* GeneticEngineeringIsTheNewNuke: The Precursors were apparently masters of it; in the ruins you'll find a gene sequencing device capable of generating new creatures from scratch. You need to combine genetic traits from different creatures to solve a puzzle. This is also what destroyed the Precursors, as their genetic manipulation ended up accidentally creating the Xenophores.
* HordeOfAlienLocusts: The Precursors created the Seed to evolve themselves to the next level of existence, but due to a bug in its programming, all it does is create Xenophores which are generated in exponential numbers and kill everything else besides themselves.
* InterspeciesAdoption: Sovak was raised by Vulcans; he's not unemotional, but does try to be a little more stoic than average when interacting with others. He can also perform the Vulcan Nerve Pinch, and is noted as one of the few humans capable of doing so.

* SuperweaponSurprise: After Sovak stops the S'ona rebels, Anij unearths a Baku starship so you and Picard can chase after the Romulans. It's [[RagnarokProofing in perfect working order after being buried for several centuries]], and while it ultimately proves to be unable to defeat a Romulan Warbird, it manages to last long enough for the ''Enterprise'' to show up and save the day.

!!Star Trek Hidden Evil contains examples of:
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: The leader of the S'ona rebels has a deflector shield that makes him completely immune to your phaser. You need to shoot him a few times with a S'ona disruptor to defeat him.
* EvilIsNotAToy: Once you get far enough into the Romulan space station, you'll find the Romulans being slaughtered by the Xenophore creatures they were trying to resurrect from the past.
* FixedCamera: The game uses ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil'' style tank controls and fixed camera angles.
* GeneticEngineeringIsTheNewNuke: The Precursors were apparently masters of it; in the ruins you'll find a gene sequencing device capable of generating new creatures from scratch. You need to combine genetic traits from different creatures to solve a puzzle. This is also what destroyed the Precursors, as their genetic manipulation ended up accidentally creating the Xenophores.
* InterspeciesAdoption: Sovak was raised by Vulcans; he's not unemotional, but is a little more stoic than average. He can also perform the Vulcan Nerve Pinch, and is noted as one of the few humans capable of doing so.
* InvincibleMinorMinion: The flying Xenophore creatures that guard the second Seed in the ''Enterprise'' engine room are invincible and fire homing projectiles that can kill you in just a few shots. Attempting to fight them just results in your death. [[spoiler: You need to activate localized energy shields in Engineering to keep them out while you perform tasks there.]]
* RenegadeSplinterFaction: The Admiral in charge of the Romulans trying to resurrect the Xenophores is mentioned as having gone rogue and been disavowed by their High Command. Most of his men are JustFollowingOrders as disavowed or not he's still an Admiral and questioning his authority is a good way to get shot.
* ResourcesManagementGameplay: There are a finite number of hyposprays in the game to restore your health, although your health does get restored to full at the beginning of each chapter. It's recommended to save as many as possible for the last couple of levels, which involve prolonged slogs against many powerful enemies.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: In the final level it's revealed that the Dr. Nadal that the ''Enterprise'' rescued and brought aboard was a Xenophore Slayer in disguise. It's never mentioned what happened to the real Nadal, though he was likely [[KillAndReplace killed and replaced]] by the Xenophores while you were busy destroying the Seed.
* WholePlotReference: The game's basic plot is almost the same as that of ''Star Trek: Elite Force II'', involving a Romulan conspiracy to resurrection a dangerous weaponized alien hive race.
