Accessible except for a few issues
I think it's safe to say, I'm addicted to this game! I love how it is accessible to blind users. I myself am blind and am aloways on the look out for accessible games to play. I have a few recommendations though. The video rewards are not accessible. I can never close out of them. This goes for crafting kingdom as well. Sometimes the swiping isn't on point either. It jumps around if you are swiping like you usualy would. Also, I like doing the research projects. They are very useful since I'm in a higher level of the game. I have multiple research boosters in my invintory but when I go to click on one because I have a 12 hour project, it won't let me. It just continues to say disabled. Hopefully these issues can be fixed soon because I really love this game. Keep up the great work!Show lessThe cat princess 9320
Really love this game!
I am blind, and love this game! I am glad this is another game that I can play with one hand! Too many developers change their games to where I cannot play, and others that have similar conditions to cerebral palsy cannot enjoy them. So I am very glad that this iPhone game exists. Especially for those who cannot really enjoy other games… Like computer games as much. Thank you developers! Excellent job so far on accessibility.Show lesscutiestarlight
Great game
I love the game, and I love the gameplay. I love the sounds and I love the experience however I do not appreciate that I have watched over 20 videos to gain energy cells and have not been able to gain one through the videos. I am also having trouble with the boosts. Sometimes it does not activate after watching the video, and no matter what you were watching a video for, you lose the sound effects of the game once you’re done watching the video and there is no way to turn them on except for restarting the app and sometimes that does not even work. The video rewards are also hard, because sometimes there is no back button or way out of them, and without the ability to have voice on the screen tell me what button you’re pushing you do not know where the back button is and they are not always in the same spot for the video awards. I know that the video rewards are developed by other people, however I’m hoping that you can develop a format with them to where they can start putting the back button or an exit button somewhere on the top of the screen for those of us who are blind. I do love this game however, and I enjoy playing it but I wish I didn’t have to fight to get my energy cells. I should have at least 100 but have not been able to find any through the videos.Show lessJizmonian89
Very addictive
Sometimes I play this game for days straight without sleep LOLjerrielynn352
Good game, please make the costs not go up when buying more
It’s a good game but it gets to expensive to even ‘explore’ in this game and to build a new building please make it cost the same no matter how Much you build and you explore, thanks.core of the earth

Still beta software?
This is a fairly good game, but for me, VoiceOver says it’s beta software still. Is this true? As it is, I’m on HG61 and have no idea how to acquire crystals even though I attempt to explore the crystaline regeons. There are some, it appears, until I try installing the crystal extracter. VO informs me that crystals aren’t in the regeon, but they should be there. What’s that about? The music’s very good—far better than that for crafting kingdom. However, some of the sound effects are the same, not a bother though. I am not one for downloading beta software as a rule ... this being my acception, apparently. I wonder why the game’s still running on that platform, or is VO misinformed? Maybe, the aliens did somethings to its computer systems, ha ha! Keep up the good work, but make it more keyboard friendly/can’t use a bluetooth keyboard at all so have to swipe a lot on the phone. Also, fix the bugs noted here, and you’ll be going into orbit ... another joke there!Show lessAshleigh Peach
My opinions
First I just like to start off by saying, thank you so much forgetting this game accessible to blind people, it is very much appreciated.
However, there is one negative I have about the game, at the minute, there is a bug, in the tutorial, on the second planet, they tell you to up grade a building, but you only get two upgrades, which she use already on the first planet, and when you go to upgrade on the second planet, you can’t because you have none left.
This is very frustrating, and means you cannot buy any upgrade packs, because they are require energy cells, and in the beginning you don’t have enough energy cells.
This is why I keep coming back to the game and deleting it again, because at the same time it’s a good game, but then I delete the game again because this bug is it’s frustrating with this bug.
If this can be solved as soon as possible that would be very much appreciated.Show lessthe quirty quizar
Mostly Great Accessible Game!
I've really enjoyed this game so far, and accessibility is surprisingly good! It's a little confusing to navigate regions just with VoiceOver, to be honest, because there's no real sense of which regions are adjacent to one another unless you drag your finger slowly around the screen. I use my limited sight for this. Also, I've noticed that this and the dev's Crafting Kingdom have no notifications, so it's impossible to know when research is done, when storage is full, when automation or boosts have run out, etc without checking manually which is a bit of a pain. I typically forget to check, setting me back. If the devs could look into implementing a notification system that'd be amazing and I'd bump my review up a star!Show lessSeaSpray91
Overall this is a great game
This is a good game but there are some accessibility issues with the boosts. There are some videos for you have to turn voiceover off in order to get out of them. There’s one video in particular that even turn voiceover off does not work do you have to restart the whole app. If the video is for energy cells you don’t get them. If you restart the app you have to wait for the next video. Other than that I think this is a wonderful gameShow lessvvcyfjdq5)fzyf
