This is a fun adventure that allows the players to explore their characters' backstories, particularly the career events they chose during character creation. This requires the Gamemaster to put in a little work ahead of time to make sure everyone remembers exactly which career events they chose. The Gamemaster also has to be prepared to come up with backstories for supporting cast characters if the players choose to send them on the away team (mine did).
My recommendation is for the Gamemaster to emphasize the roleplaying and character development elements of the story and let the action take a backseat. It's a well-written and coherent scenario that requires some prep work for the Gamemaster, and the group might have to invent some character backstories on the spot, but that can be a lot of fun too.
