### 5/5 — Great Game!

*2025-11-16*

Could you possibly add new features or ships to it. It could be even greater.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2023-03-19*

Fast paced, action packed, fun and simple to play!

### 2/5 — Lends Itself to a Frustrating Time

*2022-12-28*

As you have probably read in countless other reviews, this game has 0 concept of gradual difficulty curve and tends to just toss you into a den full of angry cats after just a couple games on your own without the tutorial.

I think it is expected that players develop using the online PVP mode, except there is such little in the way of even match making which I think reveals the game’s true lack of strategic level gameplay and instead boils down to who has the better stuff.  Even if you win a multiplayer you then have to watch a long boring add about merge mansion (that is what I saw a lot of while playing this game) or you wait hours to open the crate you earned playing their PVP game… all to hopefully get enough randomly earned awards to upgrade your stuff.

Folks, this is a grind fest pure and simple; and you will be watching adds or waiting screens almost as often as playing the game itself just so you can finally beat act 1 of the game.  Or spend your hard earned money on stuff.

If this game had a much more casual single player mode that could offer opportunities to upgrade in time for the next mission, the rest would be par for the course and an enjoyable game.

### 4/5 — Style

*2020-03-20*

Quirky with a outer space dimension

### 5/5 — Always coming back

*2019-10-13*

By far the favorite game on my phone. I wish it would be updated with new content. I am constantly checking for an update!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2018-11-25, version 1.2.9*

Definitely has a lot of potential , loving the retro

### 1/5 — Scammers

*2018-11-14, version 1.2.9*

DO NOT PLAY GAME 
 They are extorting 1800 claiming I refunded purchase which is a lie.  They site google play which I’ve never used.  ITunes refunded once because my bank requested since my account was compromised and I even let devs know and they said it was okay since it was my ex that didn’t recognize charges ( we are in different states and went thru divorce) My account has been hacked twice,
I’ve asked for recoveries, a few password changes and informed them something was correct for months. (Facebook states unusual logins) Now they are blaming me for not keeping my account secured. They did a selective ban and are trying to say people owe thousands of dollars.  Do not purchase anything from them. I’ve spent on iTunes close to 7k (never refunded)and they are siting google which I don’t use for 1800 or they are deleting my account
SCAMMERS
Over a week massive players are experiencing trouble with connection issues and this is causing a massive problem when ur not shielded or there is a kill event going on.  While farming last few days I’m losing food because I’m food negative and can’t log in and the connection keeps failing and keeps I can’t get into the game.. they need
to fix this ASAP.. I would send this in game but I can’t seem to log on n hold a connection.

### 5/5 — It’s a fine game

*2018-10-14*

Battle Star Arena is a really fun game to play. I enjoy the mechanics, graphics, music, and pretty much everything else. My only issue with the game is the offline missions. I think I’ve reached a point in the game where the current boss is far out of my league, sure I’m good at playing online battles, but I guess just have to play harder. Nevertheless, this game is all the more fun to play with people you know! Great game !!!

EDIT:
Thanks for the tip!

**Developer response:** Thanks for you review Yudosai. In which offline mission are you stucked (act and mission)? In most of the cases you can beat stronger enemies using the correct deck, i mean, each card has his "breaker". With "breaker" a mean another card that can easy override it.

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2018-10-10*

I absolutely love this game! It’s awesome. I love space stuff like this and I like the clash royale style as well. 
The only complaint I have here is act 2 final level. 
All the levI sleep before this I was able to do with a few tries. But once I hit this level the difficulty went from like, 3 to 37. I would ask that nerf stuff like, this to make the game better for offline. 

I would also ask that you are able to replay previous campaign missions, but without any reward. Just so people that are stuck on levels like me, are able to play the game enjoyable offline

### 5/5 — Great little game

*2018-09-23, version 1.2.5*

Good game, fast paced stratgergy. V addictive.

Laughing at these people saying it’s pay to win - can’t fault the game for you being bad!
