Ken Allen, producer: The gamer is expecting a plausible story line. Computer games have the highest possible quality of sound and graphics. We spared no expense. Brian Fargo, the president of Interplay Productions tells how Judgment Rights was made.

LN: The plot in Judgment rights is one familiar with science fiction fans.

 
Here I am taping over dialogues from the Judgment Rights script.

Unlike a movie or a television plot where there's only one outcome, a linear plotline if you will, in this interactive adventure I frequently have to read 2, 3 or sometimes even 4 alternative texts for the same situation. As the player makes decisions which direction the game scenario will take, the appropriate response will be played.  Recording and then preparing the over 13 000 separate lines of dialogue is the work of Craig Duman and his staff of sound engineers. ...

If you guide the crew of the Enterprise through the game, be gentle for we need them all back on Vulcan for the next adventure.
