### 4/5 — Nightgate

*2025-12-23, version 2.0*

Great game, just can’t figure out level 14

### 4/5 — Super great!

*2025-01-13, version 1.3.2*

Nightgate is challenging but fun, has amazing graphics and gameplay but it doesn’t have enough levels. Truly a Work of art

### 3/5 — App support here takes you to a ranch realtor!

*2024-10-24, version 1.3.2*

### 5/5 — 😤

*2023-03-04, version 1.3.2*

Good game

### 5/5 — Geometric spirituality

*2023-02-09, version 1.3.2*

I’ve been playing this game on and off for a few years but I listen to the soundtrack regularly. Is this a hard game? No. That’s not why you play it. You play it to go to a different world. One with the lights off and a pair of headphones on.

### 5/5 — Excelente jogo

*2022-10-19*

Uma ótima trilha sonora 
Ótimos gráficos 
Mecânica incrível 
Muito bom pra quem gosta do filme Tron

### 5/5 — ❤️

*2022-08-23, version 1.3.2*

one of the most intriguing, puzzling, relaxing, and beautifully created games on the App Store.

### 5/5 — Slow burn

*2022-04-23, version 1.3.2*

I love this game. I’ve been playing it for the last three years off and on. I can pick it up, play a couple puzzles, and then put it down and do other things. It is so meditative and calm. With just enough challenge to make it interesting. The music in the background is quite ambient and fun! It really helps you focus.

### 5/5 — кк

*2022-04-17*

2 раза прошёл , спасибо за игру :)

### 5/5 — Underrated genius game with amazing soundtrack

*2022-02-04, version 1.3.2*

Bought a few years ago and replayed recently-had forgotten how amazing it was. More please!!!

### 5/5 — I’m not gonna lie

*2022-01-22, version 1.3.2*

This game was really fun and I enjoyed some of the challenges but I had no idea what the story was I didn’t pay enough attention but still this game is great

### 5/5 — Awesome 👏🏻

*2021-10-02, version 1.3.2*

It was a really great and attractive game I played 
Thank you

### 5/5 — Amazing.

*2021-09-08, version 1.3.2*

I love atmospheric games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R that manage to basically entrance you, and this game absolutely 100% scratches my atmospheric itch. I can’t believe I got it for free, I’ll definitely buy it again the day I get an iPhone. 10/10.

### 5/5 — Very cool. Must be seen to be believed.

*2021-07-30, version 1.3.2*

“Minimalist design doesn’t mean minimalist feel. Levels feel vast and otherworldly.  Also playable on Apple TV via the remote. Very, very cool.

### 5/5 — Nightgate

*2021-07-17, version 1.3.2*

Best game I have ever played the only thing wrong with it is that level 50 is easy to complete but that’s all great game!!!

### 5/5 — Immersive, Tech-noir Game

*2021-06-24, version 1.3.2*

I really enjoyed playing this and getting to the end. Visuals and music are top notch. Buy it, 5 Stars

### 5/5 — we need

*2021-06-07, version 1.3.2*

amazing game. but we need an update:(

### 4/5 — Gorgeous visuals and soundtrack, fun and entrancing

*2021-05-26, version 1.3.2*

This game takes you into a new headspace, entrancing you with it’s stunning, abstract visuals and Philip Glass esque soundtrack. The story is fascinating but the ending is disappointingly thin. That’s the only gripe though - it’s genuinely fantastic.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2021-04-27, version 1.3.2*

As a long haul truck driver this game is really helpful. I have to be able to focus and stay awake for many hours at a time so I play this game while I’m driving. Ha! Just kidding; I prefer Tetris when I’m “driving truck” (a lá Lorne Armstrong). This game is visually mesmerizing and as others have stated the sound design and soundtrack is really cool. It reminds me of the soundtrack from the movie Drive, full of pulsing, driving, retro side-chained analog synthesizer patches from the 80s/90s. Definitely worth playing for just about anybody.

### 1/5 — うーん

*2018-11-18*

楽しさが分からなかった
疲れるし
音楽を期待してやり始めたのですが
音もならないです

### 1/5 — Brilliant Scam

*2018-06-17, version 1.2*

This is the most extraordinary scam.
1. Pay money for the game
2. Download 
3. Never play it because the game closes and returns the user to the home screen after one second.

### 1/5 — Не могу управлять

*2018-01-31, version 1.2*

Всё конечно круто но я заметила один жирный минус.Пульт управления не позволяет управлять туда куда хочешь и в некоторые моменты пульт самовольно дёргается в разные стороны.А игра прикольная.ИСПРАВТЕ!!!!!Из за этого минуса не рекомендую!!!!Поставлю все 5 баллов другой игре а этой пока 1 балл

### 1/5 — Not for me

*2017-08-29, version 1.0.1*

OK for those who like to move a dot around a screen. No, I didn't play for that long, as you don't have to eat the whole cake to know you don't like the cake. Not much money wasted, fortunately.

### 1/5 — Simple

*2017-07-16, version 1.0.1*

Esperaba algo más emocionante, con gráficos futuristas con carácter de ciencia ficción, pero no es así, lamentó la compra.

### 1/5 — Dissapointed

*2017-04-15, version 1.0.1*

Doesn't even load. I have tried uninstalling then reinstalling, but this has not remedied the issue.

### 1/5 — ？

*2017-03-04, version 1.0.1*

ステージ30が意味不明

### 1/5 — Decepcionante

*2017-03-04, version 1.0.1*

Jogo sem graça, sem objetivo, sem atração, sem desafio. Joguei varias fases esperando que melhorasse, mas a cada nível uma nova decepção.

### 1/5 — Boring and easy

*2017-03-02, version 1.0.1*

Astetically pleasing for around 10 seconds and too easy for way too long.. add a little tedium after an hour of an extended and painfully dragged out tutorial and the difficulty drops.. instead of semi interesting dodging that requires atleast a quick check it drops to "have you figured out a pattern..? cool.. next level!" like i seriously ended up passing levels one handed whilst looking at the screen for 10% of the actual "gameplay" probably less :( dissapointed

### 1/5 — HORRÍVEL

*2017-03-02, version 1.0.1*

Jogo sem sentido e muito chato

### 5/5 — Please Create More Levels

*2026-05-27, version 2.0*

I really love this game. Please create more levels. We need more than 50.

### 5/5 — Amazing on the Apple TV

*2026-05-25, version 2.0*

Great on my Apple TV 4K with the new remote with the circular touch pad. It’s like it was made for this game!!

### 5/5 — I normally don’t write reviews but

*2026-02-27, version 2.0*

this app is amazing i have it on my phone and my desktop on steam this game is perfect for letting you shut the background noise off for a while

### 5/5 — Simple, beautiful and fun, and soundtrack is amazing.

*2026-02-25, version 2.0*

Gamer for decades, love playing this game, just awesome, fun, and puzzle solving without being annoying

### 5/5 — Nightgate

*2025-12-31, version 2.0*

Great game, hard not difficult

### 5/5 — Good God Semidome

*2025-05-05, version 1.3.2*

In over 13 years of having played various games and used the apps available to me on iOS, I have never left a review up until right now. This game is visually stunning, with a soundtrack that will pull you in and keep you there till the very end. The gameplay is the simplest you can imagine, but executed to perfection. The fun and thrill factors are on-par with anything else out there. Fantastic job.

### 5/5 — Sencillez con arte

*2025-02-15, version 1.3.2*

El manejo del espacio la profundidad y el tiempo crea una sensación tetradimensional espectacular. No hacen falta explosiones ni muertes ni cantidad de efectos para crear una maravilla visual, sonora y divertida. Gran trabajo, explorad esa estética.

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2025-01-07, version 1.3.2*

Best game ever

### 5/5 — INCREÍBLE

*2024-09-18, version 1.3.2*

Absoluta obra de arte, pocos juegos quedan de estos tan originales

### 5/5 — Прекрасно👌

*2023-11-02*

Прекрасная игра, затягивает, только не понимаю как сбросить прогресс и начать заново)
