Suggestion for mini-game in STO

Dear STO development team,
I have to say, I really like STO very much, even though there are some minor bugs there and there, but overall, it is a very well structured game! I buy Perfect World Game Card on and off to my nearby Walmart/Target to support and enjoy the game even further, thank you team.

I am wondering if it is possible to look into have the "Tri-dimensional" Chess boards somewhere in the game to increase the depth and aspects of Star Trek World. Especially for many Trekies, this would be an awesome blast!!!


Thank you for reading and consideration

    It would be fun for us Trekkers, too (although I have a physical Star Trek Three-Dimensional Chess Set -- envy me). I support this suggestion.

    there's a long list of minigames that have been proposed.

    Poker(meh, but it's been seen in the show)
    Dom-jot (kinda like billiards)
    Fizzbin (not that anyone ever wrote down the COMPLETE rules)
    Chula (AKA the Wadi game, a holodeck simulation/boardgame sort of thing)
    Tongo (a Ferengi game that had a mix of a wheel and cards)

    Maybe we could add Species, starship, or anomaly to the list? :D

    Making a tri-dimensional chess set wouldn't be all that hard. It has 3 4/4 boards and either 4 or 6, depending on the variant, 2/2 boards, with the same pieces as regular chess. You could buy a cheap chess set with a cardboard board and cut the board to make the board.

    Yes I have wondered why we can't play poker in the game. I am all for this if it does not take time away from the foundry that is. Maybe the Klingon's could get Worf's holo programs too.

    Um, Kal-toh is less of a game and more of a giant brainteaser.... kinda like those things where you move pegs around until you run out of pegs.

    Any new mini game will be an enhancement. Playing dabo is quiet boring. You cant really loose and there is no strategy involved at all. Even roulette is superior compared to that.
    Maybe we have to convince cryptic a bit different and talk in their language: Put some mini game tables on ESD, DS9 and Drozana station where ppl can play with EC but before you can play and get access you have to buy a license for zen :)

    Yes, Dabo is getting boring... Poker game will be an awesome add in if we all bet in energy credits or Gold Latnium..
