There is a version in the bsdgames package in Debian¹, IIRC it has been there as long as I've been using Debian (many moons ago!) and I'm pretty sure it was in RedHat with a similar issue name back then too, so probably still is. Not sure how true to any other version it is, for there have been many, but there will be a source package (and links to upstream of it is still active) to play with for this implementation at least. -- [1] https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/bsdgames https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/bsdgames

The game talked about here is apparently based on "Super Star Trek", which has some extended ideas on top of regular "Trek". This page has an ANSI C implementation of "Super Star Trek", and (somewhat dated) ports to Linux, Windows, MacOS, etc: https://almy.us/sst.html https://almy.us/sst.html

  The Debian version is BSD Trek, which was also a SST-like extension of Trek. Sounds like BSD Trek and SST diverged around 1978: http://www.catb.org/~esr/super-star-trek/ http://www.catb.org/~esr/super-star-trek/ That link's from Eric S. Raymond himself, who has a (still maintained!) GitLab repo for SST2K, under a BSD license: https://gitlab.com/esr/super-star-trek https://gitlab.com/esr/super-star-trek That link also mentions Jason Shankel's OpenTrek, which was a GNU GPL-licensed, cross-platform, TNG-flavored port of SST in rudimentary 3D, ca. 1995-1999: https://web.archive.org/web/20070210032231/http://shankel.best.vwh.net/opentrek.html https://web.archive.org/web/20070210032231/http://shankel.be...
