### 2/5 — Login Keyboard wack

*2022-12-25*

Can't even log in to an existing account due to the keyboard that appears. It's off center screen so you cant click what you want and ultimately had it crash from me furiously trying to click the number change prompt. Wrong letters were being placed and couldn't change to symbols or numbers for the password. Guess this game dies to my memories since I can't even play it mobile

### 4/5 — Great game

*2020-06-07*

Politics are pretty intense.  Mods just keep it rolling tho.  

Just unfinished,  they came out with a new version which is still I beta so starting now is a great idea!!!  In game name : Hazard

### 2/5 — It could be better

*2019-04-12*

Infinite black is one of my favorite desktop games that I would play for hours. But this app lacks the simplicity of the game. A few issues I’ve had is the screen rotation only works in the positions the game starts in. Another issue is the UI is to bright and cartoony, in the way that makes it look like it was made on a poorly rendered flash game. All I’m saying is the other form of this app is better and so is the official game site

### 4/5 — Really good game

*2018-10-13, version 1.6.5*

Only issue is that it’s not optimized for iPhone X

### 4/5 — One problem

*2018-08-22*

It’s a great game exept it no longer works for me and crashes every time I open it

### 4/5 — Great game

*2016-11-25*

Time consuming and takes patience, but funnest game I've played so far and highly addicting. Shenandoah.

### 2/5 — Games ok

*2016-10-05, version 1.6.5*

The game is hard to start of as if you make a mistake and wonder in the black area you will have 20 veteran players kill you and lose gear drop rate is poor unless you own a special item to increase drop rate, game is challenging but worth a play would give more stars  if the game was a bit more balanced.

### 3/5 — Too bad it does not have a single player mode

*2016-09-07, version 1.6.5*

Too bad...

### 4/5 — Great game

*2016-06-23, version 1.6.5*

Engrossing great player network could use A lil polish thou

### 3/5 — Good but...

*2016-06-12*

It takes too long to reach level 15 when the graphics and combat is so simplistic. If this game were in 3D, it would be phenomenal.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2016-06-02*

I'm not really into MMOs but this one is really good. You do have your ups and downs on it but other then that I would say it is a good game.

### 4/5 — Crash

*2016-05-06*

Hey this game seems great compared to most space MMO games out there however it keeps crashing every 2-5minutes which is very frustrating and it causes my iPad to get extremely hot. Need to get that fixed ASAP!

### 1/5 — Will not work on IPhone 11

*2026-03-28*

For some reason everytime I try to login, the Home Screen is always too far zoomed in. It won’t let me zoom out. It’s really hard to get help from the support staff.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2017-10-26, version 1.6.5*

Not fun for new players. Big players bully small players. Lots of bugs. Moderators allow players to scam others and do not do anything about it

### 1/5 — Too many changes

*2016-12-24*

Been playing for a long time, too many changes, your too dependent on having others online to play without getting repeatedly killed.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2016-05-06, version 1.6.5*

I really enjoyed this game until 3 days ago. Now it crashes e dry 15-60 seconds. It's unplayable.

### 5/5 — Good community

*2021-09-17, version 1.6.5*

Game is ok the first person shooter is challenging enough. Support is there if you need it. Community is good lots a good people. Beware some people have played this a long time and are less then friendly. Overall if you pay attention to the good players you can enjoy the game.

### 5/5 — Still 5 Stars

*2020-04-07*

I’ve been playing this game on and off since 2012, and I must say, even after all that time, this game is still AMAZING! I love it. Check it out, you’ll love it too.

### 5/5 — Great

*2018-11-14, version 1.6.5*

Honestly the best game I’ve very played.

### 5/5 — Best Gameplay Experience of a Lifetime

*2018-06-28*

The Infinite Black has been my second home since 2012... I have played for years taken breaks saw new people saw some go away... the mods are fun and friendly, The game is fan ran and anything in this game was made by you!(players) This is the best MMO game I have played in my life... And will continue! The game is run by a small and dedicated group, amazing players, grinding game, don't buy in app purchase buy online, have fun, don't die, fight and win!

Would recommend to anyone! If you need help contact me (AirKitt)

[This version is outdated and may not work for you if you want grey or blue server... Use Red to play if you intend to use this version otherwise use version 2.0]

Good luck!

### 5/5 — The Infinite black

*2017-12-13*

Cool realistic game.

Game version is out of dat I I miss it please use other version trying to use this is a waist of time

### 5/5 — One of my favorites

*2017-05-22*

I've been playing for quite some time. The game can get quite frustrating sometimes and quick assumptions can be made like those of the negative reviews on here due to that. TIB is one of my favorite games. It really is about teamwork in the long run and I have made some great friends on here in the years I've played. The community of TIB is magnetic. It really puts the game together. I love it. I'd suggest it to anyone. Give it a try! 
In-game name: G32
Server: Gold

### 5/5 — Decent game

*2016-10-30, version 1.6.5*

Xit from gold server. Beastmode corp. Decent game with sustainability for years. Deep tactical game with solo and group play possible. Lots of people to play with on all servers. Loving it so far. Hats off

### 5/5 — 10/10 game

*2016-10-29*

One of my most played mobile games, this one is one of the few that doesn't require a ton of money to be good at. If you're reading this you should come join the gold server, BIOHAZARD Alliance

### 5/5 — Great game

*2016-05-06, version 1.6.5*

Since the opening of the gold server I seem to be constantly getting kicked out of the game

Cradster

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2016-04-18, version 1.6.5*

Great low tech mmo, plays great. There's also another (advanced) client on the AppStore that's good once you get used to the game.
