### 4/5 — Great game

*2026-08-15, version 0.999.59*

Love the game but I think you could add more factions and new ship classes but over all the game is a ton of fun.

### 4/5 — Awesome.

*2026-08-08, version 0.999.59*

Pretty sweet.

### 5/5 — The Long Game

*2026-07-24, version 0.999.59*

This game starts simple and gets much more complicated over time. I have been playing for a year now. Join a top 100 fleet so you can learn it. I will see you in Legend League!

### 5/5 — Please stop asking me to rate the app

*2026-07-24, version 0.999.59*

Like the game but every time I log in am asked to rate the app multiple times which is annoying

### 5/5 — After new download

*2026-07-18, version 0.999.58*

Can’t play missions after new download

### 5/5 — This the GOAT

*2026-07-12, version 0.999.57*

### 5/5 — Pixel Starships

*2026-07-03, version 0.999.57*

This is actually a fun game to play in my spare time!

### 4/5 — Beautiful but mysterious

*2026-07-01, version 0.999.56*

First, this is a great game. Really well thought out and detailed for the pixel landscape it lives in. They give you multiple avenues to play in and the story is pretty rich if you read through the quests. Currently my only gripe and the reason it’s not 5 stars is the level of detail in the game to explain how things truly operate. How do vent shafts work? Where did the equipment go that I just earned? Why can’t I give certain equipment to this person but I can to this person. What level do I unlock this items use so I know when to utilize it (modular components)? It’s extremely well thought out and fun to play! I’d recommend anyone to try it out.

### 5/5 — Downloaded because Birb

*2026-06-30, version 0.999.56*

Cool game

### 5/5 — Dark web

*2026-06-26, version 0.999.56*

It gives a feel of exploring and doing what it is best to do.

### 5/5 — Still some bug with UI but now better

*2026-06-26, version 0.999.56*

### 1/5 — Разработчики

*2026-08-01*

Спасибо за русофобию(

**Developer response:** Мы ценим ваш отзыв и понимаем, что вы испытываете недовольство. Ваша обратная связь важна для нас, и мы стремимся создать комфортную атмосферу для всех игроков. Спасибо, что поделились своим мнением!

### 1/5 — Earning bux is a scam

*2026-07-12, version 0.999.57*

There’s a ship that flies by that when you click it you can play a game and earn bux the premium currency in the game but when you do it they say oops guess it didn’t work and don’t ever give you the bux so you essentially get scammed

### 1/5 — boring

*2026-07-11, version 0.999.57*

1 star because a gunship cant even compete with any other build where is the balance

### 1/5 — Agressive Pay to win

*2026-06-05, version 0.999.54*

The game is so good, but the greedy mechanic of the developers won’t let you progress if you don’t pay for it, and the game hits you heavily with offers and payed rewards.

### 1/5 — 换绑邮箱强制充值

*2026-05-23, version 0.999.54*

这个游戏除了账号找回和客服其他的都很好，换绑邮箱功能形同虚设，零氪玩家完全无法换绑，说要充钱才可以，意思是盗号贼盗走你的号后充0.99$就归他了？玩家人数那么多连一个一键换绑邮箱或账号找回功能都没有，一旦邮箱收不了消息账号就完蛋，真是想钱想疯了

### 1/5 — Disappointing money sucker

*2026-03-24*

I played this game 6-7 years ago loved it but it was addictive and had great progression, and then suddenly became that you couldn’t really progress without spending hundreds of pounds and I thought hey I’ll invest get over this ledge get to the next tier of gameplay but guess what yup another expensive upgrade needed for reference I calculated I’d have to play hardcore every day for 9 months or pay £200 
At that point I stopped I’ve come back time to time to see if the greed has subsided and it’s as bad as ever sad as I did have a good ship and a decent  “pay to win weapon” but even with £300+ invested in the game I’m still unable to enjoy a fraction of the content without at least a solid year of hard core grind I don’t have that time or self control to not spend so can’t recommend sadly it guts me we can’t just have £40 games that give everything and 1-2 years of playability

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry you didn’t like the monetization approach. We take all the feedback seriously and will work on further improvements.

### 1/5 — why

*2026-03-22, version 0.999.48*

why do you let a couple fleets take most planets. greedy fleets ruin the game for everyone. also why do you allow predatory ads in your game with microscopic/ fake close buttons. game crashes every 5 min unplayable

### 1/5 — Z

*2026-03-09, version 0.999.48*

Those little one space blocks that defend your ship from damage when you put them in your inventory after you make and remove them every time you want to click and drag to place them that damn advertisement video ship flies right on top for like 30 seconds so you can’t click on it you should really fix that also for a game that is pixels with little going on there is more latency than on call of duty or delta force which baffles me as there’s like nothing going on so many reduce the data you’re trying to pull from my device other than that a good balance of not to time consuming and not too easy but still a novel strategy challenge

### 1/5 — 10 years?

*2026-03-02, version 0.999.47*

10 years and everything still broken. how do you manage that?

### 5/5 — Horrific experiences

*2026-08-25, version 0.999.61*

The game is great, amazing, somewhat P2W, somewhat P2L. You have to understand so much about yourself and other people to be able to get a chance at that leaderboard. Personally highest ranked I got was 187th. I’ve spent hours agonizing over command sequences on a third party site. The comprehension level and overall creativity of the player had to be top tier to get top 100. The devs are good people most of the time and there are community polls on discord and stuff. But god does this game take a while to understand. There are people with 10 accounts each because just one wasn’t enough. This game is amazing on a complex level but only if you have the patience to get there.

PS: if you get the game join red barons ;)

### 5/5 — Great progression without mandatory ads

*2026-08-23, version 0.999.60*

Doesn’t lead from a quick early progression into nonstop monetized advertising. Engaging mechanics all round.

### 5/5 — Having fun so far

*2026-08-23, version 0.999.60*

I love the cheekiness

### 5/5 — Simply amazing

*2026-08-23, version 0.999.60*

How did they get so much awesome saucer rock starshipper pixels to render? Community is incredible and drives constant development! 
   Free to Play is totally viable.

### 5/5 — Cute fun space game

*2026-08-21, version 0.999.60*

It’s so cozy to play!:)

### 5/5 — I like

*2026-08-17, version 0.999.59*

I like

### 5/5 — Keeps you occupied

*2026-08-01, version 0.999.59*

Fun game, mechanics are easy and complex. Fun style.

### 5/5 — Great game with great community

*2026-07-30, version 0.999.59*

I’ve been playing for about 2 months now and the community is very active and helpful to new players. There are also various levels of strategy that can be used that slowly get more complex as you play further. It isn’t too overwhelming at the start and it hasn’t gotten stale as I’ve progressed further. Highly recommend to people who enjoy strategy games!

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-07-27, version 0.999.59*

I think y’all should really fouces on character bios and add more factions it’s a great game but I think the blue crystal and purple gas should cost least so it could be more enjoyable

### 5/5 — 5 stars.    Game Center doesn’t sync

*2026-07-26, version 0.999.59*

This is one of the few games where you don’t have to be a punching bag for Premium payers.  
Game center doesn’t sync though.
