Fantastic Game

Celestial Assault is one of the best phone games I’ve ever played. The graphics are phenomenal, the gameplay is excellent, and the challenges while hard are still fair to the player. Your ship’s upgrade system is simple to understand, and provides an easy method to track your progress. All this, combined with at least six hours of gameplay, make Celestial Assault an easy five star.

If you’ve just downloaded this game and think it’s a little slow - give it time. Yes, the first two levels are very slow, and you begin with weak starting weapons. But isn’t that the point? The first levels are supposed to be slow, so you can learn how to play the game. But once you kill that first boss, the difficulty noticeably ramps up. It’s similar to Faster than Light (FTL) in how the level structure is organized and how your ship is upgraded. Eventually your starting weapons will need to be replaced with something far more powerful as you progress.

Overall, it’s a phenomenal game for any sci-fi fans out there. You can play for hours, or just when you need some time to kill. It’s fun no matter what.

Pretty terrible

Game is just bad.

Reminds me of gradius galaxies from gameboy advance

Really enjoying this! :)

Fun to pass time

I like this game... It is an updated version of asteroids

A Graduis RPG :)

Like Gradius? You will like this great game! It allows for RPG style leveling via an exp system and customizing your ship by buying your ships weapon systems with earned gold! Great mix of shooting and RPG strategy! FUN!
