### 4/5 — New Name?

*2024-01-07, version 1.10.3*

Was the game renamed? Still a good game but I’m just curious.

### 4/5 — Ad rewards won’t work…

*2023-12-17*

I love this game but every time I watch an ad all the way through it won’t give me the reward still I must have watched around 12 ads for Star points and most of them didn’t go through to the developers of this game pls fix this and can I have my rewards redeemed

### 3/5 — Great concept, but...

*2022-03-06, version 1.9.3*

Love this concept... building your spaceship. Needs a better tutorial. Similar to (check it out) Battle Arena: Build and Battle!

### 4/5 — good but ai op

*2022-02-13*

the game is good, but seriusly, change the ai! they can turn without thrusting, and 100% accurately predict where you will be when they shoot and end up hitting you with all of their shots! Please man, not good for balance, change!

### 3/5 — Been playing since the beginning

*2021-08-16*

I love this game and have been playing it since it came out, but the end game is just too hard. The swarm and the contagion are too hard and there’s just no way to finish the skill tree and break past lvl100 the y need to be nerfed a little so that the game is completable. Well. At least to the point that I can break the 100 block and start aiming for 1000

### 2/5 — Has some problems

*2021-03-10, version 1.9.3*

Solid gameplay for a top down space battler, however it is prone to crashes and has a chance to lock you into a battle which will not actually end when you complete. Game data lost on my end due to this

### 2/5 — FIX YOUR AI AND YOUR TUTORIAL

*2021-01-07*

The ai in this game is so annoying because the speed demons in this game do nothing hut shoot you and fly around right outside of the radius of all your weapons, like sometimes even the drones dont go for them and just sit there flying around you doing nothing, the most annoying ai are the embryo ai, like i dont mind the basic ships but the second that the white embryo ships that go super fast come around is almost impossible to kill them with drones or if you can get a lucky shot after the embryos finally hit a rock.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2020-10-30*

The game is fun with lots of exploring to do but exploring gets really boring after awhile and each time I go to a new system I have to fight off enemies which take more time defeat than I wish to spend. Also when the game is played offline it starts to lag quite a bit especially during battles which makes it next to impossible to hit the enemy ships.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2020-08-14, version 1.9.2*

There is only one problem I have and that’s the difficulty for new players to get level 200 ships

### 4/5 — .

*2020-07-31*

It’s a really fun game but takes forever to grind and near impossible to get good gear early on

### 4/5 — Great game but one issue

*2020-07-10*

Great game I used to play a lot of but since i got an iphone xs max, my health bar and energy bar are obscured by the notch at the top of the phone.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2020-04-28*

I have no complaints. I just want to use my controller and the configure thing goes into a blank screen. Everything else I don’t mind it’s free and really great way to kill hours.

### 1/5 — 这什么垃圾？

*2026-05-01, version 1.12.0*

这个游戏的贴图粗制滥造甚至有AIGC贴图，而且中文QQ社区一点也不友好做模组都是吼的，玩法简单到离谱内容更是垃圾，后期完全没有什么可玩的了开新存档也是换汤不换药玩玩就腻了，这简直是全宇宙最糟糕的游戏

### 1/5 — Bad Game Worse Dev

*2025-09-21*

I paid for the 2500 stars. Real money. It only gave 2000. I demand a response or I will involve legal help as that is money I paid for a service that I did not receive. Please see to it that you respond in a timely manner.

### 1/5 — Bad Game Worse Dev

*2025-09-05*

Lost hundreds of hours of ships and progress (and also real money because of what I spent in that file), reached out to support across several years, heard nothing back. The dev is known for this, so do yourself a favor and delete this. If I get a response and in-game compensation, I will delete this review. I left one recently that they deleted themselves though so beware.

### 1/5 — 打不过司马三改臭虫子

*2025-06-23, version 1.12.0*

我澡称冯了个福

### 1/5 — Not so good

*2018-03-14, version 0.14.7*

With the current updates in place for this game it has made certain enemies over powered if youre just starting out, not worth the download until re-balanced.

### 1/5 — very good offline single player, but...

*2018-02-20*

this game could be better with bluetooth battle. And please, change the darm arena bot AI, they can shot 100% accurate without targeting system, knowing where you are when you still in stealth. at less bring actual pvp battle.

### 2/5 — Busted c.p.u poor development.

*2025-12-11, version 1.12.0*

The enemy cpu is too tough. The fact that their scout seems to shoot further and fly faster despite my levels and changes. Disgusting. Its auto targeting makes the game nearly unplayable now. I had a lot of the game explored on android back when it was still event horizon. With the money i spent there I probably helped fund this revamp. Sad to see where my money went. Was considering spending some here now that I’ve switched to apple. Not anymore.

### 2/5 — Great game

*2025-06-18*

But don’t buy the 2500 stars package! You only get 2000 stars. Otherwise, the game is a lot of fun.

### 2/5 — Newer isn’t always better

*2024-02-17, version 1.10.3*

I played this game like 2 or 3 years ago and I enjoyed it so much I completed a few hundred levels and so on but I re-downloaded it and it’s changed so much in a bad way. I don’t understand why these changes have been made but it’s bad, I was used to going to the next level and fighting off waves of ships protecting my base but now it’s just ship vs ship. I won’t go into more detail long story short gameplay is mediocre at best now and I’m pretty bummed out that this game isn’t what it used to be

### 2/5 — Why did this happen?

*2022-04-09, version 1.9.3*

Today I opened the app, but for some reason my progress was randomly deleted? All I did was press continue game and it deleted everything I had done

### 5/5 — Always normal…

*2025-12-13, version 1.12.0*

There is never xxx capital ships in normal area, not even capital ships.

### 5/5 — Best space rpg

*2025-05-14*

10/10 been playing this game since 2017. The beginning is hard, to learn to aim n well become over powered is the main goal. I go for the zephyr every play-through as im a sucker for missiles. Huge endless fun best guess 250+ hrs. Takes a insanely long time to get all the capital ships, a literal endless map. Every planet explorable. This. Is . Huge
QUESTION FOR THE DEV MANNNN. 
Can you put import profile on ios, i badly wish to bring over the file i emailed myself lol. Much love

### 5/5 — Amazing game, one questional mechanic

*2024-10-29*

I love this game, and have been playing it atleast since the empire released, and have even taken down Red Dwarf stations.

Their planets though, oh boy. Planet exploration is already immensely difficult late game, being forced to fight multiple battleships and capital ships with just a frigate, I could always get through. Red Dwarf is a different story, their triple skull ships are just insanely difficult, quickly wiping out my infinity stone and hull again after, and outrun my ship with about 20+ speed. Not to mention the toxic clouds dealing tens of thousands of damage a second, it feels extremely unfair, even when I have an infinity stone.

I dread trying to unlock the blueprints that only drop on the planets. Amazing game, I love the challenge, don’t get me wrong, but planet exploration was already an overly risky slog, but now it seems unapproachable.

I look forward to any follow up on this, you’ve made a wonderful game, and these latest changes have been very exciting, keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — 神，继续更新就是手机顶级神作

*2024-01-12, version 1.10.3*

作为手游真是没有任何游戏能代替。

### 5/5 — Fun

*2023-03-13*

Nice little distraction that’s not like the mind numbing cash grabs that plague the App Store now a days. Fun combat and makes you strategize to get ahead. Hope the devs are doing well

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-01-05*

Please update the game with more seasonal events, I love this game

### 5/5 — Contagion faction

*2021-03-25*

Love this new faction, but how could i capture their base when they are 80 level more than me? ( 2 vs 30 ship to capture their base is above my skill, also , if you can remove the infinity stone on enemy al, it really help, i cant raise my ship above 100 lv because the requiment of the techtree, please read this comment , Thank you.)

### 5/5 — Some things that could work on

*2020-11-17, version 1.9.3*

This is a amazing game just amazing although there are somethings that don’t make that much sense like for the heavy rail gun why does it disperse when it is hit by a little missile I mean I now that a big would do it but come on that thing is huge being destroyed by just a little thing like that just making a speculation

### 5/5 — Unique game design

*2020-09-18, version 1.9.3*

I suggest you give the game a try. 

It feels occasionally unbalanced, and the controls could be considered inconvenient. (It gets a lot better with practice, and you have the option of customizing the controls) 

But I consider the game nevertheless amazing. If the concept appeals to you, definitely try it out. There’s no other game, on mobile, that combines both ship design and piloting skill to any level of depth. Believe me, I’ve searched.

Some of my personal opinion on possible improvements:
Keybindings don’t allow multiple keys bound to one weapon (ie frontal shield) and binding many (for example, 10 small pulse cannons) weapons to one key sometimes doesn’t work when shooting. The autopilot goes in virtually infinite circles with the enemy autopilot now, and some enemies still exceed 20 speed with mass drivers which are literally impossible to take down unless you have medium range instantaneous hit weapon or a long range missile or TU and a lot of inertial dampers. That is because those fast enemies always avoid your weapons range. And the level grind is a bit too difficult!
