Darkorbit lowers go play Krypton private server, bye ### 3/5 — Premium… *2026-04-23* Le premium est malheureusement indispensable pour jouer correctement arrivé à un certain niveau, donc il faut payer tous les mois juste pour pouvoir jouer normalement… Je vais donc m’arrêter là avec ce jeu malheureusement Et si vous pouviez rajouter du contenu ce serait sympa ?? Il se passe plus rien là ### 4/5 — Vraiment sympa ! Mais… *2026-04-03* Un jeu très similaire à dark orbit mais dommage de ne pas avoir de système d’évolution des drones/armes qui étais vraiment cool à l’époque de DO ### 1/5 — Bad development *2026-02-20, version 1.233.0* No updates for years. This game just want your money. ### 4/5 — Upgrade Game *2026-01-19, version 1.233.0* Spravte prosim to že ked už nemam energiu neukazuje to ikonu na červeno ....na munici to viete spravit!!!! ### 2/5 — Неполадки *2026-01-11* Каждую минуту вылетает с сервера, в чем проблема? ### 1/5 — Communauté toxique jeu pay to win *2026-01-08* Le jeu avait du potentiel malheureusement il est gâché par la communauté hyper toxique les turcs sont exécrables pour ne pas les citer, impossible de progresser sur le serveur Europe. Bannissement injustifié car j’ai dis ce que je pense et je le redis ici, votre communauté est toxique ### 3/5 — Un DO a l’ancienne *2026-01-05* Un DO a l’ancienne c’est vraiment plaisant, mais évitez les communautés FR la toxicité est plus présente que sur LOL … ### 2/5 — No dan actualizaciones *2026-01-01, version 1.233.0* Esta bien el juego pero no han sacado nada nuevo en el juego lo que hace aburrido ### 1/5 — Pkk destekçisi bir oyun *2025-12-22, version 1.233.0* Nickimi şehit ismi koydum ancak Puma cm tarafından banlanıp ismim değişmiş ama oyunda bir sürü PKK’lı teröristlerin ismini kullananlara birşey olmuyor Türkiye cumhuriyeti tarafından şehit ilan edilen şehidimizin ismini kullanmak suçmuş gibi terörist ismi kulananlarında bantlanmasını istiyorum ### 1/5 — Ошибка *2025-12-21* 1 звезда. Скачал игру, установил, пытаюсь зайти мне пишет что связь с сервером потеряно. Телефон iPhone 15 WiFi 500mb/s Думал может обновление добавляют, зашел на официальный сайт ничего не нашел. Итог игра удален с устройства. Разочарован то что игра не запустилось…. ### 2/5 — Stížnost.. *2025-11-28, version 1.233.0* Je to skvělá kopie darkorbitu, který nejde hrát na telefonu, ale má šílené lagy momentálně, neustálé teleportovani se kousek zpět a najednou jsem zpátky, taky hra dělá to, že třeba 3x doslova vás odhlásí a musíte se znovu přihlásit, zkráceně "hra padá" ale ne úplně, jen vás odhlásí. ### 1/5 — Lol *2025-10-20, version 1.233.0* Oyunculara küçük bir uyarı yapmak istiyorum: Bu oyunda bazı yöneticilerin (özellikle Baron ve Serendipity admin) ırkçı davranışlar ve haksız banlamalar sergilediğine defalarca şahit oldum. Ayrıca oyun yaklaşık 7 yıldır hiçbir gerçek güncelleme veya geliştirme almamış durumda. Gelen tek yenilikler güvenlik yamaları ve gemi skinleriyle sınırlı. Oyuna para veya zaman harcamadan önce iyi düşünün — sistem tamamen pay to win mantığıyla çalışıyor. I’d like to warn other players: Some administrators (especially Baron and the admin Serendipity) have repeatedly shown racist behavior and unfair bans toward players. The game hasn’t received any real updates or improvements for about 7 years. The only changes are security patches and new ship skins. Think carefully before spending your time or money — the system is completely pay-to-win. Ich möchte andere Spieler warnen: Einige Administratoren (insbesondere Baron und Serendipity) zeigen wiederholt rassistisches Verhalten und ungerechte Sperren. Das Spiel hat seit etwa 7 Jahren keine echten Updates oder Verbesserungen erhalten. Die einzigen Neuerungen betreffen Sicherheitsupdates und neue Schiff-Skins. Überlegt es euch gut, bevor ihr Zeit oder Geld investiert — das System ist komplett Pay-to-Win. Je tiens à avertir les joueurs : Certains membres de l’administration (notamment Baron et l’admin Serendipity) ont montré à plusieurs reprises des comportements racistes et des bannissements injustes. Le jeu n’a reçu aucune véritable mise à jour ou amélioration depuis environ 7 ans. Les seules nouveautés concernent la sécurité et les skins de vaisseaux. Réfléchissez bien avant d’y investir du temps ou de l’argent — le système pay-to-win domine totalement. ### 1/5 — Greedy developers *2025-10-11, version 1.233.0* The game has no new content, only new ship designs and discount offers every now and then. So many things were promised such as reworks, new maps, new gates, etc. No one is actively developing for this game, they are just squeezing every dollar from the players pockets. A ton of players already gave up including me. Not worth! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Did me dirty *2026-05-21, version 1.233.0* Spent a lot of time and money on the game and i cant long in anymore do to latin character’s only! ### 1/5 — Forced pvp is always a no go *2026-05-12, version 1.233.0* I love some pvp but when it’s forced pvp with people that have 10x better gear with little to no skill checks or out play it’s not good You can barley farm or do mission with ever person you run into attacking you. The game is good and I enjoyed it untill I reached the PvP level and being attacked all the time even in friendly zones. This needs to be charged asap Lose lots of new players and the game will quickly die ### 1/5 — No updates *2026-05-10, version 1.233.0* Game didnt have update more than 1 year dead game ### 1/5 — Прошло 5 лет и нет никаких обновлений, все по старому, надоедает одно и то же без новых изменений *2026-05-10* Е ### 1/5 — nem sebez az urhajom *2026-03-29, version 1.233.0* egyrol a kettore megszunt a lezer sebzes, a hajo lo de nem sebez… hogy es mikor javitjak ezt??? ### 1/5 — Aggiornamento *2026-03-20, version 1.233.0* Il gioco è bello però non fanno mai aggiornamenti per qualcosa dinuovo , dopo un po scoccia fare sempre le stesse cose ### 1/5 — SCAM AND INJUSTICE *2026-03-15, version 1.233.0* A friend of ours had their account unfairly closed without any clear explanation. After months of time and money invested, the support team simply closed the ticket without properly reviewing the issue. Situations like this show a serious lack of transparency and fairness toward players. ### 1/5 — Scam and injutice *2026-03-15, version 1.233.0* My account was unfairly closed without any clear explanation. The support team closed my request without properly reviewing the issue. Players who invest time and money deserve transparency and fair treatment, not arbitrary account bans. Reviews like this clearly reflect the direction this game is heading. ### 1/5 — Tiryakisinden Tavsiye *2026-03-13, version 1.233.0* Oyunun birçok eksiği olup yılllardır güncelleme gelmemesini bırakın oyunda birçok bug ve lag problemleri var bunlar dahi çözülmüyor. Başlayıp hayatınızı karartmayın sağlam bünye lazım, başlayacaksanız da sakın para vermeyin sonra hesabı elden çıkarmak için şekilden şekile girersiniz. ### 1/5 — Вылетает *2026-03-09* Ранишь играл нормально, а сейчас 30 секунд и вылетает с сервера в чем проблема ??? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Decepcionado *2026-06-12, version 1.233.0* Deben actualizar el juego porque de verdad que ya no provoca jugar debido al lag que presenta, una sugerencia es que deberían eliminar la opción de los tickets mientras estás en combate, y por favor revisen las cuentas porque hay muchísimos jugadores utilizando cheat y bugs para sacar provecho del juego ### 5/5 — Please Update *2026-03-29, version 1.233.0* Poslední update byl před rokem, mrzí mě že na hře už se nic nedělá a to bývá pravidelně třeba 800 lidi in game. Jinak je hra skvěla. ### 5/5 — Me gusta *2026-01-13, version 1.233.0* Súper bueno ### 5/5 — Curix Cm *2026-01-02, version 1.233.0* Oyunda ki bazı cmler arkadaşlarını savunuyor banlamıyor siz haklıyken sizi banlatıyorlar sesinizi kesiyorlar cm ler eşit olmalı oyunun tadı olmalı bunlar oyunun tadını bozuyor. Curix cm isimli cm’den herkes şikayetçi görevini sonlandırmadıkça oyunun bırakılmasına kadar gider ### 5/5 — Update PLEASE *2025-12-11, version 1.233.0* The game is beautiful, everything is perfect, it can be so much better than DarkOrbit, if u guys make some events every month, update the game like new lasers, new rockets, new drones. This game has so much potential, just do something for the game. ### 5/5 — HAMMER *2025-09-03, version 1.233.0* Einfach mal Dark Orbit fürs Smartphone. ### 5/5 — İçerik eksikliği *2025-07-08, version 1.233.0* Artık yeni oynanabilir ve geliştirilebilir eklentiler şart oldu. Hiç değilse yeni bir harita ,birkaç yeni uzaylı , belki bir yıldız görevi veya droit ve ekipman geliştirmeleri… Oyuncu aktifliği oldukça zayıfladı. Orijinal dokuyu korumak istemeleri gayet haklı ama artık sıkıcı olmaya başladı :) ### 5/5 — Gutes Spiel! *2025-05-08, version 1.233.0* 👏 ### 5/5 — YENİLİK YOK OYUNDA *2025-04-07, version 1.233.0* Herşeyi iyi güzel hoş hile yok kurallar sıkı ama en önemlisi oyunda yenilik olmuyor 3-4 yılda sadece lf4 silah geldi biraz yenilik getirin değişik şeyler yapalım ilk açıldığında TR serveti 1000 kişiyi geçiyordu şimdi 200 en baba 300 kişi oyunda oyuncu da kalmadı böyle giderse daha da çok düşecek bir an önce bir şeylere el atılmalı 🙏🙏🙏🙏 ### 5/5 — Приятная настольгия *2025-04-03* Удивило, что игра есть и на мобильных устройствах, жаль только управление не удобное --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
