** The soundtrack of the first game was composed by Ron Jones, who was fired from ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' [[WhatAnIdiot because the producers thought his music was "too epic".]] Highlights include the badass [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAQaOYWX82I Romulan march]], the tribal-retro [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQddUINNyHg Lyran theme]], and pretty much [[https://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=E5BBA150F52D8A88 everything else.]]
* ''TabletopGame/AKlingonChallenge'': The game actually manages to have better music than a lot of contemporary ''Star Trek'' episodes. Stand-outs include the theme played when Kavok beams aboard the ''Enterprise'' and hijacks the ship, and the ''Film/{{Jaws}}''-like theme that slowly builds up in intensity as the ''Enterprise'' approaches the Klingon homeworld during the final five or so minutes of the game.

Added DiffLines:

* ''VideoGame/StarTrekOnline'':
** Most of the music in the game is merely okay. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-G0BSdpj-3s And then you start fighting Romulans]].
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_INzWxfJ8mo main theme]] starts off with a classic ''Trek'' feel, then halfway through kicks off into a rousing orchestra piece that makes you want to jump into your ship and take on the whole galaxy.
** ''Legacy of Romulus'' has a '''truckload''' of great music, as befits its status as the game's GrowingTheBeard expansion pack. Particular highlights:
*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDoOdxBrhW0 The primary theme for New Romulus.]] You'll hear this primarily in the Staging Area, but you can hear it anywhere, since it's ''long''.
*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDnaFF8a4u4 The "Virinat theme"]] greets newbie Romulans and is the theme of the colony while it's at peace. Later on, it also serves as cruising/ambient music for when you're doing various heroic things as a Romulan character - since you never forgot Virinat and are carrying on its legacy.
*** The already awesome Romulan battle theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pa6lgLQ79Ro gets new variations]] that are usually played when fighting the Tal Shiar or Elachi as a Romulan.
** The 2017 First Contact Day probably gave players the best music to launch model Phoenix Warp Rockets to: Steppenwolf's "Magic Carpet Ride", the same song used in ''Film/StarTrekFirstContact''.
