Star Trek Roleplaying Game is a role-playing game (RPG) set in the Star Trek universe using the CODA System rules^[1][2][3] and first published by Decipher, Inc. in 2002. When Decipher acquired the rights to create the RPG, they also acquired most of the gaming studio from Last Unicorn Games. However, the Decipher game system is dissimilar to the one that Last Unicorn published. Instead, the system is similar to Wizards of the Coast's d20 System but uses 2D6 to resolve actions.^[1][3]
