### 2/5 — good concept

*2025-12-24, version 1.14*

this game is a great concept, but it does not show you how many units you have selected at once, so you cannot do accurate strategies in taking suns. it is all guesswork.

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2025-11-10, version 1.14*

I downloaded this game 10 years ago and still love it, i replay the levels all the time, my only complaint is that there isn’t more. I use this game when at lectures or listening to audio media, i have adhd so i am very bad with listening activities without some additional stimuli, this game is perfect for those times. I would do anything for more levels please.

### 5/5 — 12 лет, до сих пор

*2025-10-14*

Скачал как то 12 лет назад и играю по сей день, и только сегодня официально все купил, все что в ней есть, до этого кучу раз проходил все уровни но с помощью джеила все покупал, в итоге спустя столько времени она как сначала так до конца остаеться лучшей игрой, простота, музыка, дизайн, все на 5 из 5

### 5/5 — Great mechanics that I keep coming back to

*2025-09-22, version 1.14*

I first played Auralux years ago and it’s probably the the game i come back to the most. It had simple game mechanics that still challenge you. As a plus, the game is not riddled with ads like so many other mobile games, allowing you to actually play the game.

### 5/5 — 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

*2025-09-12, version 1.14*

This is hands down my favorite game of all time. I always come back to this game.

### 5/5 — Great

Gracias

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-07-12, version 1.14*

An excellent game - unique, and very well designed. It’s both relaxing and exciting at the same time. Well done.

### 5/5 — Found it!

*2025-07-07, version 1.14*

After discovering this game on Android and then moving to IOS I forgot the name of this game. I finally get to play this strategic time killer. It’s so fun commanding units to overtake a 3 way free for all.

### 5/5 — Diferente

*2025-06-24, version 1.14*

La propuesta es sencilla y funciona. Tienes que planear e invadir pensando únicamente en puntos de luz!!! Es increíble que enganche, pero lo hace

### 5/5 — Muy bueno

*2025-05-24, version 1.14*

Me encanta por lo entretenido

### 5/5 — I. LOVE. THIS. GAME.

Best game I have ever played. In my life. 10/10. No explanation, best game ever.

### 4/5 — Bien mais …

*2025-05-17, version 1.14*

Le jeu est bien mais il est abandonné par ses créateurs une dernière Maj offrant le ou certains contenus de la boutique aurait été bienvenu

### 5/5 — Closest game to Lego Battle Orders

*2025-04-21, version 1.14*

I love this game concept. Reminds me of one of my favourite Lego games. Battle Orders. AMAZING 🙌🏻

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-05-11, version 1.14*

The bots will always team up against you. Even when it strategically makes no sense.

### 1/5 — Purchased package not transferred after reinstalling the game

*2026-04-25, version 1.14*

After uninstalling and installing the game again all purchased packages disappeared without option to add it back.

### 1/5 — Genuinely unfair

*2025-08-23, version 1.14*

The bots know exactly what to do and they literally calculate what to do next making it unfair, but also it’s so unfair that that bots not only do 2x more damage than u but also have not a slight but a big off chance that the bots just start teaming on u, this isn’t strategy is is rng

### 1/5 — Seriously frustrated

*2025-07-06, version 1.14*

Played and beat all of the first game - which was very challenging and great simple idea but challenging game!  Second version frankly is just b.s!  I’ve played through every level and beat it but playing through to beat best times and u kick the extra levels now and it’s impossible!   I’ve completed two constellations and frankly I’m disappointed!  You’ve made this second version impassable which makes me wonder if there in fact are any extra he’s to unlock as these cannot be beaten anymore!  I had hoped you had corrected it but coming back to do another play through and it’s the same issues!   Sad really as the first version was excellent I loved it! Second is just dissatisfaction

### 1/5 — Impossible

*2025-06-05, version 1.14*

Corona on Nova mode is impossible. I’ve been able to beat it on the sequel. This level needs to be fixed.

### 1/5 — Too difficult

*2024-07-23, version 1.14*

I remember years ago this game was fun but now I can’t even beat the first “easy” level. Time to uninstall..

### 1/5 — Mode rapide payant ??

*2023-11-25, version 1.14*

Je joue à ce jeu depuis sa sortie il y’a pas mal d’années maintenant ayant eu un élan de nostalgie j’ai réinstallé je suis étonnant que le mode rapide soit devenue payant, il y a encore quelques mois ce n’étais pas le cas, le jeu perd son charme avec sa lenteur sans nom

### 1/5 — Way too slow!

*2023-11-25, version 1.14*

Without purchasing the “speed package” this game is so slow it will put you to sleep playing it.

### 1/5 — Ridiculously difficult

*2022-07-08, version 1.14*

Maybe there is some secret to “discover” — but this game is ridiculously slow and difficult. The AI is aligned to attack the human player suicidally.

### 1/5 — Slow

*2021-06-25, version 1.14*

Paying to make the game a playable speed is super lame.

### 5/5 — Best. Game. Ever

*2026-05-26*

No ads, amazing visuals, and the computer opponent is really engaging- not impossibly clever or stupid; just perfect. I’mma buy the packs when I finish all the free levels. 10/10 game.

Eins meiner absoluten Favoriten, ich lade es immer mal wieder runter und spiele ein wenig, trotz mehrfachen durchspielen bin ich immer wieder begeistert

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-01-04, version 1.14*

I never leave a review on games but this is perfect so simple, not littered with adds, and I’ve been entertained for years. Goated experience 10/10
