I really like it as I can play it pretty much anywhere I can walk. However, there is an issue with the game that needs fixing. That is that whenever I feed my animals on my planet, they are still hungry. This is a persistent issue and needs to be fixed. ### 4/5 — Lots of fun! *2026-08-17, version 7.34.0* This app is a great way to motivate you to get your steps in for the day. I only wish that it could sync with other devices like Fitbit because I can't carry my phone at me all day (at work). ### 4/5 — Cool *2026-08-09, version 7.33.8* Easy game to play ### 4/5 — 更新完最近一版变得好卡 字体也不习惯了 *2026-07-25, version 7.33.7* 十几年老用户 更新完最近一版变得好卡 字体也不习惯了 而且为什么还不能连接apple watch？？？这是最需要的更新啊 ### 4/5 — Cool *2026-07-24, version 7.33.7* 🪄 ### 5/5 — Recommended *2026-07-24, version 7.33.7* Played it 10 years ago, now as a returning player it is still fun! ### 5/5 — Sooooo amazing 🤩 *2026-07-23, version 7.33.7* This is the best walking app that I have ever gotten. I love that it’s like a video game.❤️ ### 5/5 — Good *2026-07-23, version 7.33.7* Good ### 5/5 — 小行星♥ *2026-07-22, version 7.33.7* 大学开始断断续续玩了十年，虽然现在发现星星很慢很慢了，但是开星星盲盒超开心！也有一些督促我走路的作用吧…… ### 3/5 — 运动类休闲游戏 *2026-07-22, version 7.33.7* 运动结合游戏，模式相对简单，打发时间的平台 ### 5/5 — Good Game *2026-07-21* Top ### 5/5 — I’m in love. *2026-07-21, version 7.33.7* As an Astronomy nerd, and someone who likes the know the smaller facts—like my steps—this is beautiful. ### 5/5 — 好玩 *2026-07-20, version 7.33.7* 健身也可以玩游戏 ### 5/5 — Low Friction *2026-07-20* You don't need to keep the app open while walking. It quietly counts steps in the background via your phone's built-in motion processor. ### 5/5 — 赞 *2026-07-18, version 7.33.7* 鼓励更环保的方式通勤，激励我更多走向户外！ ### 3/5 — Would be fun… if it weren’t for that energy cap. *2026-07-17, version 7.33.7* Tried it… after 3 days, I deleted it. That cap of 10k energy instead of a more flexible 100% energy for 24h just kills it for me as I’m walking 15-20k steps a day and only open it at night. Otherwise it just turns into yet another thing I have to manage on its time instead of at my own schedule. ### 4/5 — Fun! *2026-07-16, version 7.33.7* Fun app but could do a better job of syncing across platforms. ### 5/5 — Free satellite! *2026-07-16, version 7.33.6* Write to get a free satellite! Great game to get you moving! ### 3/5 — バグが多い *2026-07-16* 困る程ではないけどとにかくバグが多いです。 まだ探索途中の星の住人がメッセージを送ってきたり、とある星の住人が左に歩く時だけデカくなったり見えなくなったりする。 他にも、1回ずらさないと資源を回収しようとしても反応しなかったり小惑星を隣にスライドできない。 右下の色々開けるところからいずれかを押して、横にスライドすると下の表示と写っている画面が異なっていたり中途半端な場所でとまる。 ストーリーのスタミナ回復の時間が1分と書いてあるのにカウントが進むのが異様に早い。その割システム上では実際進んでいないのでまた開き直して確認しなければならない。 どれもゲームが進行できなくなるほどのバグではないが細かいバグが多すぎて少しストレスが溜まります。 あことれはバグか分からないのですが、銀河日誌で見れる住人の見た目やメッセージのアイコンが、その時の星のレベル関係なくレベル2の時に出てくる住人になっている星がいくつかあります。 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2026-07-24, version 7.33.7* Please ENOUGH with the rewards of FOOD or nothing at all!! You've rendered our DFR's useless with all this food, we need coin and energy. Please I'm begging you. ### 1/5 — Need more levels *2026-07-09, version 7.32.11* Are you ever going to add more levels beyond 140? It’s been almost a year. ### 1/5 — Sometimes it works *2026-05-28, version 7.32.1* It works sometimes. But when it doesn’t, there is no way to get Help. I’ve contacted customer support. They ask for more information. I send them it. They ignore it and ask for it again. I send it. They ignore it and ask for it again I send it. They ignore it and ask for it again so I finally just gave up. It’s the app is not worth it. ### 1/5 — Does not pull steps data from health; meaning does not integrate w wearables *2026-05-21, version 7.32.1* Deeply frustrating app. Does not use actual accurate steps data from wearables, even if synced to Apple health - simply uses phone step data. This is super restrictive for people in particular who may not carry their phone around with them everywhere. It is such an easy fix to pull data from health instead of this data - I don’t know why they haven’t made this fix. Useless till they change this ### 1/5 — Intrusive unskippable ads… *2026-05-20, version 7.31.2* Started getting unskippable ads after hitting 13tg planet. Maybe it’s time to drop the game… ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-02-22, version 7.29.1* A lot of ads and many bugs in the game. ### 1/5 — Keeps getting worse *2026-02-11, version 7.29.1* Recently this app has been causing more irritation than enjoyment. I don’t understand why they don’t allow you to link up with your Apple Watch or wearable technology. Being forced to carry your phone around everywhere in order to get steps seems quite ridiculous to me and is causing this game to be too difficult to be worth my time or money. In addition the last six times my event ship has given me nothing. I don’t understand how this is decided or why all of a sudden I stopped getting any rewards but it’s yet another reason why I’m about to delete this game. UPDATE: it just keeps getting worse. Now there are ads so often the game isn’t even fun anymore. And your only option is so deal with it or pay an ANNUAL fee. So disappointed with how this game has deteriorated. Especially since I’ve had it for so long. ### 1/5 — i dont get it where is the walking part *2026-02-03, version 7.28.0* title ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-01-01, version 7.26.5* I’m deleting this game because the recent update forces way too many ads. The annoyance outweighs the fun it provides. ### 1/5 — Too Many Ads *2025-12-23, version 7.26.4* Way too many ads, and keep adding more ads.制作团队无休止的增加广告，已经严重影响游戏体验。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-09-01, version 7.34.0* Fun ### 5/5 — XDD *2026-08-25, version 7.34.0* Dfgdh ### 5/5 — Great game! *2026-08-25, version 7.34.0* I’ve been playing this game for over 7 years and even though lost my old save and had to start all over again I still enjoy it! Yea it sucks having to start all over again, but atleast I know a majority of the gameplay so it’s easy to progress. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-08-18, version 7.34.0* I’ve been playing this game for almost 8 years. I love it so much! ### 5/5 — Genuinely good motivation *2026-08-17, version 7.34.0* If you enjoy meeting goals or crossing things off lists but make it fun, this is a good way to motivate yourself into getting more steps. The missions are like a list to check off but it only works when you find the right planets during exploring. Exploring and building and upgrading all take an increasing amount of time, money, and cubes and to speed it up you walk. You unlock more ways to help yourself using steps to generate currency as you progress so it keeps the small incremental motivations coming as the game progresses and the only thing a subscription would add is more things to walk and spend energy and coins on so I’m personally waiting on that because there’s so much to do even without it. If it works for your brain then it really works. ### 5/5 — Fun, cute game that keeps me active *2026-08-14, version 7.34.0* Love exploring and adding, and upgrading new planets. The lab feature keeps things social and makes it even more fun ### 5/5 — Best motivation to walk more *2026-08-13, version 7.34.0* Love this game ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-08-08, version 7.33.8* This game is fun and gets you to be more active! ### 5/5 — Super cute game / step tracker *2026-07-31, version 7.33.7* Love the adorable scifi art style. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-07-27, version 7.33.7* Great game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
