First of all... Star Trek base? ...Federation base, you mean? Is this a mirror universe base or an original universe one? What timeframe are you thinking of pulling from (and for that matter are you thinking of pulling from the original franchise or the reboot?) Will characters be able to find shuttle craft to get them up to operating standards? Are the wormholes on planet or off?
I like the idea of exploring the episodic nature of the Trek franchise, but I don't think you have a great way of approaching mirror universe characters--if anything it seems to me you'd have a more Trek-themed mirror universe if you went Entranceway-style where you had an original and a mirror both... that way there's always one to kill off later. (Let's be real here that's how the writers treated much of the mirror 'verse chars in the show.)
There are other terms thrown around here that don't seem to match up with the arctic planet outpost. Warp windows and worm holes suggest that there are going to be ships involved. The rest (the voices for example) sound like some kind of Energy Being's doing; Q or lesser assholes mashing genres together for... whatever reason? I'd like to see more trek-based challenges than seeing cross-genre baddies, at least unless there is a good reason for Pyramid Head to be stalking the halls. There are plenty of good examples from the TNG franchise alone if you're looking for creepy-pasta one-offs.
Currently what I'm seeing is a generic horror game with Star Trek terms thrown around. Part of what made Star Trek great (and sometimes terrible) was its ability to weave a strong narrative together to build on the Trek universe. If this is an abandoned Federation base on a freezing planet, why is it abandoned? Is it in the Romulan neutral zone? Was it destroyed by Jem'hadar? Is it somewhere in the Delta or Gamma quadrant, years (and lightyears) from any story we know? What happens if a genre-savvy (and knowledgeable) character apps in like Kirk(s) or Picard or Sisko or Janeway or any of their crew? What if someone apped in Q?
TL;DR: Nerd here loves star trek, likes the premise and would like to see more polish and direction to make it feel more like the franchise's setting, fears a generic horror game with the name 'star trek' thrown on.
