Bug on IPhone XV
There’s a bug that don’t allow me to change the config of level difficulty, it only stays at level easy and the same as the ship skins, it doesn’t save the config I select…
Stupid small font on iPhone 12
Ridiculously small font on iPhone screen! I am sick of developers start rip off iPhone users using shrunk down tablet UIs. Not worth the ‘literal’ headache from playing trying to read in it. Glad it was only 99 cents wasted. Deleted.
Great game
Hours of fun

Handheld 4X
This is the best game of it’s kind that I have ever played on iPhone!
Solid MOO2 inspired 4x - with a little more could be awesome
I was a huge fan of the Masters of orion 2 game when i was a kid, and have been looking for something similar. This is a solid 4x game inspired by MOO and similar games. It needs some polish, some additional help / explanation screens, but it is on the right path. Hope the dev puts the time in to finish this. It is already playable and very enjoyable w lots of replay value. With a little more time it could go from good to really great. Keep working on it pls. Good value even in its current form.

Master of Orion 1.5
This is a relatively straightforward 4X game set to the tune of galactic empires duking it out over ever-decreasing expansion opportunities. You’re offered a good amount of control to balance the push-pull of building defenses or new colonies, versus scientific advancement or exploring. Each new game offers quite a few options to change up what sort of galaxy you’re dealt, nice for replay.
The UI is unorthodox but after some play I got mostly used to it, such as the way it shows tiers of screens as a sequence of buttons so that I can get right to the view I want. The colony screen could use tweaking or improvement; some information I wanted to know like colony income vs maintenance, I just couldn’t find. I also couldn’t quite wrap my head around automated building and never had the courage to leave it to its own devices.
In all I’m more than satisfied with this app for its asking price and look forward to seeing how it improves.

Excellent premise, but unrefined
First of, there is a lack of no-microtransaction games out there and I'm glad to say this one is truly free of any p2w mechanics.
The Good: The is is a great strategy game that has a lot of depth and different pathways to explore.
The Bad: There is a certain level of refinement that is expected from a paid game and this game is pretty cluttered. Everything is a button with a loosely-related icon, no text descriptions. This leads to a very steep learning curve at the beginning. There are still some actions I feel like there should be, but I'm still not sure if I'm missing in the sea of buttons or they don't exist. Secondly, there is a whole lot of clicking for each round going on that really should be condensed down somehow. Thirdly, I did find that the audio over bluetooth frequently degrades into nothing over a few minutes.
Should you buy it? Its hard to say no to a 99 cent price tag, but if you are looking to spend I'd probably say find something more refined, otherwise this is still enjoyable and way more enjoyable than all the in-app purchase junk out there.

Fun Numbers/Sim Game… but..
It’s a game that the only way to learn to play to is to already know how to play it. :D
The design of the game is not intuitive and there’s not enough guide pop ups to guide you. The guides it does have are not very helpful and lack detail.
There’s some guide videos linked in the game but they don’t really explain the mechanics of the strategy. I’ll be honest, I had no idea what the point of the game was after idk how many attempts and clicking everything.
Once you spend a good hour or two pushing buttons you kind of start to learn what the point of the game is and how to play it.
Glad it wasn’t expensive

Great game
Although it has a long way to go, it is still incredible
