### 1/5 — Yeah no

*2016-04-30, version 1.2*

This game is old as hell, your probably never going to get this game, but in case you are well the best way to describe this game is AIDS. Yeah it's that bad, don't get this game my brotha

### 3/5 — Sandbox?

*2016-03-01, version 1.2*

If you got your hopes up thinking its an open world space game it's not. It is a simple and ok defense game where you are a turret protecting a space ship which you control with your phone or tablet.

### 1/5 — Do not download this game

*2015-06-08, version 1.1*

It.crashes when you try to play it

### 2/5 — Potential

*2014-07-13*

Looks good but the controls are like marmite, you either love em or hate them. Keep trying guys

### 4/5 — Pretty good.

*2013-07-07*

Having to shoot all around the ship 360 degrees is hard and different, not just shooting straight ahead. Its good how it Only takes up 96 mb on my ipad, not huge like galaxy on fire 2, with the graphics I was expecting to take up more.

### 3/5 — Good

*2013-05-30*

It is a good game but the graphics are poor.
