The premise for this episode is something that I would imagine being used in a Saturday morning cartoon.
Not to say it's all bad. The scene of the actors performing alien hopscotch had me belly laughing with Sisko's 'quiet voice' choice.
I am a big fan of 'dad sisko' scenes. Ben and Jake have a good chemistry and that comes through in the performance. Ben --- you are a good dad!
I can imagine this episode would work better if the characters had a few more seasons worth of development and perhaps a more engaging in-game obstacle --- perhaps of a psychological nature? That could have served the purpose of adding some depth to the characters and telling the major plot arc at the same time.
What's up with Starfleet Officer guy? I have watched DS9 before and I keep forgetting about this guy. Did they have a plan for this guy? Was he a big trek fan and they just decided to write a part for him? He doesn't fit well into this show at this point and to be brutally honest he looks like he would be a capable mall cop but not a chief of security on a starship.
