### 5/5 — Old favorite!

*2026-08-17, version 1.1.19*

One of my favorite iPad games ever.

### 5/5 — Sweet game

*2026-08-17, version 1.1.19*

It’s a great game lots of fun when you need to pass time. When are we gonna get a number three

### 5/5 — well worth it

*2026-08-12, version 1.1.19*

Very good game.  Non-monetized, non-gacha, just a solid game.

Get all the addons except the kaamo club.  I say this because the kaamo club dlc removes one of the funnest fights in the game.  Ship storage is not a problem unless you are playing so you can spend real money to collect ships.

Don’t be afraid to try Extreme difficulty - you never know, you might like it!

### 5/5 — The best game I have ever played

*2026-08-05, version 1.1.19*

No other game is better

### 5/5 — Old gold, maybe too old now? 😢

*2026-08-05, version 1.1.19*

This game is the best. Played it for years and have all the add ons. I was playing through Supernova today when, at the end of the Luur evac mission, when you close the character dialogue after the evac is complete, the game bugs out and the screen goes black. I couldn’t get past this bug, and I’m worried if this means that Supernova may no longer be playable… perhaps GoF2’s software is finally old enough to no longer work well anymore. This is very sad. I hope I am the only one who’s having this issue

### 3/5 — Great game one of the best  out there…

*2026-08-03, version 1.1.19*

But… game keeps crashing after i get to certain point in the storyline??

### 3/5 — Great game but with bugs and awkward controls

*2026-07-29, version 1.1.19*

I really love this game. There are very few good games on the app store such as this one. No ads, no need to do IAP. The gameplay is fun, maybe a bit repetitive. 

What made me give this rating is because of the hardlock in the 3rd mission of the Supernova dlc. After the rescue sequence, the game just goes to a black screen, you cannot control your ship or circumvent this problem. The developers have stopped supporting this game, so i doubt this bug is getting fixed. There’s 20 missions in the Supernova dlc and you get stuck on the 3rd one :/  So do not buy the dlc, but give the game a try. Also you don’t need to buy the dlcs anyways because there’s a bug which allows you to get all the dlcs for free. Also also, the controls are awkward and the buttions and joystick are at the like the edge of the screen. Sometimes some buttons get partially covered by the dynamic island.

### 2/5 — Great, but please fix this

*2026-07-26, version 1.1.19*

I originally installed this game when it came out almost 15 years ago. Loved,it, and still do. It’s REMARKABLY detailed

I re-downloaded it recently and purchased all of the expansion packs

In the Supernova add-on there is an evacuation sequence from the Lurr station.

After the evacuation is complete and the dialogue finishes, the screen goes black and prevents from going further.

I spent close to $100 on upgrades and add-ons, is there anyway to get this fixed?

### 3/5 — Needs fixed

*2026-07-19, version 1.1.19*

Many of the missions now and the Valkyrie add on don’t ever pay out. I’ve lost over a million credits because I never get paid for the missions
