### 3/5 — Mods are completely bias

*2026-07-21*

It’s a cool game and could/would be even better if moderators weren’t so bias in choosing the people they interact with they pick and choose whom to help or not and more often than not if you’re not constantly spending or a big money spender they could care less about you reaching out to them on any issue I’ve even had one lie about in game response and when I screen shotted to show proof I got banned from discord chat and now I’m getting no responses from any emails sent

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-03-31, version 2.0.0*

Small things to improve just like any game, player base is 50/50 but just like any game. 5 stars because I could play for hours and not get bored.

### 1/5 — Get ready for lots of grinding and unfair battles

*2026-02-21, version 1.9.1*

Would not recommend this game to anyone as  it is very time consuming to level up. Meanwhile you have players who have been playing this game for years and can pounce on you as they please without penalties. They are level 100+ and you are only level 25. Or you choice is to stay in the safe zone where you grind for worn and inadequate gears. And they promote themselves as friendly… it is prey on the little guys, not let him be.

### 5/5 — Im meant to review the game

*2025-11-01, version 1.7.2*

It’s a fun PvP space game with NPC play SS well works with slow speed data which is nice .

### 3/5 — Would be great but

*2025-10-11, version 1.7.1*

Major PvE and major PvP engagements will just crash the game constantly no matter what platform you’re on.

### 1/5 — If you didn’t start playing when the game dropped don’t bother to play now….

*2025-09-21*

This game is insanely unbalanced. The market prices are insane, which is controlled by the player base which is very few. Also, the leveling system allows you to use more ships as you level unlike TIB 1 where you have one ship…. Now you have to worry about some lowlife no life. No that spends all this time in the game with 10+ ships compared to your one ship when you just start out.

This game is honestly a huge disappointment I played tib1 for 10+ years

### 1/5 — Don't waste your first impressions yet...

*2025-08-18*

Game has so much potential, but so little of it is realized. I highly recommend trying the game 6-9 months from now, hopefully by then the new development team will be able to get going and we actually see content. We haven't had a meaningful addition to the games content for almost 2 years. Instead we get empty promises, consistently missed self imposed deadlines and AI generated "news" posts. The game is not in a health state right now, but please come back to check it out later.

### 5/5 — An actual game

*2025-08-15*

This app is an actual game, not a money printer app where play is interrupted every 5 minutes with prompts to watch an ad or swipe your parents credit card for a boost to catch up with whales. It’s mmo-2D space combat crossed with looter / shooter mechanics. If you plan to play more than a day, I recommend skimming a new player guide from their discord or steam to help give some direction. I am enjoying it 2 weeks in, lots of live for Spellbook for making this game.

### 1/5 — So much potential

*2025-08-12, version 1.5.6*

The game itself has a lot of potential. It just isn’t finished. Very enjoyable early game and an excellent toilet game. Good to burn a few minutes here and there, but flounders over the long term for a few reasons. 

 The two brothers who run this game heavily favor some of their long time friends. It does not effect early gameplay at all, but as you become more involved it becomes increasingly obvious and hard to watch. They allow one faction to blatantly bot, script, and run alts. It is only when it is obviously flagrant that they take action. A recent example is a player was caught running Alts for a second time and was only suspended for 10 days.

 If it was simply lax enforcement it might not be a big deal, but it is also one sided enforcement. The bones for an excellent game are definetly there but the development team keeps fumbling do to lazy development, superficial content upgrades (loot boxes), and the previously mentioned buddy system.

### 2/5 — So much potential

*2025-06-18, version 1.5.6*

The game itself has a lot of potential. It just isn’t finished.
