## What is Space Impact Watch?

THE LEGENDARY RETRO SHOOTER - ON YOUR WRIST, AND NOW ON IPHONE & IPAD!

Remember gaming under the school desk on those bulky, indestructible old phones? Relive those moments - under the office desk, on your watch. And now also on your iPhone and iPad!

Dive into the Space Impact world exactly as you remember it - with plenty of modern upgrades:

- All eight old-school levels with bosses, exactly as you remember them. Put that muscle memory to good use.
- Crisp, sharp graphics with the original retro sprites - without the ghosting of the old 84x48 displays. You can finally see what's happening on that tiny screen.
- NEW: fully playable on iPhone and iPad.
- Adjustable controls: gestures and the Digital Crown on the watch, on-screen buttons on iPhone and iPad.
- Three special weapons - deeply satisfying to fire.
- Worldwide Game Center leaderboard. Can you make the TOP 100?
- Infinite mode: finished all the levels and want more? Blast alien invaders for as long as your skills hold out.
- Butter-smooth movement and animations.

Space awaits - on your wrist!

### 4/5 — Nostalgic Throwback

*2026-09-05*

Really Appreciating the Throwback to the good old times, but I really miss the annoying loud sounds 😭😂🙏

**Developer response:** Are you sure? 🙂

### 5/5 — Simple, Fun and Worth Every Penny

*2026-04-22*

Despite the negative reviews I decided to give it a go and I wasn’t disappointed. I thoroughly enjoyed the game. It’s 100% worth 1 quid. It runs on the Apple Watch only which should be obvious. Huge thanks to the developer.

**Developer response:** Thank you for a posiy review. It's a passion project to me.

### 5/5 — Great Game!

*2025-05-06*

This is a great and fun game! I love playing this game! It’s fun and relaxing. I recommend this game to everyone with an Apple Watch.

### 5/5 — Please make a similar version for iPhone users.😀

*2023-08-26*

I really like this game. If possible, please make a similar version for iPhone users or make this game support iPhone. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you too! Will try to do it in the future as an update.

### 5/5 — Please make this available for iPhone 🙏🏻

*2023-06-22*

This game is such a classic and is made specifically for iWatches. If possible, please do make a version for iPhone users!! The clone versions yet similar, but aren't the same. I'd pay to have the OG Nokia version of it. Got the Snake '97, now only need this one:)

**Developer response:** Thank you. Phone version is not in plan right now, maybe later. Even though I believe, there are some other clones of this game for iOS on AppStore. 
Edit: it is playable on iPhone and iPad from now on!

### 5/5 — Bought it, but doesn't work on the iPhone, so

*2023-06-19*

please make this compatible/playable on phones, too!!

**Developer response:** Thank you. Phone version is not in plan right now, maybe later. Even though I believe, there are some other clones of this game for iOS on AppStore.

### 5/5 — Cool retro game.

*2023-01-20*

Brought back the time when I used to play these retro cool games. Must play game.

**Developer response:** Thank you!

### 4/5 — Great exceot distracting Nokia Overlay

*2022-11-28*

I would greatly appreciate the option to show black bezels rather than the Nokia 3310 Overlay as it is very distracting during gameplay

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. Unfortunatelly that will not happen. It did not look good. Trust me. I tried.

### 1/5 — Cannot play on iPhone.

*2022-10-29*

Warning: it says it’s compatible with iPhone as well as watch, but the game does not play on iPhone (the “leaderboards are broken on Watch” apparently). If this is meant to be exclusive to the watch then maybe it should not be listed under iPhone apps (and those previews imply that it works with iPhone but with a virtual Watch skin of some sort). It does NOT say in the description that the game cannot actually be played with iPhone, neither does it say that an iPhone can only be used to sync scores. Please take on board advice from customers and consider updating your listing and info so it is less misleading.  I would love to revisit this classic from the early days of mobile gaming (before everything became greedy pay-to-win garbage full of ads and pushing to constantly pushing to spend money).  I wouldn’t be prepared to fork out for a Watch just for this one app though. Shame 😔

**Developer response:** Sorry to disappoint you. There is stated in the description that apple watch is required. Even in the name of the game. iPhone app is currently used for high score sync, because that feature is long term broken on WatchOS. You can fill this form for refund if you wish so https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204084

Edit: it is playable on iPhone and iPad from now on

### 1/5 — Now it’s properly glitched after the update

*2022-10-02*

Placeholders instead of game graphics.

**Developer response:** This is a known bug causee by new WatchOS 9. Already working on fix.
