Kudos to the devs for continuing to improve and support this wonderful game!

I never write reviews it’s a great game to sink a few hours in to here and there, it’s just a shame it has bugs still. Overlapping buttons or things on screen can make it near impossible to play on longer play throughs I still haven’t found a route round this. And crashing during crew combat for a iPhone 13 I would of thought it wouldn’t have many issues. Worth the money if can get past these two issues it can be quite addictive and annoying.

The game it’s self is great but not being able to easily switch devices and continue on IOS products is a real game breaker for me. It logs into the game centre but doesn’t share saved files between IOS devices which is crazy every other game I own does this :’( I owned it on steam but got the app for ease of use … disappointed this was raised years ago but never fixed and iTunes makes it impossible to transfer the saved files across via iTunes these days so the work around in 2019 doesn’t work

No tutorial on how to play. Have fun trying to figure it out

I just live this! Huge fan of Elite back in the day and this feels like it more than fills that void in my life. Brilliant game!!

I just wanted to play a space marine, a couple of games got me to grips with the game, then I discovered all the ships that looked good or were different in layout to enable different styles of play were locked behind absurd challenges. 10 hours I spent on one, only to have one mission fail and their not so useful FTL-alike / Rogue-alike saving screw me - because you have to finish 50 flawlessly. This wouldn’t be bad if you could turn it off. You can’t. The devs won’t, they apologise and bask in their fans telling them how nuanced it is and how we don’t understand. I can’t believe I’m calling a came ablist, but it is - it bounces hard into my ADHD twists it, then spits it out, and the developers won’t fix that. I’m going to see if there’s anything remotely close, if so this is getting returned so fast it’ll void SSD cells.

Arguably one of the strongest space rougelike RPGs out there. ST:F allows for you to play as any number of customisable captains, from Smugglers making money on the black market, Pirates raiding shipping lanes, Bounty Hunters kidnapping rival spies or Explorers, finding treasures in distant planets. The game requires some imagination to paint the scenes. It’s like a D&D space game. Some parts are repetitive. But the difficulty choices, faction bonuses, in-depth lore and story and the free, difficulty achievement tied unlockables gives you dozens of hours of content to replay through. If it’s boring. Crank that difficulty up, change your build, choose a different faction or character to side with and jump back into the pilots seat. My favourite moments were realising that no matter how good you think you are. The game can throw curveballs that come out of nowhere. Race through the stories? Your enemies speed up their process and are now hunting you down for foiling their plans. Build rep by defending a planet? An alien ship jumps you and kills half your squad, leaving you in a death spiral. Try to sell alien artefacts on the black market? The security guards shoot you and kill your medic and your main team. Run out of fuel and can’t afford to buy your crew “spice” to keep them happy? They throw you out of the airlock. ST:F is a game that, at its core, is repetitive. A 2d, text based, RPG. But beyond that. It gives those with an imagination to imagine life as a ship captain of the future. Equally satisfying and scary. It’s a game that has so much potential, the Trese brothers deserve more funding to build on this project. There’s ZERO ads, DLC and annoying pop ups. It’s a full game. Which is more than I can say for half of the content on the store. Instead of going to Starbucks or McDonalds for a week, buy this game. You won’t regret it.

But better! Seriously intricate and deep. Can’t believe you can grab so much content for few pounds! Don’t expect any guidance, you will actually need to employ your brain cells to figure out what’s worth doing what’s not! Highly recommended!

Great game, complex and involved. Can be played like a slightly simpler version of elite dangerous (just more turn based and tip down), or as I have been, imagining a slightly alternate version of firefly, just in a different galaxy, with different characters and aliens instead of reavers! Keep up the good work, another brilliant game!

Plz make text bigger I have a iPhone 10 and it’s trashing the game as I’m skipping because I can’t read the text,so plz plz make bigger would b a five star if bigger thanks
