STILL A CLASSIC (July 2022)

BUY IT RIGHT NOW… LOOK at the ratings. This 4x classic is heavily inspired by a 90’s classic “Master of Orion” In my mind though, this is our Stellaris! A shame… no upcoming publishers or game investors have not looked at this game, and reached out to the developer (Rocco) He is amazing with his community, always engaging - would he had… had the backing, this would have been a large platform bringing profits, easily could had fit in an esports type setting as well, focusing on the batt

Such a great game!

Classic 4X galactic conquest game. The closest you can get to the old Master of Orion PC game on a mobile device. Best part of all: it isn’t some pay-to-play, micro transaction nightmare the way every other app out there is. Thank you, thank you, thank you to the developers. We need more games like this.

Old school fun

This really is a fun game if you are into old school, turn based, space simulation like Master of Orion. It has depth but is still accessible. Played for many hours. No adds. No upcharges. Good replay value. Well worth the game cost.

Excellent

I remember playing this game a long time ago, I’m very glad it still works! Classic scifi 4x on mobile, can’t beat that!

One of my favorites

Glad to see the update! FYI, viewing the battle reliably crashes the app.

Fun space 4x

There is a learning curve involved as there is with most games of this type, but after you figure out what’s going on, it’s really a very nicely done and detailed 4x space game for the iPad tablet. In that regard I find it very enjoyable.

Spectacular game but..

To start, I love this game. I’m a Stellaris player and this is game is a dream come true on my phone. Good level of depth of systems and it’s clear a lot of love went into this. I also can’t overstate how much I love the Star Trek inspiration for the human ship design. I have on concern and it’s the fact that my game will reliably crash if I watch a large battle between a large number of ships that fire a big salvo of proton torpedoes. It happens every time. Its a drag to build up my fleet

The best 4x

Awesome game that is still updated. Please support full screen for new devices.

Very Good Adaptation

If you mistakenly build two planetary extensions for one planet slot. The game will glitch from that point onward. If you are enjoy that scenario then be careful of what you build because the game won’t catch it.

Outstanding game that passes the test of time

This game is awesome! Highly customizable, great soundtrack, and so much replay value . I love it and hope support for it doesn’t end.

Absolute Greatest Sim Game - NO ADS OR PURCHASES

Pick a race. Build a colony. Fight your neighbors. What’s better? Best part is no marketing whatsoever! Love the game and have played it countless hours over the last few years. Still my favorite game on iPad. Only suggestion would be to allow more than 1 human player. Smooth, no glitches, and always challenging.

Great Games

Been looking for a space Grand strategy game for mobile for awhile. This is very well done, just wish you could change the names of the races lol

Simple but fun

Great tablet game that feels like Masters of Orion or Stellaris. Simple. Maybe too simple, but easily replayable many times

Love this game until last update

Latest update makes the build queue render incorrectly, with overlapping text pushed half way off the right of the display area. Queue management is not completely functional now, making the game too frustrating to play. Would be great if this would be fixed…

Galaxy screen not sorting

Returned to the game and discovered that the Galaxy screen is not working. It’s sorted Alphabetically by default and can’t be changed. Please fix.

Spying currently broken

Like the reviewer from February, the spying UI doesn’t work for me. Can’t move spies off an empire once placed there. iPad Air 2020 and iOS 15.5

Love the Game but Constantly Crashes

I love the game but it's very unstable. On my previous iPad it would crash maybe every ten minutes or so, which I could deal with. On my new M2 Air, once you get towards the end game, it crashes every other time I hit Next Turn. It becomes unplayable. I really hope that the developers do something to fix this problem. It's sad that I can't play a game that I love.
