The Badgey Directive is a Lower Decks mobile app for iOS and Android.
Description[]
- Finally, after yet another tedious duty roster, the Lower Decks crew of the USS Cerritos is ready to party at a Zebulon Sisters concert! Tendi’s even more excited, as this’ll be her first Chu Chu Dance! But first, they need to get through routine training exercises on the holodeck, which Boimler has been entrusted to organize. Boimler? With power? When has that ever been good?
- Impatient to get to the dance, the crew try to end the simulation only to find the Cerritos’ computer has been hijacked by rogue AI Badgey. He’s locked them in the holodeck and deactivated all safety protocols – so now Boimler, Tendi, Rutherford and Mariner must work through Star Trek stories, both familiar and new, so they can return to the real world. But be careful – if they don’t succeed, they’ll die for real. And even worse: they’ll miss the party!
Doctor Who crossover description[]

Summary[]
Log entries[]
- Captain's log, supplemental.
- We may have found our first glimmer of hope and the key to escaping from Badgey's endless torment. ("Measure of a Badge")
- Captain's log.
- Badgey is sending us on what should have been an easy supply run. But because Mariner had a go at him, we're starting a lot further away. ("Threshold My Beer")
- Captain's log.
- Badgey's new drill has us tracking down a missing Maquis vessel. I think I know where this is going. ("Tendi The Caretaker")
- Captain's log.
- Badgey has once again given us a grueling drill. Second contact is a delicate and unpredictable process. We're en route to Galadonia, to repeat one of our first missions. But this time, I've obtained clearance to officially offer relief from the famine. ("Boimler, His Eyes Red")
- Captain's log, stardate holo-knows.
- The cube's pursuit remains relentless. I know it's time to call in some expert help. We can't outrun the unidentified flying object and it's clearly tracking us. Thus, the only conclusion I can draw is that the cube is an enemy probe. ("The Vindicta Maneuver")
- Acting Science Officer's log.
- We've received a request for medical assistance. It's an extinction level emergency. I've locked in a course, max warp. ("Fear Doctor")

Crossovers[]
Doctor Who and The Badgey Directive crossed over for a four-day event beginning on International Friendship Day, 1 August 2024. The Tenth Doctor, River Song, K-9, and a Dalek visited the USS Cerritos in the event "Who Can It Be Now?". In a concurrent story, Brad Boimler and Beckett Mariner were pulled through a temporal anomaly into Epic Games' Doctor Who: Lost in Time mobile game event "A Trek to Skaro".
Background[]
- The game was updated to reflect Badgey's apparent death in LD episode: "A Few Badgeys More", with the AI being revived inadvertently from computer storage.
- Stories take place prior to the lower deckers' promotions to lieutenant, but after SNW episode: "Those Old Scientists", as the characters recalled having traveled through the time portal.
