Also, the achievements are really easy I still don’t get white stars, but it’s OK! ### 3/5 — Same quests *2026-04-07, version 6.565.3* The two things I dislike about this game are that the quests are the same and I can’t get into white stars even though I have joined a group ### 2/5 — G R I N D *2026-03-23, version 6.565.3* This game is really good. That is, until you hit the brick wall of progression. To level up your modules and weapons, you need exponentially more and more blueprints. The higher level and more difficult red star missions drop cargo with more blueprints, but for some reason, after level 5 or so, the cargo will stop increasing the number of blueprints they drop for each module. It stays at around 10 blueprints, even at level 11 cargo. This makes the grind for later game completely absurd and tedious. Fix the grind please! ### 3/5 — Bring Back The Old White Star *2026-02-18, version 6.565.3* I’ve been playing this game for years, and thoroughly enjoy the way alliances are implemented. I keep coming back often times just for the sweet fellowship. But please bring back the old version of White Stars. There was more strategy and even minimal rewards for joining. Now it’s more of a winner-takes-all and the promised balance of weaponry and shields never came. It’s mostly about Chain-lasers now. ### 4/5 — Good except *2025-12-15, version 6.565.3* The ui for modules is broken and will not take me to the unlock/ upgrade menu except when no module is available on a battleship (other ship types will not show "open modules") ### 1/5 — I don’t know how to play *2025-07-07, version 6.555.3* Can you like do a tutorial because I have no idea how to play it. Once I download it did and joined. I do not know what to do exited to home screen and immediately deleted can you please fix this ### 4/5 — Great game but one issue *2025-06-23, version 6.555.1* So I’m stuck on this one bit where the red star scanner cost 20,000 but my inventory space for the money can only get to 18,000 and I really gotta upgrade my planet, but still it’s not gonna let me upgrade them because I can’t get the money, but the main issue is when I tried to do the tutorial for the shipment relay it’s one button I had to press would make the whole game crashed for me and I tried to restart my electronic yet still it happened so please fix this bug. It is super annoying. ### 1/5 — Dev says he hates the game *2025-04-13, version 6.555.1* The developer hates the game, and uses it as a cash cow to release his horrible p2w side games that have all failed. I’ve never seen a developer snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in a single game. ### 1/5 — Вы испортили замечательную игру ! *2025-04-05* Верните всё так как было до обновления! ### 1/5 — I’ll change to 5 stars if… *2025-03-11, version 5.714.3* You please for the love of all that is good and holy give me credits. No reason not to. Some small amount to grind for 4th place finishs in Blue Stars. Say 2000. That way it takes 100 4th places to get to max. It is ridiculous the amount of one shottedneas that occurs and I seem to have the worst luck with that to not get something. Thanks. Update 7.29 Also im pretty sure in my blue star grind today I just died for tge 3rd time in a row after destiny-ing into oblivion and getting 4th place. So could you please fix it where the “random” (hahahahahahahahahahahaha riiiiiiight) jump location where it isnt behind the red line. Thanks. Update 3.11.25 Keep getting matched with players way higher in blue stars and insta-dying. Please fix. Thanks! ### 1/5 — Lost all progress *2025-03-02, version 5.714.3* I play ever so often. I had to reset my phone for reasons. Now I have to use my "old device" to get my account back. Except my "old device" is the same as the one I am currently using. So its impossible for me to get my account back, because using an email to do so would make too much sense. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — For some reason the AppStore thought I have played the game before but I don’t remember *2026-06-06, version 6.565.3* Like I didn’t play! Pls AppStore, fix it! ### 1/5 — Some epic fail *2026-05-01, version 6.565.3* BS matchmaking system is epic fail lvl1 vs 999…… ### 1/5 — Dumb design prevents starting over *2026-04-02, version 6.565.3* “ We have designed the game to be persistent, so there is no built-in function to restart. Part of the experience is sticking with your Empire through hardship. On iOS, you can only start a new game on a new device.” That’s really dumb design. So you have to delete the app to start over? Really dumb otherwise a fair space app. Too much of the text is too small to read on iPhone. Why is it rocket science to make text adjustable in size to be read (which would improve sales, DAH! Dimwit under 40 year olds.)?! ### 1/5 — Pay to win *2026-03-01, version 6.565.3* Don’t waste your time unless you plan on shelling out real money. ### 1/5 — It used to be the best moble space game *2026-02-02, version 6.565.3* They ruined the game with an update that completely unbalances the game , the feel is different it plays different and I cant understand why they would do that .. I hope it was worth it devs … ### 1/5 — Progress Lost *2025-12-28, version 6.565.3* Played this game for years, until one day all progress was gone. ### 1/5 — What a boring game. *2025-12-08, version 6.565.3* This game is basically a reskin of Farmville. Wait for resource bar to fill up, collect resources, upgrade, repeat. And it’s not like an old-school RTS, the resource take forever to accrete. If waiting for bars to fill up is your idea of a good time, then this one’s for you. ### 1/5 — Unplayable *2025-11-07, version 6.565.1* I can’t even get past the title screen. You hit start new game and nothing happens ### 1/5 — Испортили такую хорошую игру *2025-10-03* К сожалению игра была испорчена обновлением. Новые игроки мб еще эту игру скачают ,а вот стариков уже не вернут . Надо было слушать комьюнити.одну и ту же ошибку допускает очередной разраб. ### 1/5 — Pay2win *2025-07-10, version 6.555.3* Garbage matching. You get matched with people 10x your levels and can’t progress unless you buy their in game currency. Don’t bother. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS GAME *2026-08-04, version 6.565.3* So man this is like so nice when we can see supernovas expand our empire i just love it ALL ### 5/5 — 5+ years on..finally getting around to review *2026-04-24, version 6.565.3* Great progression. Strong community in the thousands. And tight knit teams. This is not a pay to win game. It is strategic econ and warfare at its best. Packaged into a nice little app that can be played on other devices and on computer through Steam. If you need any help, just ask for it on the official discord. ### 5/5 — Idk what’s the difference between “hades’ Star” and “hades’ star dark nebula” *2026-03-06, version 6.565.3* There’s really no difference, it’s just that they have different utilities looks ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-01-20, version 6.565.3* Just amazing. It is Just what I need😊 ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-01-17, version 6.565.3* Absolutely awesome game, should make players capable of owning multiple stars ### 5/5 — beautiful work of art :D *2025-12-31, version 6.565.3* I’m one of the people that love space games, and they aren’t easy to find. Once I had heard of Hades’ Star, I instantly knew I needed to play it. In this game you find fun, satisfaction, community, and more! Totally recommend - 5 stars! ### 5/5 — A game I’ve loved and played on/off for years *2025-10-26, version 6.565.1* The only mobile game that has held my interest for over nearly a decade. Really satisfies the long term progression itch and there’s nothing else quite like the strategic 5-day team vs team matches (called “white stars”) out there. Great game for people who are fans of strategy, and the developer has been very principled about finding ways to generate revenue without micro transactions / pay to win / ads. I just wish content updates were more frequent. ### 5/5 — Лучше чем ничего *2025-10-07* Единственная игра в которую можно играть и её в связи с улучшениями пытаются угробить ### 5/5 — Awesome *2025-10-06, version 6.555.3* Awesome game. I love it so much. If the developers are reading this, I have an idea for a module - Artifact Drone! It would cost hydrogen to activate, of course but would be good for players new to Red Stars ### 5/5 — So far love it *2025-03-01, version 5.714.3* I’ve played for maybe like two hours this game is not a game the wastes your time slow slow progress is my favorite super fun game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
