Astrologaster App Reviews

I enjoyed this odd game.

This is one of the most delightful games I’ve ever encountered—a marvelous deep dive into Elizabethan England. The dialogue is absolutely hilarious, with great voice acting (the many different British accents are to die for), and a splendid Renaissance soundtrack too, made up of beautiful songs with really funny lyrics about game characters. So much work has gone into this, it’s amazing... Though of course the most important thing is that it’s just a blast to play—I can’t stop laughing! ;)

Delightful game so far, full of subtle humor, but the astrology is often wrong. Clearly the developers think astrology is a joke, but they could have put a little more effort into the planet details, e.g., Uranus, Neptune and Pluto were unknown in 1592, Jupiter is not exalted in Sagittarius, Mars is not exalted in Scorpio, and Mercury is not exalted in Libra, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

I absolutely loved this game and am glad I came across it on itch.io. I finished it within hours of downloading it. The concept, story& astrological theme is brilliant. The pop up/3d art is so well done. Well worth the $5 spent. I look forward to seeing more like this in the App Store. It’s by far the best game I’ve paid for.

Oh boy, where to start? First of all, I loved it. If you’re a fan of English comedy a la Blackadder, and English history, get it. Essentially, you play as Simon Foreman and have to give astrology ‘readings’ to 15 different clients, following their stories while attempting to obtain your medical license. I think the price is fair, for what is an extremely original and unique game, with fantastic voice acting and beautiful animations. The story is interesting and you will likely want to replay, to

I just finished completing the game for the third time and have thoroughly enjoyed it each time (although I’m now convinced it is impossible to receive a letter of recommendation from Ricardo Ferraro). The amount and quality of effort that went into this production is amazing! I hope this ap inspires others to create in this same format - and, better yet, Astrologaster 2!!!

thanks for the history lesson as well!

This is hidden gem on the App Store, an exceptional use of the app form to humorously recreate the life of a 16th century unlicensed doctor. It is, by turns, witty, sophisticated, thoughtful, and poignant, and contains some of the best writing, voice acting, and original music in gaming. While the gameplay itself is underwhelming (mainly picking choices with slight guidance), the story and characters are a delight to play through. A true treasure, and definitely worth your money if you love s

I accidentally brushed the screen looking at options. No way to undo mistake. You need a ‘confirm selection’ step. Other way is fun “

Really an excellent game. All lines are voiced (well!) And the art is relevant and beautiful. This game has the side effect of teaching you a bit about astrology, if you are interested in that sort of thing. I wholeheartedly recommend this one!

I pretty much snickered my way through this. So clever, and just a complete pleasure to play!

The game is a lot of fun and funny. Very casual game play and great story line. Graphics are wonderful. I had some initial issues with crashing but the very engaged dev team fixed the, within a few days. Thank you!

Huzzah for this new game! The lack of interesting fare in the App Store did cause me to involuntarily chunder! Methinks this game is verily most miraculous, innit? Huzzah!

It’s been a while since a game made me cry. Good work yall

Once again I have been duped by the App Store’s “game of the day” story. $5 is not cheap for a game so I read the reviews, which all said the game is fun and funny. But..... it’s not a game at all. More like a “choose your own adventure” book.... You sit through some singing an “funny banter” then choose A or B. No way to know if you got it right or wrong, or if there even IS a right or wrong..... after ten or so of these exchanges I can’t seem to find the point of the game. I thought something
