### 4/5 — Simple game

*2024-05-26, version 1.2.1*

A really good simple game 
Could do with some refinements

### 4/5 — Real cool game

*2024-05-25, version 1.2.1*

I have been interested in space wars recently and I love games too so this was perfect for me and it doesn’t have many bugs but, you could update the game more and also add something we could pay to remove ads.

The game is simple too makes it easy to get use to the controls and commands which is a massive thumbs up. A suggestion I would like is animation something like explosions engine firing and other things you could add in animation. The graphics could look better maybe better looking ships and planets.

Something else is more maps than just the one and rebellions when your empire gets to large to quickly and also a difficulty setting something like

Beginner
Easy
Normal
Skilled
Hard
Master

That would very cool where every game is not pretty much the same

Also diplomacy I don’t want to be attack on all sides I would prefer peace and build up a fleet while everyone is killing each other and just watch the battles while I wait for my fleet to be built

You don’t have to do all of these but it would be very nice did at least some of them

### 2/5 — AI way to overpowered

*2024-05-02, version 1.2.1*

Could be a fun game, but AI is way to overpowered unless you watch a gazillion ads and use the in game money for a bunch of stuff. You spend more time in ads or watching the ai build the toughest troops faster than you can take two planets. I honestly don’t know how people can beat this game without grinding away for days on end or I guess you just have to end up paying for the stuff. 

TL;DR: Could be good, but bots are way too hard.

### 4/5 — Been way too long!

*2024-01-09, version 1.2.1*

Most games on the App Store are… less than stellar. And it’s been that way for a long time. This one, however, is a nice breath of fresh air. It’s a nice tactical game with a slight learning curve. It’s not too complicated though. It still has plenty of room to grow though. Right now it’s almost bare bones. Please let us turn off music without turning off all sound 🥺

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2023-11-26, version 1.2.1*

There are more ads then play time

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2023-10-31, version 1.2.1*

Bad design, terrible instructions. The only thing that was clear was how to spend money.

### 4/5 — Decent

*2023-08-23, version 1.2.1*

Kind of confusing at first, but becomes pretty straightforward. The AI is way ahead of you and will easily outgun you. So if you're up for a challenge. This is the game for you.

### 3/5 — Aspect ratio???

*2023-07-04, version 1.2.1*

For me, the aspect ratio is off a bit so I can’t see all the info and buttons. Specifically, when you go into the world info screen, I can’t see my number of planets and fleets, and the “L” in “Lost in space” is cut off. If this could be fixed that would be awesome

### 5/5 — な

*2023-07-02, version 1.2.1*

な

### 5/5 — Awesome game!

*2023-05-24, version 1.2.1*

I love this game so far, but after a while, you end up giving up to start again as the AI is way ahead of you and can easily destroy you.

What would be cool to see Is a game mode where each player starts with only 1 planet maybe?

### 5/5 — Great Control

*2023-05-01, version 1.2.1*

The control of the fleet as a group or asIndividuals

### 4/5 — The UI

*2023-04-02, version 1.2.1*

Hello, this is a nice game but I’m currently having troubles with the UI, it isn’t properly fitted on my screen and is kinda hard to play, If this could be fixed, it’ll be five stars from me

### 5/5 — Great

*2023-04-01, version 1.2.1*

Great

### 3/5 — Do I like lost in space

*2023-01-29, version 1.2.1*

Yes I think it’s a great game

### 3/5 — Decent

*2023-01-15, version 1.2.1*

Kind of confusing at first, but becomes pretty straightforward. The AI is way ahead of you and will easily outgun you. So if you're up for a challenge. This is the game for you.

### 5/5 — Could improve with a lot of potential for an online game

*2022-12-11, version 1.2.1*

This game is amazing, a perfect game that is mobile so you can go anywhere while playing it. The game has a lot of potential but I’m interested with diplomacy in this game.

### 5/5 — Very engaging

*2022-10-24, version 1.2.1*

I recently beat the game, and i have to say it was very entertaining and enjoyable, and through a lot of it i was on the edge of my seat. But strategically maneuvering all of my fleets to attack the last planet was extremely satisfying. I cannot wait for more versions of this game to come out that you have in progress! I really hope your team will still finish the other projects :( Edit: This game had a lot of potential, and in just a few updates I would still be hooked. Sadly, the game has grown stale because of bugs and lack of development. RIP(PLEASE BRING IT BACK, I STILL WANT IT ON 10/23/22)

### 5/5 — Lost in space

### 1/5 — Continues to run wen closed killed my experience

*2023-12-08, version 1.2.1*

Please fix and update or the game is dead

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2023-07-25, version 1.2.1*

Completely unplayable. Download and and see for yourself.

### 1/5 — Days or years?

*2022-01-03, version 1.1.93*

It’s been 3 years since the game’s last update. I’ve sent multiple reviews consisting of suggestions and complaints that have been repeated by many other viewers/players. Still nothing has seemed to change. It is clear to me that this game has been abandoned, unless those weddings are still holding you up. If you ever see this, which I doubt you will, let us know if your ok, or alive. Then we can finally stop waiting for the updates you said were coming 2 to 3 years ago.

### 1/5 — Tut

*2021-07-19, version 1.1.93*

Was für Tripleclick? Geht nix.

### 1/5 — Unresponsive, unintuitive controls, incomprehensible tutorial

*2020-11-13, version 1.1.93*

What are the fingers pointing at in the tutorial? What buttons do what? Why do squads only move 5% of the time when you tap to move them? Why does none of the language used in the tutorial pop-ups correspond to any of the language used in the buttons and controls? Tell me what button to press and what it does, don’t pose riddles?

### 1/5 — Bought packs

*2020-10-10, version 1.1.93*

I bought some packs in the game and accidentally reset the entire game I just basically lost money for nothing not even the ads free pack stayed and I saw now way to restore purchases.

### 1/5 — Fake reviews

*2020-09-11, version 1.1.93*

Coins coins coins.. ahh let me say this again, purchase coins with real money in order to “Build ships” that’s right.. you are required to pay real money to even build ships “units” in this horrible fake reviewed and ratings game.. literally all other resources don’t apply to this game as u still need to purchase coins to construct additional units and or proceed with research for upgraded ships!! Stay away from this game! Don’t let the 8-bit graphics fool you!

### 1/5 — Are the devs lazy?

*2020-07-01, version 1.1.93*

Rather disappointed with this. It’s clear the devs aren’t paying much attention to this game as the silly bugs I’ve been experiencing are hilarious, with a game like this, which requires a considerable amount of effort & attention, I wouldn’t expect a bug where; if a full fleet of ten destroyers are all stood on top of one another & one gets killed, the whole fleet gets whipped, that’s almost half hour of build time, how patient do you think everyone is right now in lockdown? Fix your quite rankly, pathetic app

### 1/5 — Good start, bad matchups

*2020-07-01, version 1.1.93*

The game was enjoyable for the first few hours, I collected 25 planets and around 120 ships. Then 6 grey carriers came in, destroyed almost all of my resource planets, and most of my fleets. I checked and by sacrificing 40 of my ships, I only did 30 damage to one of the carriers. They have 100 hp and pretty much one shot my ships with their insane range. What’s the point of playing and grinding if it all gets destroyed by over leveled troops?

### 1/5 — Awesome

*2020-06-27, version 1.1.93*

Game. But 1 star till you drop an update. I’ll be waiting to spend until then

*2026-06-01, version 1.2.1*

### 5/5 — The best game ever

*2025-11-21, version 1.2.1*

This game is so addictive I love it I hope they continue giving support to this game this game really can go far if the support team get on top of this game

### 5/5 — 재미는 있습니다만

*2025-10-24, version 1.2.1*

후속작이 아예 없는게 흠입니다. 기존 컨텐츠는 1만원대 과금이면 5시간 이내로 끝나는 정도고요. 후속 개발이 2020년도에는 다 될 예정이라고 해서 와봤는데 뭐가 없네요; 회사가 망한건지 뭔진 모르겠다만 저녁 시간 킬링으론 나쁘지 않습니다

### 5/5 — Eso

*2025-10-13, version 1.2.1*

Si real

### 5/5 — Nice game!

*2025-07-07, version 1.2.1*

Dear creator, it are few space RTS game like this are rarely seen. And also, may I please you to add a new type of spaceship? Maybe like a small star fighters squadron? If so, thank you!

### 5/5 — Worlds best space war game

*2025-07-01, version 1.2.1*

This game is the 
best

### 5/5 — Oh yea

*2024-02-18, version 1.2.1*

Good stuff here. Would be better with some technology weapons upgrades and types.

### 5/5 — Craig Hodson

*2023-08-04, version 1.2.1*

I love Maxwell Jenkins more than red white and black matter and I really need him to ring me so he can emotionally support me. I love him with all my heart soul. He just is so unbelievable he knew when I was on the slots in grosvenor Bolton that I really needed him. But I don’t want it to become our future gambling but we know we love that place we feel so safe there but then there’s days out to Southport with lovely people and feeling safe walking outside together. Man I need him with me now

### 5/5 — Very fun!

*2023-08-03, version 1.2.1*

Love to play this game!
