GameSpot praised the game for its graphics, which accurately replicated the ships from Star Trek: The Next Generation. Star Trek: Armada was noted as one of the few good Star Trek games to be made by GameSpot, garnering a 7.9 out of 10. Officers are used to command ships, which artificially limits the number of units that a player can field at any one time. Crew is automatically generated over time via starbases (the resource rate can be increased by building a Starbase in orbit of a planet), while Dilithium is mined from moons by resource gatherers. Three resources are used in the game: Crew, Dilithium and Officers. The player may encounter a variety of celestial bodies such as planetoids, asteroids, and nebulae, each having an effect on gameplay. Individual games are played out on a representative scale that is roughly equivalent to a planetary system. The game's multi-player mode allows for skirmish battles with the computer or other players. The game features a continuous campaign divided into five parts: one for each of the playable races and a fifth part in which the player fights against the Borg while controlling an alliance of the other three races.
Each class of ship possesses a unique tactical ability. Not including construction, mining, and campaign-only ships, each faction fields six different classes of starship ranging from scouts to capital ships. A handful of ships from other Star Trek races make cameo appearances, such as the Dominion, Cardassians, and Ferengi. Four playable factions are featured in the game: the Federation, the Klingons, the Romulans, and the Borg. Star Trek: Armada is a real-time strategy video game in which players select a faction from the Star Trek universe and build fleets of starships to conduct battle.
