Not able to play the game at all. ### 1/5 — Why *2025-12-13, version 1.1.3* I can’t get into the game every time I try and get to the game. It just kicks me out. ### 1/5 — It does nothing… *2025-04-13, version 1.1.3* ..except take photos.

But I’ve just reinstalled it hoping that would solve the problem but it has crashed again. Sometimes the app partly works. The last two times the screen has seized up and it doesn’t work anymore. I hope this gets sorted whether it’s the app or my phone causing the problem. ### 1/5 — Same as David *2022-01-29, version 1.1.2* Same as David ### 1/5 — You need a way to video *2021-10-29* Whyyyyyy ### 1/5 — 🙄 *2021-07-15, version 1.1.2* Gooooooooooooooooooood ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Tiny rocket *2026-07-29, version 1.1.3* I love how tiny it is and then it’s big ### 5/5 — 100 stars *2026-07-18, version 1.1.3* The best game on Apple App Store I’m a little I’m a kid and I absolutely love rocket in this and having one in my house or backyard has always been. I’ve always wanted to be able to do that. It’s super cool. Like I could play this game for hours just letting rocket just rip off into space and then the coolest part is it’s free. 1000 stars out of 10 actually 1 million stars out of five. ### 5/5 — I *2026-07-11, version 1.1.3* 😃😃😃😃😀😀😀😀😃😃 ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-04-22, version 1.1.3* Very awesome game to use outside,I’m very interested in space so that’s why I down loaded this,five stars ### 5/5 — It Is Fun *2026-04-17, version 1.1.3* It is fun for children who don’t have any money or toys to buy a like rocket like toy and for fun as you can just go outside boom just like that you have just launched a rocket plus the amount of things makes me happy ### 5/5 — This is the best *2026-04-06* I had so much fun everyday I will wake up and play this game to the developer of the game make another one keep the great work up!!! ### 5/5 — I love this *2026-01-25, version 1.1.3* I love this ### 5/5 — Great game and a few things that you could add *2025-12-31, version 1.1.3* This app is like… just CRAZY! It is so cool because you can just have an Apollo 11 in your pocket. Also, I tried out the “real size” a few times, and I was just blown away by how huge Apollo 11 actually is. And, I think that you should add an option to change the rocket to a different one. Or, maybe you could just make it so you can make a rocket to launch. And, I think it would be totally awesome if you added a launch tower. Also, I love that the game is 100% free! If you’re having trouble with the camera, then just go to settings and select app privacy and turn on the camera for backyard Apollo. ### 5/5 — OMG *2025-12-30, version 1.1.3* Muy buena calidad no sabía que riñera tan grande y la precisión para recrearlo de seguro fue mucha ### 5/5 — Great game and a few things that you could add *2025-12-29* This app is like… just CRAZY!
