### 5/5 — A true classic throw back game

*2021-10-07, version 1.0.8*

Great throw back arcade game.

### 5/5 — Un retour en enfance

### 5/5 — A great shooter

*2020-11-18, version 1.0.7*

Another great arcade conversion. But please add an IAP to remove adverts

### 5/5 — Best reunion arcade

*2020-11-14*

It actually made easy goes harder but I really love arcade.

### 5/5 — Fabulous nostalgia trip

*2020-11-13, version 1.0.7*

I played this in the 80s, bought it on megadrive and now playing it on the iPad. It is awesome!

### 5/5 — Très bon

*2020-11-02*

Très bon jeu. Gratuit si l’on accepte de regarder quelques Publicités. Je ne connais pas trop ce moyen de rémunérer l’éditeur du jeu. Mais cela ne me semble pas trop embêtant. Merci en tous cas de nous mettre à disposition un très bon SHMUP.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2020-09-27, version 1.0.7*

A perfect arcade conversion and generous rewards allow you to start the game with maxed out power which is a treat.

Would love to see Truxton 2 given the same love! 😊

### 5/5 — Truxton is awesome

*2020-09-14*

This game is exactly how I remember the arcade game. I love it. I only wish I could just pay one amount for the whole game.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2020-09-12, version 1.0.7*

Amazingly well done

### 5/5 — Fantastic Classic

*2020-08-16, version 1.0.7*

Put this into the search engine thinking it would be futile but found this.... fantastic game, just as I remember. Addictive doesn’t describe it. Top marks :)

### 5/5 — BEST ARCADE GAME EVER!!!!

*2020-06-23, version 1.0.7*

Thanks so much for making this, it’s amazing. Graphics and music are immaculate. Perfect!!

### 5/5 — Un.must have

*2020-05-10*

Tatsujin de som nom nippon, ce jeu tout comme TwinCobra cobra à la même époque est véritablement un hit arcade. Dur, mais prenant, ce jeu est énorme. Cependant il est préférable d’y jouer sur iPad si possible. Il y a même eu un 2 de ce jeu. A quand la sortie de Hellfire ? Bientôt j’espère !

### 5/5 — Certified Classic

*2020-04-11, version 1.0.7*

Truxton’s an all time favourite. 10/10

### 1/5 — Truxton Ruined by adds

*2020-01-14*

Truxton is one of the best Shooters of all time!
Sadly this game is ruined by adds.
Sure it’s free but I would have rather paid $4.99 and gotten Truxton add free, but that is not an option.
To me this is like slapping stickers on the Mona Lisa.
Will just have to keep playing Truxton on my Genesis, as this corporate abomination will be removed from my device.

### 2/5 — Ads: The Game

*2020-05-19*

So many ads, including more than a few that show misleading gameplay (the same type that are all over Facebook). I think I’m done with this one. Shame, because Truxton was always fun on the Genesis back in the day.

### 2/5 — Peu de configurations disponibles

*2019-09-26*

Le ratio d’origine n’est pas respecté sur mon iPhone XR, et ce n’est pas configurable. Tout comme le fait d’activer ou non les scalelines. Dommage

### 4/5 — Great game but too many ads

*2024-07-07*

Please, please add an IAP to remove forced ads. This is a great game and don’t mind ads for rewards but the forced ads are killing me. Would happily pay to remove them.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2024-04-30*

Would have been a 5 star if red still had it’s bullet shield at max rank. Seriously that’s the big reason why you would use red so enemies ramming into you don’t kill you. Blue is wide sweeping, green is super accurate, and red is a balance of the two.

### 4/5 — Truxton 89’

*2020-07-30*

The Red power should have the rainbow lasers around them once you max them out... Not sure why it’s different on this version, guess it is what it is

### 4/5 — Classic shmup

*2020-07-22*

So happy to play this old favorite. Gameplay is very good. I could not give it 5 stars because there is no way way to remove ads.

### 4/5 — Nostalgia!

*2020-05-22, version 1.0.7*

I was so excited to play this again after so many years. It’s just like I remember and I can’t stop playing. My only criticism is that there doesn’t seem to be a left handed setting. I use my left hand to control the ship so using the bomb is a bit awkward. Otherwise it’s brilliant.

### 5/5 — You made an old Classic Game Room fan happy

*2026-05-26*

I am so happy that this game is on the App Store!
You’d make Lord Karnage proud. 5 Stars!

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2024-12-20*

This is a great translation of one of my all time favorite shooters!

### 5/5 — Supberp Rendition

*2024-12-05*

Very Accurate Port Of Truxton From FB Alpha Classics Vol.3 For The PS2 With Some Minor Touchscreen Control Tweaks This Is Also Similar To The HBMAME 0.239 Romset Version Of Truxton.

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2023-08-24*

I thought I wrote a review for this game earlier but I don’t see it so gotta write another! Simply one of the best late-80’s scrolling shooters ever, and Mobrix has done an excellent job bringing back the awesome fun, beautiful backdrop and excellent soundtrack. The replay value is out of this world, and even though I think I’m pretty good at scrolling shooters, after 2+ years I still haven’t beaten the game on easy setting without extending in full power multiple times right at the end. It is 2023 and I look forward to finding the time that I can just dedicate an hour to playing three attempts to beat the game; it is that hard and that much fun. Well done, Mobrix, your game is on all of my Apple devices!

### 5/5 — Retro shmup classic

*2023-06-30*

I loved this kind of game on real arcade machines and the phone version is great fun too.

### 5/5 — Greattttttttttyy

*2023-03-15, version 1.0.8*

Yes

### 5/5 — Le meilleur

*2023-03-11*

Je suis très heureux de retrouver le jeux d’arcade sur lequel je m’arrachais les cheveux étant gamin. J’en avais mis des pièces de 5 francs dans cette machine sans jamais avoir réussi à le finir. Cette fois peut-être ?…

### 5/5 — Impressive

*2023-01-13, version 1.0.8*

Amazing to play this arcade game on the iPhone. Kudos to the developers who managed to tweak parts of the ROM to have a customised version like this.
The only niggle is the bomb 'button' isn't as responsive as you need in a tight situation, but given you can maneuver your ship faster than in the arcade version, and auto fire is on, this generally is not a problem.
Thank you.

### 5/5 — Excellent Remake!

*2022-07-13, version 1.0.8*

So much nostalgia of childhood playing Truxton on the Sega Megadrive (So many wasted hours). It would be perfect on an iPad and ideally with a controller, playing on the phone using fingers is difficult because your fingers block your view. 
Great job we need more Sega remakes.

### 5/5 — At last I found it.

*2022-06-03, version 1.0.8*

Searched for this game for many years, just craving for my days on Shea mega drive. It has not disappointed just wish I had the same reflexes as I did back then.
