A tie-in novelization by Diane Carey was released by Pocket Books in June 1997. The game received an expansion pack in 1998 titled Chekov's Lost Missions and a sequel was released in 2000 called Star Trek: Klingon Academy. Abridged versions of the base game were also released with the subtitles Cadet Briefing and Strategic Command.

Gameplay

Apart from live-action cutscenes with branching dialogue that decides the course of the cutscene (allowing for the player to even risk summary dishonorable discharge in some circumstances), is a 3D space flight simulator, allowing players to command Federation starships of various classes in the single-player campaign, including the iconic Constitution-class - the ship class which includes the USS Enterprise - as well as its successor, the USS Excelsior. Ships are controlled through keyboard shortcut commands, though a joystick may also be configured. The mouse is usually used to interact with the ship's sections when off-action, which include the science station, communications, engineering, and even a database library with most persisting elements of the universe.

Setting

Starfleet Academy is set in the Star Trek universe, up to two years prior to the events of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. Captain James T. Kirk of the Enterprise arrives with Captain Hikaru Sulu and Pavel Chekov to Earth to attend the United Federation of Planets' Starfleet Academy's latest starting Command College class, on which Sulu is to evaluate for the next two years before he takes command of the Excelsior, as Kirk and Chekov help out in some particular simulator assignments.

Attending these classes is the human protagonist, Cadet David Forrester, to which he is assigned his crew - Vulcan Science Officer Sturek (whom is also Forrester's friend from earlier computer classes), Andorian Communications Officer Vanda M'Gila (who is the daughter of a renowned Andorian Ambassador mentioned in Star Trek: Klingon Academy), Engineer Robin Brady (an introvert, but technically proficient), Helmsman Jana Akton (an overworking Trill from a mining colony in the Levantine Expanse) and Tactical Officer Geoffrey Corin (a happy-go-lucky son of a wealthy Alpha Centauri family) - which Forrester must monitor their performance and frequently settle their recurring conflicts to ensure they can perform well in the simulated missions.

Plot

Forrester and his crew start their Academy term and first missions, working well as a team "in spite of their occasional bickering", as noted by Kirk in one point. Forrester, at some expense, does manage to remedy some of the immediate issues affecting the team performance, including having Corin take his study responsibilities more seriously as well as getting Brady to be more socially active.

News suddenly reach the academy that the Federation-Andorian colony of Bicea, a once contested world by the Federation and the Klingons in the Neutral Zone, was attacked and destroyed by an unknown force with no survivors, M'Gila's mother counted amongst the casualties. With initial investigations suggesting Klingon disruptors were utilized in the attack, as well as an unauthorized counter-attack provoked by a Federation vessel gone rogue, tensions increase between the Feder
