### 3/5 — Stop!!

*2025-04-09, version 1.3.28*

I like the game but I keep getting prompted to subscribe to Gameclub but I’m already subscribed.

### 2/5 — Ok

*2020-05-01, version 1.3.15*

We want the original one with the story this is just a shoot em up!

### 4/5 — Asteroid-Like

*2016-07-11, version 1.1.0*

Very much like asteroids, my favorite game growing up! Plays well, 'specially since I discovered autofire, lol!

### 3/5 — Disappointing compared to the original

*2015-03-09, version 1.1.0*

Lacks the storyline of the original and most of the upgrade options. This turns it into yet another generic asteroids clone. Lack of saving further hinders play. 

Don't get me wrong, this is a fun game but it pales in comparison to a story driven game and lacks many features that would make it more enjoyable.

### 4/5 — Pretty fun for what it is

*2014-02-19*

It's unfair to compare this to the Space Ore Miner role-playing game. But it's pretty fun for awhile. Think of it as Asteroids with much more substance.

### 4/5 — Major miner

*2013-06-03*

I've played several games of this type, and this is one of the best.  My only problem is that it crashes now and then on my iPad.

### 4/5 — Miners

*2013-05-11, version 1.1.0*

This is a fun game. You can mine asteroids, and even ones with purple bits that give you gold money.

And sometimes when the singing thing comes you can get blue money!

Although you do get blown up, so I am only giving 4 stars :)

### 3/5 — Fun and addictive but repetitive

*2012-10-07, version 1.1.0*

Cool but probably limited replay after you establish a decent high score.

### 5/5 — Love this game!

*2012-07-21, version 1.1.0*

Great game, would like to be able to save the game, especially at wave 40 and above! Extra lives would be good too.

### 5/5 — Simple but so addicting!

*2012-07-11*

I have never played a game that has given me so much fun!! Easy to get the hang of, and so many hours of fun...

### 5/5 — One of my favorites

*2012-07-09*

Very addictive. Especially in Ultimate level.

### 5/5 — Cracking Gromit

*2012-06-30, version 1.1.0*

Good clean fun for the loo!

### 5/5 — It's a blast! (no pun intended)

*2012-06-20*

Classic gameplay, sharp graphics and cool music, plus you can play your own music to the game! Just have music playing before you start!
I highly recommend this game to any Asteroids fan!

### 1/5 — Just a downgrade

*2024-08-21, version 1.3.28*

It’s just a worse version of space miner. I understand all the want to keep playing because the idea of getting an insane combo is awesome, but if you played both space miner and space miner blast, it’s already obvious which is better. Better graphics, better upgrades, an actual story and just way more content in general. I would give this a little better rating if the graphics were better and there were better upgrades. The player is just always scrambling to survive and it just makes me sad knowing this isn’t even just a special version. It’s just bad.

### 1/5 — Ruined by gamerclub

*2021-08-23, version 1.3.28*

Since becoming part of gamerclub this game harasses you with gamerclub ads. No way to disable.

### 1/5 — Good Rock-shooter!Get Blast-pack.

*2013-12-13, version 1.1.0*

iOS 7: 
Now the sound doesn't work. I thought it was an awesome game until this...
  Some apps have gotten
"updates" to fix bugs or other problems, but gee not this one!

### 1/5 — Poor

*2013-11-18, version 1.1.0*

Few things need to be fixed to be an OK game..

-optimize for Retina iPhone 5 screen size

-controls are laggy after 10 minutes of play. You press the screen and it won't respond.

Fix these and you have a 5.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2012-09-17, version 1.1.0*

Crappy endurance version of the original.

### 1/5 — Junk.

*2012-08-11, version 1.1.0*

A cheap money-grab riding the coat-tails of an awesome initial game. I loved the original, but wasted money on this one. I played it once and that's it.

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly

*2012-06-24, version 1.1.0*

None of my games lasted longer than two minutes before crashing.

### 1/5 — No adventure

*2012-04-08, version 1.1.0*

Really boring compared to Space Miner.

### 1/5 — It isn't free if there are ads!

*2011-12-02, version 1.0.1*

Space Miner is great with no ads. Truly free and amazing.  Blast is crippled garbage that come with ads even though it's part of their "free game weekend." 1 star for lying.

### 1/5 — So let me get this straight...

*2011-12-02, version 1.0.1*

After buying this game, you get ads and lots of iap?  For a suped up asteroids?  Seriously?
