where the button is ) and a new button below the home button on the right joycon ( location where the button is )
• The dock still has an USB-C port and will also support 4K image output.
• The new kickstand also has a damping bracket on the back for improved angle adjustment.
• The screen is bigger, up to 8 inches and the resolution is upgraded to 1080p.

According to the leaked details, the Switch 2 Bluetooth chip supports existing Joy-Con and Pro controllers, with the controllers supporting HD vibration. It's said that Switch 2 will be backward compatible. The report backs up recent claims about the new Joy-Cons using magnets instead of rails. It goes further to say that the Joy-Cons have additional buttons.

The Switch 2 dock is said to have a USB-C port and support for 4K image output, a revamped kickstand with "improved angle adjustment" and a bigger screen with 1080p resolution. Assuming all of this information is accurate, it sounds like the Nintendo Switch 2 will be a definite upgrade over the original Switch, though as always, fans should treat these claims with healthy skepticism until Nintendo itself provides clarification.

It's unclear when Nintendo might announce the Switch 2 console. As it stands, Nintendo's second-half of 2024 is pretty bare at the moment, with the rest of its major announced games expected to be out by the end of summer, except for the long-in-development Metroid Prime 4 . There have been some whispers that Metroid Prime 4 may be shifting its focus to Switch 2 anyway, though that remains to be seen. Ultimately, fans will just have to wait patiently until Nintendo decides to unveil the Switch 2, or whatever it ends up being called, to the world.

Players can now warp into a world of games in style with the Nintendo Switch – OLED Model: Mario Red Edition console.

There are also some hidden coins on display!
