What's New in Alien Tribe 2

4.1

January 7, 2021

By removing the savepoint feature, we wanted to make the game more challenging. Unfortunately, we found that players did not like it. For this reason, we are reactivating the savepoint feature with this update.

Game is super buggy. Is it maintained?

I’m trying to follow the tutorial on iPhone XR, and there is a lot that doesn’t work. The main thing that’s bugging me is this quick access toolbar in in the left of the screen does not do a lot that it’s supposed to. I can’t remove anything from it by holding it down like the tutorial says, I can’t drag anything to or from it to move things. I don’t have a lot of faith in this old game.

Difficulty seems to be the worst part of the game

They need to change the difficulty levels because it is way too hard even on very easy. i’m used to 4X type space games and this is horrible

Meh...

Way too repetitive. Got boring too fast, maybe like 2 hrs. Not worth the money. Much better games out there.

Repair Station?

Games good but some things aren’t intuitive and there’s no I nfo out there.

For instance Repair Base. I want it. Don’t know how to get the option to build it. Can’t even find it through google.

Researching techs..doesn’t show what level your tech is until you try to upgrade it.
