My only problem is when you watch an ad to gain a reward, you cannot press on the screen to close the ad at the end. Very annoying. ### 3/5 — Very fun but missing lots of simple features *2022-12-31, version 1.6.1* Love the game concept and it is very fun. I have spent quite a bit of time on this little game already but I like idle games so I have found a few things that bug me. A buy max button: please for the love of god. I hate holding down the buy button for 5 mins to buy what I want in bulk. Or a buy button amount switcher, either would be great. Buying pilots: quite literally the most tedious task in the game. If you pay for ads free, it is always worth it to reroll since you get to choose. That being said, getting several new pilots at once (say when you unlock lots of ships at once) is a pain in the rear. It can take a full 30+ mins just to buy pilots. Rearranging pilots: once you’ve played a bit it becomes obvious some pilots are better than others. Therefore, it makes sense to move your best pilots to the top ships vs the bottom for more profit. This is easily the second most tedious thing to do as you have to resign the ones you want, move them and assign them to the new ship and then move the other pilot back to the old ships. Why isn’t there an upgrade you can buy or just a button for “optimize pilots”? Better yet, why is it so confusing which pilots are better? I have to move pilots around just to check which ones make the most money, it’s very tedious. Lastly, the game isn’t actually much of an idle game: you make coins while you are away but hardly. You sometimes get coin drops from boxes and this gives you almost as many coins as leaving the game overnight. It’s really more of an active game with occasional forced idle to go to sleep. Please just fix these minor annoyances and the game will be pretty excellent. I understand the game economy has to be manageable so giving lots of credits during idle is not ideal but at least show me how to make my setup better for it. I play 20-30 mins a day, not 10 hours. ### 2/5 — Love the graphics, but there’s no game behind them *2022-05-27, version 1.6.0* Even by idle game standards there is very little to do here, just tap the upgrade button. No strategy, nothing to collect, not even a very flimsy storyline. The things you unlock are exactly like the things you had before, no new abilities or features, just slightly different ships in slightly different hangars. ### 4/5 — Good game *2022-02-12, version 1.5.5* I think this game is great. Fun to play and progress ### 5/5 — Love the game, not many ads *2022-01-22, version 1.5.4* Every game i have ever played has constant ads, this game barely has any ads, that’s wonderful ### 4/5 — Nice game *2022-01-04, version 1.5.4* This game is such nice i really like it but it need something in more, but nice ### 5/5 — Art style *2021-10-24, version 1.5.4* Unlike most idle tycoon games this game has an amazing art style that I love. The fact the devs put effort into the art style should be rewarded. ### 5/5 — This is the best game I ever downloaded *2021-10-20, version 1.5.4* I love the game not to many adds just perfect! The idle income is just right I took 3 days off and was not even that good and got like 9m money and I had only two ships one on each floor! Just the right game! ### 5/5 — Good😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😃 *2021-07-24, version 1.5.3* Started today still in zone 1 but I have 7 fleets!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Good game *2021-07-07, version 1.5.3* It’s a nice idle game with very cool ship designs. It is very easy to progress and is a fun time overall. Once again the spaceships are amazingly designed, however, they are not the only thing that is beautifully done. The backgrounds are very nice and add a sense of atmosphere to a game that is already cool. Sure this game genre/style has been done a million times but this is a very fun one in that category. ### 5/5 — 5+ *2021-06-16, version 1.5.3* Пять с плюсом! ### 5/5 — I want sci notation! *2021-01-28, version 1.5.1* I really wanted an sci notation! example: 19.08T will be 1.908*10^12 and I want the world age and the total world age! (year/month/day:hour:minute’second”millisecond) and I want where the game is started! (month day year(2020 is already over)) and this game year! begins from the year 18,067! ### 4/5 — Fun *2021-01-13, version 1.5.1* This game is more captivating than other idle games I’ve played. It’s a 5 star game. Minus one star for the cost of ads free. It’s quite a bit more than most games like this. That said, the ads that are there aren’t intrusive and don’t interrupt game play. You can choose to watch or not. Watching them really gives you a lot and you will end up watching them for the nice benefits they afford. ### 5/5 — Great game *2020-11-11, version 1.5.1* It’s a great game but are there other planets to unlock just curious ### 5/5 — Perfect game to sleep to *2020-10-26, version 1.5.1* Very monotonous which is why it puts me to bed so easily. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Buggy *2026-08-07, version 1.6.5* This is the buggiest app I’ve ever used on iPhone. Crashed four times in the first five minutes. Uninstalled. ### 1/5 — Nothing to do *2022-12-13, version 1.6.1* Buy a ship. Add a pilot. Wait. Repeat. ### 1/5 — Boring *2022-06-22, version 1.6.0* Idle clickers can be interesting; this one just isn’t. The pixel graphics are really good, though. ### 1/5 — Can’t Play Unless You Authorize Snooping *2022-06-13, version 1.6.0* That’s what it feels like. We are forced to send data back. Just charge for the game and take out all that other stuff you want to learn about me. That’s my opinion anyway. ### 1/5 — Cloud backup *2020-04-27, version 1.3.1* Need cloud or at least social media backup. A year of progress made lost after switching device. ### 1/5 — Review Prompts *2019-09-22, version 1.2.1* 1 star for the malicious review prompts. Choosing a 1 star in the app goes to email. I turn off In-App Ratings and Reviews for a reason. ### 1/5 — pareil que linoux *2019-09-01, version 1.1.9* nul ### 1/5 — Это ужас *2019-05-25, version 1.1.0* Русский язык отвратительный!!!! ### 1/5 — Not playable *2019-03-30, version 1.0.4* Every time I try to get into the game it crashes. ### 1/5 — Boring *2019-03-27, version 1.0.3* Boring, not much to do. Add a ship, add another. Yawn. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 良放置ゲー *2025-12-15, version 1.6.5* 機体のデザインや高度によって見え方が変わる背景など、細かなところにSFらしさへのこだわりを感じた。 ログゲーのような地味な放置ゲームが好きな人は好きだと思う。効率を考えてやれば多少早く進むかもしれないけど考えなくても楽しめる。シンプルなのでストレスがない。 ### 5/5 — Wunderschönes Spiel *2025-06-21, version 1.6.4* Wunderbares Spiel Lob a den Entwickler und den Artist! ❤️ ### 5/5 — Почему ты так хорошо *2024-10-18, version 1.6.4* Мой это очень хорошая игра предлагал всем скачивайте ### 5/5 — add unlimited towers *2024-01-01, version 1.6.1* can please add unlimited towers?
