Dark Kosmos
Read full descriptionHide full description
Dark Kosmos is a pixel-art arcade space shooter. Pilot a UFO through the stars, dodge meteors, shoot down enemy ships and keep an eye on your fuel โ without it, the flight is over. The game was imagined and drawn by a young creator โ every ship, meteor and boss started as a drawing on paper. HOW TO PLAY โข Drag your finger to steer the UFO and tap FIRE to launch a rocket. โข Fuel burns on its own as you fly, and every crash costs you more. A blue canister tops you up a little, a red barrel fills the tank. โข Ammo has a price: an ammo pickup gives you +10 rockets but costs one bar of fuel. Want to shoot? Pay with fuel. โข Survive every level until the countdown ends. Between levels, bonus stages rain down fuel and ammo. ENEMIES โข Fighters that turn towards you. โข Battleships โ tough as steel, and they shoot back. โข Meteor creatures: pink ones drift slowly, spiky ones bounce off the edges of the screen. โข At the end of every round, a giant boss battleship. Beat it three times, across three increasingly tough rounds. FOR EVERY PILOT โข Three difficulty levels: normal, easy and very easy โ where your fuel never runs out. โข High scores on your device and Game Center leaderboards, one for each difficulty. โข Play in English, Polish or Spanish โ pick the language in the menu. โข On iPhone and iPad. โข No ads and no in-app purchases.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dark Kosmos at none against Winky Rush's 10. Dark Kosmos also leads on ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
