One of the best mobile games!

Addictive simple yet brilliant gameplay. Quick games, perfect for the medium. As far as being an updated arcade classic it's just right, with the nice flourish of the vector graphic aesthetic (which the original arcade game was not but that's okay here) refined even more strikingly. This game works particularly well by touch and actually improves upon the original's controls. It's right up there with Atari's Asteroids mobile remake. While not the case for console games, the best arcade gam

Missile command

Love this game but once you get so hi in standings the game takes cheap shots and flies through shots like they aren’t there. Come on now.

Additional Upgrades Needed

Please add some additional upgrades or new weapons to use points for. I love this game but want something to keep working towards.

Nice rendition of Missile Command BUT…

I love the updated control system for missile command. It’s hard to time the missiles from three different sources. I like the game “Cosmic Cannonade” better because the missiles come from a single source so it’s much more satisfying timing that missile to hit the target.

Pure gaming

Excellent translation touch screen. Art and music is on point. Satisfying. Unique. This is a classy mobile game. And would be just as classy in an arcade. So glad there aren’t obnoxious purchases to make, screens to waste my time, and other non-skill-based garbage to dilute the things I want in a game: me playing it.

Nicely packaged classic

Don’t forget to keep it updated Atari!

Glitch

Found a glitch. Suddenly the program stayed in the slo-mo mode after hitting the “T”. It was like shooting fish in a barrel. Stayed that way for maybe 30 minutes while I ran up the score, then it reverted to normal speed. It’s a guess that those super high scores are from hackers. Yeah, the programmers need to fix or get rid of the “R” that usually ends the game.

“R” is Game Over

Hit the “R” and you can’t shoot missiles. That definitely seems like a bug and should be fixed.

Nostalgia

Atari needs to bring back more of the classics. To the guy that didn’t figure out the R power up - it is rapid fire - you have to hold your finger down to use it. One change I would make is perhaps getting a score multiplier if you hit more than one incoming projectiles with one shot. Or perhaps have a score multiplier that resets if you miss.

Dave Theurer's Classic Arcade Game

I've been playing Missile Command in it's various incarnations since 1980, and it remains in my top 10 list of the greatest games of all time. The mobile version is actually quite playable, thanks to the phone's ubiquitous touch screen. The original used analog trackball control, which hasn't been very accurately reproduced in most other ports over the years. This version solves that problem and creates an addictive twitch mobile experience. I like it. I think Mr. Theurer would be pleased with t

Great

This is a great port of ataris famous games, this game is updated for the modern age but still has the same arcade fun of the original wich is over 440 years old

Plays Well on Touch

The control mechanics are good and the game is gas on my iPhone 13 Pro in 2021. Thanks to the dev team for doing a good job!

iPhone 13 pro issues

Shooting doesn’t work right on iPhone 13 otherwise favorite game

Epic

I love this game it is fun aracde game and it is fun and has new power ups and at mode it’s cool

Really good

I really enjoy this game! Works fine without any issues.

This game is amazing. Play it!!

It’s like you remember it in the Atari, but with the agility of a touchscreen, as compared to using a joystick to move the aim cursor. It gets intense!!

So much fun!

This is a great take on an Atari classic. Perfect to play when I need a quick break throughout the day.

OMG - Awesome!

Has the feel of the old Missile Command game. Never gets old!

It brings back great memories

I loved this game back then, playing on my Atari 2600 console and now on my iPhone. Thank you.

Not impressed

It's very basic. I expected more graphics.

High Score Bug

Great game except for the bug that won’t update the high score. Numerous times I have set new high scores that do not update and are lost the next time the game is restarted. Very Disappointing!!!

Love it, needs a chill out mode

Great reimagining of the classic. I would absolutely LOVE if you added a chill out mode that doesn’t need to score but you can set the speed and difficulty to just chill and play for a sold 30 minutes or more.

Funnnn

Great game. Annoying ads only after u lose three lives which is very nice. Great game. Wish it had different modes or missions...I maxed out all my abilities within a few hours. Now I’m starting to lose interest. Fun game.

Addicting game

I loved this game in the early Atari days. The only issue I have with this game so far is the screen not responding on my iPad 11 Pro when I get the R power up. Other than that, this game is great!

Fun game... still some bugs

Really like the look of this game, the sounds and music. Still seeing a bug with the “refresh” boost... as it seems to effect the ability to shoot missiles.

Super fun

It’s a great reboot of the original

Awesome retro!

Ohhh, I’m having flashbacks of 80’s coin-op games and the first Tron movie! Builds upon the first Missile Command coin-op and makes it even better. Fun retro feel to it and the background music is awesome!

Great game yet it needs a bit more of love

Certainly you can’t beat a classic however I would suggest that the power ups of this game should be upgradable too, overall solid game :)

Charged more than listed

Great game from the past. Well done. However it says $1.99 to purchase but charged me $4.98. No sure what our how that happened.

Great upgrade of an old classic

8 Negative User Reviews for Missile Command: Recharged

It’s really bad

Maxed out in one day of playing. The ill placed pause button gets in the way of legit playing field- super annoying and sloppy design.

You like a game with no sound? This is it!

Tired of sound in your game? Well this is the game for you! It has no sound... even when turned on.

Game starts, and already I can’t shoot

I can see running out of missiles, but even after 20 seconds, all of sudden it won’t let me fire missiles? This game is a misfire.

Way too hard

Loved missile command as a kid. However this game is just frustrating. Gets way too hard too quick....

Good implementation but flawed recharge delay

Game gets good and then forces you to wait 15 minutes to play. This seems counterproductive. Deleted this app.

Looks good but gets too hard too fast

You can play for a little and then it just get impossible. Then you have to upgrade and restart. I get the idea of grinding but I mean keep thing slow for a least a little and let people have fun.

Updates

This game need updates. Got boring quick.

Fun game!

But there is zero need to access my camera.
