Like a video. You don’t control or play. It shows you what a rocket launch is. ### 4/5 — Give it a break! *2018-07-05* Just notice that this is impressive for a single person to accomplish. Just chill out with the angry comments! ### 2/5 — Not a very good game...... *2017-10-20* As soon as I got on the game it said update required so then I knew the game wasn't the best and there are only three rockets so after launching the rockets three was nothing to do. ### 3/5 — It's ok... *2017-09-16* Well, let me start by saying I am crazy about spaceships, an I love this game. But then when I first opened the app, it said; "THIS GAME HAS EXPIRED. PLEASE UPGRADE." So when I saw the app for the second time, I saw exactly what it meant. So then I say; "Why is it not being upgraded?" I opened and closed the app over and over again. I'd close the app Completely, but that did nothing. So I turned my device completely off, but that also did nothing. And this game needs more detail. I would appreciate it if you added more controls and more planets that you can turn to and land on. I also would like if you added an ejection button and rovers so that you can explore a new planet. But that's not the point of this. But for some reason the polo 18 charged me $5.99. What?😕 But still this is an ok... game. ### 2/5 — Bad *2017-09-12* Pretty boring no steering I can't get into the ISS ### 2/5 — Not much *2017-07-25* There's no control over what happens and there's not much to see ### 1/5 — WORST GAME EVER *2017-05-05* do not buy this waste of space, all u do is click and a rocket goes into orbit. ### 1/5 — Utterly awful *2017-04-18* Don't listen to the positive reviews, they're not accurate. This "game" is basically just a badly done animation. Don't get it. ### 1/5 — Installiert und direkt gelöscht *2017-04-17* Zeitverschwendung.... peinlich ### 3/5 — Love it *2017-03-16* I love space all the space users this is the game for it and it needs more graphics. ### 1/5 — ...?? *2016-12-29* Ok in der Beschreibung steht, dass dieser "Simulator" für ein 19 Monate altes Kind gemacht wurde... Dort steht aber auch dass es erklären soll wie eine Rakete startet. Hat der Entwickler noch nie eine Rakete starten sehn?! Eigentlich ist 1 Stern einer zu viel. Und wer hat bitte 5 Sterne darauf gegeben? Warscheinlich nur verwante und bestochene!!! ### 1/5 — Ein kleiner Schritt für mich... *2016-12-26* ...und eine Schande für die Menschheit. Was hier als Spiel oder "Simulator" betitelt wird stellt sich als Sonntagnachmittagsspielerei eines Unity3D Users heraus. Wir können auf Knopfdruck 4 lächerlich undetaillierten Raketenmodellen bei einem automatischen Start (das Objekt bewegt sich halt nach oben) zusehen. Das ganze mit einem wundervollen Panorama aus ganzen 3 Pixeln. Nach dem Spektakel warpt die Rakete per Grafikfehler in einen stabilen Orbit und hier können wir sogar etwas steuern, nämlich die Geschwindigkeit mit der unsere sojusförmige Kapsel die Blau-braune Kartoffel unter uns umkreist. Dabei passieren wir die ebenfalls maßstabsgetreuen und unglaublich aufwändig gestalteten Modelle von Hubble, ISS und co... so lange bis wir den Button zum Neustart antippen. Apropos Buttons, entweder der Creative Director des Spiels wollte den Spannungsfaktor des Spiels erhöhen oder es mangelte Schlicht an Budget oder Hirn aber keine der immerhin fünf Schaltflächen des Spiels ist beschriftet. Immerhin also ein Rätselspiel mit Spielspaß von etwa drei Minuten bis alle langweiligen Features entdeckt wurden... ### 3/5 — Not bad *2016-12-05, version 1.6* A pretty nice simulation. If there were more rockets like the Soyuz. I would have rated it 4 ### 1/5 — Tried then deleted *2016-09-17, version 1.6* No labels on the controls ?? How dumb is that ?? Graphics are so bad you don't even want to go through the trouble of learning them ### 1/5 — Horrível *2016-09-13, version 1.6* Que vista o foguete tem no máximo três botões chega no espaço e a única coisa que vc faz e ficar em órbita perda de tempo ### 1/5 — Don't get this game *2016-09-12* Graphics poor, don't get to actually fly or control the rockets, then press grey in-labelled button at side of screen and it starts over? ### 1/5 — Sorry! *2016-09-09, version 1.6* You can't control anything. Not a game at all. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ide *2018-12-29* Stupid ### 1/5 — Horrible *2018-08-16, version 1.6* There r so many other rocket games that r better than this game for example Kerbal space program and space flight simulator ### 1/5 — Отстой *2017-09-29, version 1.6* Не игра, а ужас!!! ### 1/5 — Do not download *2017-09-02, version 1.6* This game stinks.

Let’s just say it was my favorite app, and I want to play it again. I beg you with all my might please can you adapt this for iOS 11 (which is what my iPad said) [and here’s a bit of backstory to help you understand when I was three I got a large black iPad I played many MANY happy games Fast forward some years when I was eight I got a new iPad Now it’s 2019 and all I want is some nostalgia] ### 5/5 — Love it! 🙉 *2016-05-30* Guys this game is fantastic! Launch/ launch the rocket into orbit And control it! Drive/ avoid getting destroyed /land go to the ISS!

Second the graphics are great for the purpose. Download and learn something new, but for heavens sake, don't complain that a free app is not as good as a professional production app that costs real money. Finally, to all those who can't spell, have bad grammar and complain about free games...didn't the example photos show you what to expect? ### 5/5 — To the haters *2015-02-17* FREE! pay for it he make make it better than better but because is free YOU DONT GET TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ITS GRAPHICS HE MADE IT FOR HIS CHILD AND HE LIKED IT SO GET A LIFE AND STOP GOING i want better game HE MADE IT FREE SO STOP COMPLAINING IF YOU CAN MAKE BETTER DO IT IF NO DONT COMPLAIN! 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 ### 5/5 — Muy buena *2014-11-23, version 1.6* La mejor app del mundo --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
