I would love to see an update that requires you to defend from above and below since all of your movement is only lateral. ### 4/5 — Great game, a few flaws. *2015-06-30, version 1.2* First off, this game looks amazing, they pulled off the minimalism perfectly. The gameplay is very simple and satisfying, though with the gyro controls, it makes the game a little less accessible. Also, the game drops you in with no explanation. The first few times I played, I just tapped randomly because I didn't know what else to do. Overall, a must-have for pretty much everyone. ### 4/5 — 現実の星空になっている *2015-01-27, version 1.2* 色はテキトー? これはハコスコ対応にすると楽しそう。 ### 4/5 — 재밌는데 빙글빙글 돌면서해야함 *2014-06-22, version 1.1* 귀찮 ### 4/5 — I luv it *2014-05-01, version 1.1* The concept is cool, the interface is simple and well designed, but yes it probably needs more thrilling features ### 5/5 — davvero un gioco bellissimo *2014-02-06, version 1.1* giroscopio perfetto un app molto divertente! più ci gioco più ne voglio! ### 5/5 — Simpel... *2014-01-14, version 1.1* ... aber cool. Bringt Spaß und mit zunehmender Spieldauer steigt der Schwierigkeitsgrad. ### 4/5 — Französisch *2014-01-14, version 1.1* Hier mal ein paar wichtige französische Floskeln: Je m'apelle Emil: Ich heisse Emil J'ai trois ans: Ich bin drei Jahre alt J'habite à Munich: Ich wohne in München ### 5/5 — A+++ *2014-01-13, version 1.1* Aaa+++ ### 4/5 — You're going to have to stand up to play this game. *2013-11-29, version 1.1* This game is all about using your gyroscope in order to view the 3D space in all angles and tapping the screen to destroy incoming the missiles. That means you're going to have to stand up so you can look in all directions and look like a weirdo playing this game. But still, it's fun being able to use your gyroscope to it's full potential and refreshing seeing a new take on a Missile Defender-type game. GyrOrbital could use some extra features though. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Corrupted *2021-10-13, version 1.2* Even after deleting this, I still get error messages from this, telling me to delete. Please fix. Nightmare. ### 1/5 — HOW DO U EVEN PLAY?!? *2015-12-03, version 1.2* This game has no tutorial and no instructions. ### 1/5 — 説明書欲しい *2014-10-18, version 1.2* 遊び方が、まるで分からない⤵︎ どうやっても、隕石全弾当たって即死になるよ。 ### 1/5 — Bad *2014-08-29, version 1.2* Too bad game ### 1/5 — Sickening *2014-06-21, version 1.1* Nauseous in the first minute! ### 1/5 — Che brutto... *2014-01-14, version 1.1* È un giochino abbastanza stupido e monotono... Vorrei vedere chi è disposto anche a pagarlo... ### 2/5 — Orribile! *2014-08-09, version 1.1* Davvero tremendo ahahah ### 3/5 — Nice concept *2014-04-07, version 1.1* Nice game but it need more weapons and power ups. Without these it's pretty boring ### 3/5 — eigentlich cool *2014-01-19, version 1.1* An sich ist das Spiel wirklich cool, aber da man sich immer im Kreis drehen muss, damit man alles im Überblick hat, ist das Spiel nicht wirklich alltagstauglich. Schade eigentlich. Wenn man mit dem Finger auf dem Bildschirm nach rechts, links, oben und unten wischen könnte, um die Umgebung im Überblick zu haben, wäre das Spiel perfekt. Denn dann müsste man sich nicht immer den Rücken verbiegen oder erst aufstehen und um die eigene Achse drehen müssen. ### 3/5 — Bella ma....... *2014-01-14, version 1.1* Sembra polybius O-O ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it *2015-04-30, version 1.2* Great game ### 5/5 — So Cool! *2015-02-11, version 1.2* I love how this game makes use of the iPhones gyroscope to create an immersive game. The art is beautiful. The task is simple. A real hidden gem. ### 5/5 — Seva rak *2015-01-27, version 1.2* Gooooooooood!! ### 5/5 — 最高 *2014-10-15, version 1.2* なんて面白いんだ笑笑 ### 5/5 — Retro-Styled Virtual Reality *2014-10-11, version 1.2* This is a very fun game. Plays like a Vectrex game in virtual reality. Sharp retro-styled graphics, hectic but motivating nevertheless. An interesting blend of Missile Defense and Panzer Dragoon, but then again something completely different. If you ever owned and liked the Vectrex with its vector display, try this and you won't be disappointed. ### 5/5 — 신기방기!! 재밌어요 :) *2014-06-19, version 1.1* 이런 게임인줄 몰랐는데 신선하구 재밌네요! 중심이 되는 원을 업그레이드 할수 있거나 하면 더 좋겠지만..디자인?도 맘에 들고 우주에 있다고 생각하면서 놀기 좋은거같아요ㅋㅋㅋ이게임은 서서해야됨!! 암튼 즐겁네요 ### 5/5 — なかなか *2014-06-17, version 1.1* これは単純だけど楽しい ### 5/5 — Интересно *2014-05-25, version 1.1* Круто ### 5/5 — Novel & fun! *2014-04-06* It's a neat twist on the classic missile defense, recommended. ### 5/5 — 面白い *2014-02-15, version 1.1* 自分が動くと画面が動いて、遠くの方にミサイルが見えるっていうのが斬新 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
