You don't shoot the asteroids. You touch them. Tilt your device and your little ship drifts — really drifts, with the weight and momentum of the arcade original. Then you reach into the swarm with a finger and rocks burst under your touch. It is a strange and lovely feeling, and it gets its hooks in fast. Lean away from a rock closing on your left. Pop it. Pop the two pieces it becomes. Keep the chain alive and your multiplier climbs; miss and it's gone. Somewhere out in the dark a saucer notices you and starts making its way over. Push far enough and the sky fills up: splinters everywhere, a saucer's shots crossing the field, your ship sliding through a gap you're not sure was there. That's the good part. Game Center leaderboards and a pile of achievements, including one you're not going to find by accident. Built for iPhone and iPad, edge to edge, with the moody hum of deep space behind it.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Flickoids (Light Version) holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Disasteroids has 30 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Flickoids (Light Version)'s written reviews are positive against 100% of Disasteroids's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Flickoids (Light Version) ships an update every 9 months, Disasteroids every 52 months. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
