Starfleet Orion is a 1978 science fiction strategy game written and published by Automated Simulations (who would become Epyx in 1983). It appears to be the first space-themed strategy game sold for microcomputer systems. The game was originally written in BASIC for the Commodore PET, but later ported to other early home computer platforms including the TRS-80 and Apple II. The game was something of a success, leading to a string of successes for the company, notably the major hit Temple of Apshai.

  • Starfleet Orion est un jeu vidéo de type wargame créé par Jon Freeman et Jim Connelly et publié parAutomated Simulations à partir de 1978 sur Apple II, Commodore PET et TRS-80. Le jeu prend place dans un univers de science-fiction et simule des affrontements entre deux flottes de vaisseaux spatiaux. Il se joue uniquement à deux, les joueurs jouant chacun à leur tour. À sa sortie, il est salué pour son réalisme par le magazine Byte. Il est considéré comme le premier wargame de science-fiction sur ordinateur et comme l'un des premiers jeux de ce type à vocation commerciale. En 1979, Automated Simulations en publie une suite, baptisé Invasion Orion, qui inclut notamment une intelligence artificielle permettant de jouer seul contre l’ordinateur. (fr)
