Star Trek™: Bridge Crew, playable in both VR and non-VR, will immerse you in the Star Trek universe. The game puts you and your friends in the heart of the U.S.S. Aegis.
Your mission: explore a largely uncharted sector of space known as The Trench, in hopes of locating a suitable new home world for the decimated Vulcan populace. The Klingon Empire is also active in the region, and their purpose is a threat to the Federation’s plans.
Make strategic decisions and coordinate actions with your crew to complete the mission.
In co-op, you can form a crew of four players to serve in the roles of Captain, Helm, Tactical and Engineer. In addition to a dynamic storyline, the game features an “Ongoing Missions” mode, procedurally generating missions for countless hours of Solo and Co-op adventure.
In Star Trek™: Bridge Crew, you’ll need more than just individual skill to overcome the challenges; communication, trust, and close crew coordination are the keys to victory.

Probably how the game should have been released IMO. Good game for multiplayer if you've not tried it.
From what I've seen of it, the game-play mechanics themselves seem incredibly simplistic, relying mostly on having good communication rather than any actual skill. Is there much depth to it, or is it mostly VR gimmick?

Umm.. as far as it goes. You play as either one role, or as Captain, multirole if you use AI crew and don't want to die. This really isn't a very good single player game though, with a good crew who understand this is: a) A Game. b) Star Trek. c) Not particularly indepth - Then the game can be an absolute blast.
Unfortunately, if any crew member do not understand any of the above, it'll be a futile experience, as you absolutely need all 4 players to at least take things a little bit seriously if you want to actually win a few games.
For example, the Captain has to actually listen to the crew, while communicating clear commands. The Engineer needs to keep the captain informed of what's going on with power and shields, and Tactical needs to not just shoot everything in sight. Helm needs to understand how to fly the ship and not just do their own thing.
More importantly, everyone needs to understand that is IS just a game, and mistakes will happen - if taken a little seriously, the teamwork experience is pretty good.
The game boils down to randomly generated missions based on all those in the small campagin, which are actually quite good. Obviously, after a while you kinda know what to expect, but the randomness doed keep things slightly interesting. It's only Klingons that are the enemy, which is probably the game's biggest flaw, it's heavily based on combat - however you do get the opportunity to make daring rescues - transporting civilians with shields down while under fire is pretty intense stuff, for example.
Personally, my main issue is that your ship is made of paper. A few shots and your shields collapse and take forever to come back. I hear something about the TOS Enterprise being sturdier, but its a LOT more difficult to play as you don't have fancy touchscreen controls - but it's good for nostalga and challenge.
IF you have friends who can set aside reality for a bit, this game is absolutely worth the asking price.

Follow me on Twitter if you feel like it... @kaltern
also,even if the rift gets cheaper,i wouldn´t buy it myself since the vive seems way,way better at everything (controls specially).
Using that steamlink thingy,you could stream the game to your android phone and use one of those 7bucks "slide your phone in" vr-lookalikes and play for 5 mins before the phone gets hotter than a peace of coal. thats ghetto-VR,right up my alley so to speak
