### 3/5 — Crash crash crash

*2026-08-20, version 0.9.106*

Not bad. Keeps crashing though.

### 4/5 — Great game, likes to crash.

*2026-08-20, version 0.9.106*

Great game, only issue I’m having with the game is it really likes to crash when I enter combat with another ship. Game loads pretty quick and it seems to save my progress with the fight if I win or lose it’s just annoying I can’t participate in any of the gameplay in the pvp mode

### 4/5 — Just started

*2026-08-20, version 0.9.106*

I’ve been playing the first game for years and can say this is a big improvement to the original game play! My only complaint is the music is not as interesting as the first one.

### 3/5 — Access is just denied!

*2026-08-20, version 0.9.106*

A simple yet interesting spaceship simulation game. Just, the security of connection needed to be improved, the UI, and the algorithm for matching players to fight definitely. I guess i will play less after the silly 'access denied', thanks for helping me quit 👍🏻

### 4/5 — Better than pss 1

*2026-08-14, version 0.9.105*

For someone who played pixel star ships 1, I can say that here things seem more controlled. In a sense that you can use crewmates to affect certain systems. Would I recommend you play it 100 precent! but hey maybe thats becuase I am easily impressed. as for problems this game has a bunch of bugs! for example if you spam star bar pulls some cards may dissapear. i am unsure if the devs listen to player feedback or even care, but I am a pss 2 fan forever now!

### 3/5 — Pretty fun

*2026-08-06, version 0.9.105*

Pretty fun simple game that you can play a few minutes a day or longer when strategizing your ship design. Still a work in progress. It is very annoying that you can very very easily lose in game currency with a tiny click. Lost a months worth of it all at once. No confirmation or anything.  It’s happened half a dozen times due to the UI but the most recent time caused me to lose 3/4 of all of it that i had been working on building for a long time

### 4/5 — Good game BUT broken and some things seem copied and pasted

*2026-07-15, version 0.9.104*

I’d give 5 stars but there’s some things I’d like to go over with.

Ok so overall, game seems good and has potential BUT I can’t tell if some things were just lazily copied and pasted from the first game or the features weren’t fixed. For instance, there’s a message saying somewhere that players can revenge attack you if you attack them, yet I haven’t even found a way to see if you’ve been attacked besides finding the wins and loses on your profile. BUT, the feature where you don’t lose resources if you get attacked and you lose, so it won’t make some people rage out of the game.

Now for the game breaking bug, you can’t get past the “diplomacy envoy” mission. Not saying it’s too difficult, I mean once you get to the system, the mission isn’t found anywhere and prevents further progression through missions. Now you’re still able to upgrade stuff and aren’t completely soft locked, you cannot explore anywhere else you haven’t already. 

The market seems different too, it uses ONLY the money system (similar to gems instead of coins where you get them overtime, you gotta pay for them). And with the diplomacy envoy bug, you can’t get good loot or things to sell on the market. 

So overall: good game, seems to be still in development, some things seem copied and pasted, but still overall fun with some interesting mechanics like the O2 system.

### 2/5 — Constant Crashing

*2026-07-10, version 0.9.104*

This game has some potential. But it causes my phone to overheat within seconds of opening and crashes non-stop.

### 3/5 — I want to throw money at this but I can’t

*2026-07-07, version 0.9.104*

Game is riddled with bugs, like winning a fight and in doing so loosing xp and currency due to a bug, it’s fun don’t get me wrong but makes me want to stroke out due to factors out of my control bug wise.

### 4/5 — Good tutorial, very curious.

*2026-06-16, version 0.9.102*

Game seemed fun, but may not work well on a phone.  Things seem very small.

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2026-06-12, version 0.9.102*

Like a lot of people have commented, it’s very buggy

The prologue missions are absolutely horrible

You get stuck so many times you’re forced to restart

For example, a mission for building a room can push you into the build screen and if you don’t have enough resources, you can’t dismiss it so you have to restart the game
It doesn’t take into account if you have the room already half the time, so you need to restart

The missions give little or no help so you need to check and travel to multiple systems
There’s a big difference between open world exploration and scrambling blindly in the dark 

Dialogue menus aren’t scrollable in some cases so you don’t know what you’re researching

Weapons don’t seem to fire half the time graphically (damage does occur) and the AI commands are absolute trial and error, got most my setup from general chat and watching replays 

Having a 3d display and view of the ship is kinda pointless when the core mechanics are broken

### 1/5 — This place is toxic and mean towards new players.

*2026-08-09, version 0.9.105*

Sure the game is fun but it gltichy ad heck and then the hate and the attacks from peoplewhen i trie to ask for help they dont do much theybasicslly when i talk they dont asnwer or say i know what to do so they are no help at all i basiaclly relied on my self alot ok so yeah keep in mine is toxic ok it need improve ments before i bump it up to  5 stars thanks .

### 1/5 — Bug he’ll

*2026-08-07, version 0.9.105*

Literally anything is bugged

### 1/5 — 加速星舰，名不虚传

*2026-08-05, version 0.9.105*

不要费力充钱弄7星，不如多抽几个加速技能的人。

### 1/5 — Acceleration Starship

*2026-07-20, version 0.9.104*

This game is pretty straightforward. Just recruit as many crew members with the Emergency Acceleration skill as you can. All other paid crew are basically useless. Acceleration Starship truly lives up to its nickname.

### 1/5 — Still unplayable

*2026-07-15, version 0.9.104*

The very first tutorial mission cannot be completed

### 1/5 — Broken: prologue then reconnecting looping forever

*2026-07-01, version 0.9.103*

Unplayable due to bug.
When the game starts it loads to 50% then hangs for about 30 seconds, then the prologue starts but there is a network popup about reconnecting that counts down from 30. That always hits zero blocking the prologue and I’m returned to the start screen and it loads to 50% and repeat…
Impossible to use in-app support as the start screen jumps to the prologue automatically. Totally locked into a loop. Please fix

### 1/5 — broken

*2026-06-23, version 0.9.102*

ai slop coding has destroyed this game, hire more professionals. Great potential wasted

### 1/5 — Trash money grab

*2026-06-15, version 0.9.102*

Game is trash, you’ll win but still lose xp and currency fix your trash and maybe I’ll change my review but until then think twice about wasting time and money on this garbage

### 1/5 — After six months i can confidently say i am tired of waiting for the game to be fun

*2026-06-07, version 0.9.101*

Edit: pushing pride month on a game you label 9+ should be pedophilic

### 1/5 — Капец

### 5/5 — It’s very good

*2026-08-24, version 0.9.106*

It’s very good, but there’s a bunch of bugs some 3-D rooms bug out and go in a different axis then what’s supposed to do and the voice dialogue bugs out sometimes besides those glitches the game is very good. Keep updating this game.

### 5/5 — It’s like the original

*2026-08-18, version 0.9.105*

I don’t know what else to say but I’m happy for this game

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2026-07-25, version 0.9.104*

It’s been out for almost a year now and I’ve not had any issues with bugs at all, it seemed to have a rocky start according to the reviews, but none of that exists now.

Devs are great and are very active in their discord with regular updates for the community as well.

### 5/5 — Jogo bom

### 5/5 — A comment from a level 4 player

*2026-06-15, version 0.9.102*

Not bad so far

### 5/5 — Fantastic sequel to an already excellent game!!!!

*2026-06-10, version 0.9.101*

I’ve been playing the Pixel Starships game for about six months and I’m excited that your studio is doing well enough that you were able to produce a sequel and so far in my experience I’m still in the tutorial, but I am very much enjoying the graphics as well as the voice acting for all the various tutorial prompts and such. I’m excited to see how the story campaign goes. I appreciate all your hard work. I’m a big-time fan.
