Do not recommend for people who actually enjoy more intense strategy games. Very simple and not the strategic depth I wanted
Edit:
Hi Stefen!
I’m not sure how to write a response to you, so I hope you are able to find this. I feel like the over world and battles need a bit depth. I felt like the battles where just a simple rock paper scissor style of combat. It was really easy to just store up enough resources and over whelm the aponte. The over world didn’t seem to offer to much in the way of strategy either. I felt like all I had to do was find a place that would offer me the most resources and then send a huge fleet to destroy the enemy.
I think adding a larger over world and a more in-depth battle style would be nice. Maybe a little more hands on approach in a couple areas would help? Adding more depth in the AI would help. Since it’s not multiplayer, I think that’s where I would start.
I don’t want you to just focus on what I’m saying because you are obviously doing something right and I hope you know that I think that developing this app is very impressive. No hate form me at all. I just don’t think I would call it a deep strategy game.
Best wishes!

Multiplayer?
I love it but do you think you can add a multiplayer or hot seat or just a skirmish I think that would make it a bit better
Occasional Crashing
I wish I could rate this 5 star because it’s super addicting and fun, but I keep crashing whenever i fight the enemy mothership. It gets super annoying because I keep having to replay the level until it doesn’t crash.
Very disappointed
I was enjoying the game until it just started repeatedly crashing over and over again when ever I initiated combat. It seemed like a very enjoyable game when I first started playing but turned out to be a very annoying problem to the point where I deleted the game because it was unplayable. Would not recommend. 👎
Crashed several times
Game was decent until several crashes on .3rd system
Amazing game, multiplayer removed
I found this game to be amazing years ago, but I came back to find that multiplayer has been removed...
Definitely Needs Improvement
I cannot remember what the alien species name is. So, for the rest of this review, I will just refer to them as ‘the aliens’. When I first played the game, I actually enjoyed it. The combat and planet hopping had me ‘hooked’ for a while. At least, until I saw the games numerous problems:
1. The game does not allow you to retry missions to regain precious research points that you may have missed. The enemy(whether they are human or not) will continue to advance throughout the game. This alone is not a problem until you take into account the research aspect of the game. You unlock new ships by using research points or “RP” to research them. There are only two ways you can gain research points: by using real money via micro transactions to buy research points or by completing a mission. When you complete a mission, research points are given based on your performance. For instance, the number of turns that you took to defeat the enemy or how many ships were lost in combat. You can get a total of 200 research points per mission. The problem is that if you do not earn the entire 200( for instance, you receive 120/200), you cannot retry the mission to earn the remaining number of points; causing them to be lost forever. This, combined with the enemy’s gradual advancement and the high price of research, means that while the enemy is advancing, you will stagnate unchanging for a while. This could be fixed if the ability to retry missions was implemented into the game or if new ships were given as rewards for excellent performance or just for completing the galaxy( the game could say that we reached a technological breakthrough or that we reverse engineered their technology or vice versa). One last thing, I believe that the probe should be free of charge and not cost any research points. The probe seems like a necessity in this game for scouting areas and determining enemy strength and should be given to the player for ending the tutorial or for finishing the first galaxy.
2. The game crashes frequently. On my device, the game crashes frequently whenever I initiate combat. Obviously, this is unacceptable and extremely annoying to me; especially when I am attacking the enemy mothership directly.
3. The game is highly repetitive. Even after clearing several galaxies, I was largely just doing the same thing every mission with little variation. This causes the game to get boring very quickly. Even when you are playing as the aliens, you are doing the exact same th
Bland, but want more
Arts great, setting is interesting. It's gameplay is absolutely bleh, but it's got enough eye candy art to keep your attention. I'd pay for the app if they polished the gameplay and focused more on the story.
I came back for more!!!!
This is truly a singular game, with no game coming close to it!!! I had to delete it once to get more space. Then a year later I spent 2 hours searching for it again!!!!
Very fun!
Love these type of indie games, love the strategy and the story.
