WHO IS THE CHARACTER THAT I PLAY IN THE GAME?
 
 
 
At the outset of the game you can choose to play as Sisko, Worf, or Kira.
WHAT'S DIFFERENT PLAYING AS THE 3 CHARACTERS?
 
 
 
1. They fulfill different objectives within each mission appropriate to their character.
2. Each character has a number of completely unique missions/levels that they must complete.
3. Their default weapon of choice is different. Sisko uses a Starfleet standard issue phaser… Kira uses a modified Bajoran phaser (it's highly accurate and packs a punch)… and Worf uses the Bat'leth- the two-handed Klingon sword of honor.
HOW MANY MISSIONS ARE THERE?
 

 

 
There are 9 missions per character with an average of 3 maps per mission. Although many of the missions take place at the same location each character takes a different path through the levels throughout the adventure.
WHICH AREAS OF DS9 CAN THE PLAYER EXPLORE?
 
 
 

1. Ops.

3. Sections of the docking rings.
2. The Promenade 4. Hitherto unseen sections of the pylons and ore processing facilities
IS THE DEFIANT IN THE GAME?
 
 
 
Absolutely. Sisko, Kira, and Worf each have a unique mission set inside the Defiant. The design team has virtually modeled the entire Defiant based upon the floor plans within the DS9: Technical Manual- including many of the areas that were never seen within the show.
HOW MANY WEAPONS ARE THERE?
 
 
 
There are 11 weapons that the player can use, each with their own secondary-firing mode.
WHAT ARE THE WEAPONS?
 
 
 
1. Federation Type-2 Phaser

7. Federation Grenade Launcher

2. Bajoran Phaser 8. Dominion Shock Blade
3. Klingon Bat'leth 9. Dominion Polaron Pulse Rifle
4. Federation Type-3A Phaser Rifle 10. Grigari Plasma Thrower
5. Cardassian Disruptor 11. Grigari EM Pulse Cannon
6. Photon Mines  
WHAT'S THE STORY?
 
 
 
The Pah-wraiths - a race of exiled, all-powerful aliens - are on the verge of returning. The keys to unleashing and harnessing their power are three archaic Red Orbs. The race to find the Orbs is on between you - playing as Captain Sisko, Major Kira, or Lt. Commander Worf - and a host of opposing forces that would use the ultimate power to dominate the Alpha Quadrant and all of its inhabitants.
WHO WROTE THE STORY?
 
 
 
Much of the game's story and mission progression was written by the Collective's design team. However, The Fallen ties into the MILLENNIUM saga, a trilogy of paperbacks and audio books by Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens , published by Pocket Books and Simon & Schuster Audio.
WHEN IS THE STORY IN THE DS9 TIMELINE?
 
 
 
The story represents an untold chapter of Deep Space Nine, set towards the end of the 6th season.
WHICH SHOW CHARACTERS ARE IN THE GAME?
 
 
 

Pretty much all of them:

1. Sisko, Worf, and Kira (of course) 8. Gul Dukat
2. O'Brien 9. Kai Winn
3. Bashir 10. Admiral Ross
4. Jadzia Dax 11. Nog
5. Odo 12. Rom
6. Quark 13. Leeta
7. Garak 14. … and Morn!
DO YOU USE THE VOICES OF THE REAL ACTORS?
 
 
 

The following actors from the series have lent their voices to The Fallen:

1. Michael Dorn as "Worf" 5. Armin Shimerman as "Quark"
2. Nana Visitor as "Kira" 6. Andrew Robinson as "Garak"
3. Alexander Siddig as "Bashir" 7. Terry Farrell as "Jadzia Dax"
4. Rene Auberjonois as "Odo"  
Two very talented voice-actors have provided voices for the part of O'Brien and Sisko. (NOTE: These voices are contractually "interpretations of the characters" and not "imitations of the voices".)
1. Kevin Richardson as "Voice of Sisko" 2. Michael Gough as "Voice of O'brien"
ARE THE BORG IN IT?
 
 
 
No. However, we have introduced a race of bio-analogous marauders, known as the Grigari. As a race, the Grigari are sociopathic scavengers and pirates, obtaining items and knowledge from one culture to trade with another, doing whatever needs to be done to close a deal - from trading fairly to mass murder.
ARE THE DOMINION IN IT?
 
 
 

Yes. The player will have to combat the following:

1. Jem'Hadar Soldier 4. Vorta Male/Female (Treacherous creatures)
2. Jem'Hadar First 5. A Founder/Shape-shifter infiltrator
3. Jem'Hadar Heavy Assault (A new class)  
IS THERE MULTIPLAYER?
 
 
 
Our primary goal was to focus on the single-player experience. Therefore the released version of the game has no multiplayer features. At present we do not intend to add a multiplayer component as an add-on.
WHY 3RD PERSON?
 
 
 

Several reasons:

1. We wanted the player to see their cool character on screen- who cares if you're playing Worf if you only get to see his hand?
2. Also, we wanted to play up the navigational challenge in the game- grabbing hold of ledges, shimmying across, crawling through vents, etc. 3rd person is the best perspective for this.
3. We wanted to simulate the look of the show- first person is seldom used in television/film.
WILL THERE BE HAND-TO-HAND/MELEE COMBAT?
 
 
 
Yes there is hand-to-hand/melee combat. In particular, Worf's Bat'leth is a lot of fun!
WHICH RACES ARE IN THE GAME?
 
 
 
1. Bajorans 5. Founders
2. Klingons 6. Jem’Hadar
3. Cardassians 7. Grigari
4. Vorta  
WHAT PARAMOUNT REFERENCE MATERIAL DID YOU USE ?
 
 
 

1. Lots of videos!

4. Reference books
2. Piles of photographs and photo CDs. 5. Some fun toys!
3. Scripts.  
HOW WILL THE TRICORDER BE UTILIZED IN THE GAME?
 
 
 

1. Proximity map for life forms and other significant entities.

2. Scanning tool provides information on life forms, etc.- including critical data for compromising force fields.
3. Guidance system points to direction of key areas/objectives.
