If you are like me and play around in app builders this app seems like a re skin of a template. They did add custom ships and currency but it was buggy and they didn’t try to fix but keep adding more weapons and ships. 1- The ai is basic but that’s not the problem it’s the residence of the mobs. 2- Theirs the boarder wall that supposed to keep you and the bots in but it usually doesn’t effect you. 3- Fighting a infinite number of swarm type mobs with an immortal nest. 4- The collect objects sometimes brakes do to not able to pick up or out of reach do to world boarder started to work. 5- The boss on certain levels is impossible for a noob to beat do to no prier explanation of how the weapons and ships effect each other. The speed and power is an handful as well with the boss. Hears what needs to be fixed the economic balance first then fix the world borders. The resistance of ships should be knowledge available in the beginning along with the weapon upgrade system. Then balance the bots that have a resistance and the immortal issue. Item pick up is not a big just annoying to deal with but it should be fixed. So a youtuber made this game with many game braking flaws and expected children to beat the levels. On top of that the game is almost impossible to play with out buying something to progress. I know presten’s main watchers are very young to teen mostly. This app was popular with his fans but died out as they could not meet up with him. I came to see if they bothered to try with the app but I made this review because of the lack of updates. Presten currently has reduced his youtube videos for other media now so don’t except it to be as good as it does in his videos. Ps. Some of the ships were not custom but free models. ### 4/5 — Fun enough *2021-03-26, version 1.4.0* The game is fun, the gameplay loop is alright, but there’s definitely stuff about it that isn’t good. The gameplay loop is extremely simple and honestly lacks any real meaning. Some more game modes or some story would be nice. More forms of progression other than two upgrade screens that you use once every 5 to 10 runs. Something to spice it up a bit. Another issue I have is with the shield enemies in chapter 2-4. They’re just dumb and make the game unenjoyable. Being able to shield two enemies is absurd and when two or three get on the field basically every enemy is invulnerable until you kill the shield ships. Wouldn’t be an issue if you could choose who to aim at, but no, the game just wiggles your gun back and forth unable to decide who to shoot at, and makes it nearly impossible to kill the shield ships. Trying to kill a specific enemy feels so clunky that the game just gets very unenjoyable very fast. Not to mention other issues like enemies spawning right in front of you forcing you to lose all your momentum and get hit, losing all momentum when coming out of the upgrade screen (easy fix for this is give a boost like you do at the beginning of a war zone), and other small annoyances. It’s a game that has tons of potential, but just has a lot of minor over sites by the devs that add up and make the game frustrating to play. ### 4/5 — Good but I enjoy music *2021-03-03, version 1.4.0* It’s a good interesting game but the fact that I can’t listen to my music while playing isn’t as fun ### 4/5 — Bug fix? *2021-02-06, version 1.3.2* This isn’t so much of a review but a bug fix request. I just updated the app and every time I get to the 5th part of the war zone, everything freezes. The enemy ships stop firing and I’m stuck on the screen with no option other than to leave back to the Home Screen which deletes progress from that round. Help? Other than this I enjoy the game, it’s fun and enjoyable ### 4/5 — Wont let me open *2021-02-06, version 1.3.2* So it updated this morning and it will not let me tap to start. This is the first problem and I really enjoy this game so I would love for it to be sorted out ### 2/5 — Too much space *2021-01-31, version 1.3.0* I’ve heard that this is a great game. But it took me 30 minutes to download and when I go into the app it exits out of the game and goes into the home screen. ### 2/5 — Lag *2021-01-21, version 1.2.5* The game is fun to play but after unlocking the power ups like backwards and sideways shot it makes thee game almost impossible to play I mean if you mean to make something to make you feel powerful it need to work smoothly but half the time I feel like my phone crashed and after the lag spike I get boosted right into enemy fire and end up dying as for which it truly ruins the game ### 5/5 — Best Game *2021-01-06, version 1.2.5* I love this game almost as much as I like prestonplayz YouTubing he is the best and I learned about this game in his pillager 400th day hardcore raid it was so cool I’ve used the code PRESTON and got Amazing loot and the Preston ship is so cool I really like the cosmic prisons website it is so much fun anyway this is the best game ever!!!!!!!!!! ### 4/5 — can’tstop *2021-01-03, version 1.2.5* I can’t stop playing this game ❤️ ### 5/5 — LOVE YOU ROBBY *2021-01-01, version 1.2.5* Best game i’ve played in a while. and can’t wait for new updates and much more love you ### 3/5 — good *2020-12-29, version 1.2.4* the game is good but keeps freezing and it pisses me off ### 4/5 — SFX button doesn’t work *2020-12-28, version 1.2.4* I try and listen to my own music when playing and the SFX button won’t let me turn it of and it’s annoying so I don’t think it’s coded right ### 5/5 — AWESOME! *2020-12-20, version 1.2.3* THIS GAME IS AWESOME! I LOVE THE CONCEPT AND THE CONTROLS! Im on mobile so its EZ! Plus, this game is made by THE PARKOUR KING, PRESTONPLAYZ!

THANKS FOR MAKIN THIS GAME PRESTON! ### 5/5 — Love you rob *2020-12-18, version 1.2.3* Amazing game play it everyday ### 5/5 — Great game *2020-12-17, version 1.2.3* A mobile game that’s actually fun and progressive. Pretty much the only game I play on my computer. A quick tutorial would be a decent option to show how to use all the currencies. Great game very clean 5 stars. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Is this even a game? *2021-03-07, version 1.4.0* I seriously don’t know what the point of this game is, fly around and let the ship auto shoot at enemies? This is by far the worst mobile game I’ve installed on to my phone. Honestly I don’t know how they can even fix it, and make it fun. It’s a boring concept implemented terribly. Of all the mobile games out there, why put your time, and more importantly, your money, into this game? It’s mind numbingly boring, it might be a good game for kids. But if you’re over the age of 5, I don’t suggest playing or putting your money into it. ### 1/5 — Bad game *2021-03-04, version 1.4.0* The game is boring!! ### 1/5 — . *2021-02-18, version 1.3.2* I can’t get past the wasteland It won’t let me get past it the levels just repeats. I spent one hour on part 5 4/5 for over an hour ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2021-01-27, version 1.2.5* I would put a higher star rating but can’t even get past the first loading screen without it force closing on me I have checked to see if I have any updates and I don’t and the stores says my phone is capable of running the game but still force closing on me if it gets fix so can try the game I will consider changing my review. ### 1/5 — Bruh *2021-01-08, version 1.2.5* It doesn’t even load the game it just sits there and once it does load it just kicks you out of the game at least try to fix that ### 1/5 — I can’t get in the game *2020-12-15, version 1.2.2* I wish I can play the game but it just crashes all the time but when I can I will give it a better rating. ### 1/5 — 1 star *2020-12-15, version 1.2.2* 1st: if I could I would give this game 0 stars because I can’t even play the game without disconnecting 2nd: I did play 1 game and it was good ### 1/5 — Fix it *2020-12-15, version 1.2.2* I am writing this complain because every time I go into the app to play it will kick me out out.PLZ fix it ### 1/5 — No explanation *2020-12-13, version 1.2.2* There is no explanation for anything and no good way to unlock any of the ships by what I can see. You don’t have to try much to pass the levels as the gun auto kills all the stuff around me. If there was ways to unlock new guns or new ships this would be a fun game. ### 1/5 — Pay to win *2020-12-03, version 1.2.1* Almost every ship takes coins. I’ve played a very long time and have collected 140 coins. I am on chapter 10, and physically cannot get through it because I don’t have a better ship, but I cannot buy a ship only because I need coins. Overall the game has great fundamentals, and is pretty addicting to keep passing chapters to open more chests for loot , but I’ve played chapter 10 over and over for so long and now the only way to keep going is to pay for a better ship. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sub to prestonplayz *2022-06-27, version 1.4.0* Tysm for much for making the game ### 5/5 — There’s no Forget password? *2022-01-20, version 1.4.0* Will still give the game 5 stars as I love the game played it when it was released but the only Con is that now I’m getting back into the game on a new phone and I can’t for the life remember my password and there’s no option for me to reset it ? :/ :L *Insert Disappointing SFX* ### 5/5 — Wow just wow *2021-03-31, version 1.4.0* Can I just start off by saying that I am In love with this game ,I heard about this game when Woofless posted a video about this game titled “ our new game comes out this week” I had never tried it out but I have just started playing a day or 2 a go and I am enjoying this game a lot more than I thought , you guys have to keep up with this game and carry on with the updates for the people who play this game contanstly like I’ve been ,enjoy your day cosmic team 😘 ### 5/5 — Best Mobile Game!!! *2021-02-20, version 1.3.2* It’s The Best Game Ever It Has Great Graphics, Great Gameplay I Love It, It Is So Fun And Enjoyable Great Game, Thanks For Making It, Mad Respect For All Of You, Thanks!🔥🔥 ### 5/5 — Question. *2021-02-01* How do I get the Pstyles ship in StarQuest? ### 5/5 — Great Game! *2021-01-23, version 1.2.5* I have been a Cosmic fan for over 4 years.
