Fun game, buggy, but fun
This is my first game review and I’m going to be a bit critical, but only because I really enjoy wasting time with this game and I think just about anyone would...That said, I would give this game 4 stars for the sheer mindless boredom killer it is, you really don’t even have to be paying attention to move your thumb back and forth(which the wife unknowingly appreciates, as I’m able to simply lift my head from the game when something other than the game should have my attention. A little perk some other games don’t afford her, lol.) If you’ve made it this far might as well hear the gripes after the praise... I started this game and after many many hours into it, there was an apparent update(which was welcomed) that inadvertently required me to start from square one, no credit for all the ships I had spent so much time unlocking and upgrading, and while the new ship/power up upgrading is a bit easier than before, it’s still a shame to have lost quintillion’s and billion’s worth of upgrade time. I’ll have to agree with the previous review, still takes an inordinate amount of time to upgrade...which leads me to my only other gripe about the game, and it’s the same as in the first iteration...On numerous(think 50/50), when I press the button to watch an ad to either gain shield/increase income/double firepower, one of two things happen(keep thinking 50/50)...the button will turn grey and play no video, or, I sit through a 30 second ad for nothing to have given the reward for watching the ad. Which is also the same half chance if not worse odds when I log back in and it gives you the option to watch an ad to double the “while you were away” income, I’d say it’s a one in four chance you actually double the income while you were away(and yes, this is on a WiFi connection). Last, and probably most disheartening, is when I’ve mindlessly racked up billions, trillions, and quintillion’s actually playing and save up enough to upgrade a ship for a trillion a pop and the firepower doesn’t even increase(no they’re not max level, because when I save enough and upgrade again, I’m usually lucky enough to have it work the second or third time. And if they are max level, shame on you for allowing me to spend hard earned points, lol) I know I’m picking on a free to play game that allows you to spend money to make it easier and quicker, but spending money isn’t what I consider these talentless time obliterating games to be for. Big thumbs up to the dev for the style and I’ll continue to waste my waste-able time with it, but if your not into wasting time with only a hope of leveling up, maybe try one of their other more refined games. All in all a solid 3 stars, would change to 4 after some polishing up.

You’re basically held hostage to ads on this game. The banner across the top is easily ignored, but having an ad play every time I ‘collect’ the money, and slapping a $4 price tag on ad removal? No thanks.
3 Stars for fun. Lost 2 stars for price tag on ad removal.

Relatively good game for people that enjoy idle games but as many idle games have ben doing that I have noticed, is that ads pop up far to frequently for playing the game to be tolerable...unfortunately.
Slow progression but finally
A good idle game with no ads. A little slow to progress however.
