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.
