SIMON & SCHUSTER DEBUTS "STARSHIP CREATOR: WARP 2" CD-ROM.

Simon & Schuster Interactive has introduced their Star Trek entertainment CD-ROM "STARSHIP CREATOR: WARP 2" (PC/Mac CD- ROM, $29.95 estimated street price).

The follow-up to the best-selling "Starship Creator Deluxe," "WARP 2" gives Trekkers what they've been waiting for - the ability to create their own Starships, fly them simultaneously in one of 34 scenarios, the ability to create their own scenes for "mini-episodes" with a drag-and-drop scenario creator and photo editing features that puts Trekkers in actual Starfleet Officer's uniforms.

"STARSHIP CREATOR: WARP 2" will also allow Trekkers to import their newly created Starships into Simon & Schuster Interactive's tactical combat / role playing game, "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Dominion Wars."

Firsts in Star Trek Entertainment CD-ROMs

WARP 2 has two unique features never before offered in any other Star Trek title. First, Trekkers can add digital photos of themselves and "put on" a Starfleet uniform and write their own bios which appear in scenarios. Trekkers can then export themselves into the forthcoming DOMINION WARS game and see themselves in combat.

Secondly, Trekkers can now create their own "mini-episodes" of Star Trek with an easy-to-use drag and drop interface. Get creative and set out on your own Star Trek journeys - and send them to other Trekkers to see how they fare in your universe.
