This game is so fun while be ing hard as you get better in the game you get harder levels it’s very fun and you can upgrade your plane as you’re doing the levels and once you’re at the really really big level you can fight a bug I promise you if you get this game you’re going to love it there is some technical difficulties but it’s still very very very very fun I haven’t got to the biggest level yet but it’s called Alien Shooter‘s I bet you gonna be able to fight alien so I would definitely recommend getting this game but some other reviews say that it’s not that good and I don’t agree with him but if you don’t like this game that’s your opinion but I love this game when I was in Hurricane Ian last month all I did was play this game it kept me concentrated four hours so please please get this game you’re going to appreciate it and let see you don’t like hard games that do not get this game like if you hate games that is hard like really really hard do not get this game because I do not like people getting frustrated anyways I would definitely want you to get this game and sorry about the terrible thing I just do not know what to say.

Very challenging game - fun and even addictive. Excellent graphics and endless variety of enemies. The campaign mode gets very challenging as you advance, but unfortunately, it becomes impossible to advance towards the higher levels unless you either spend money on the game to upgrade your ship’s power, or unless you literally have hundreds to thousands of hours to spend time playing a video game – which no successful business owner does! Lol. Might be a good game for certain millennials who have lots of time to spend playing games. One more comment – the live battles against other players is a great concept, but they ruin this feature by making the battles entirely lopsided, and also by having you mostly play against computers instead of playing real people. So you often wind up getting paired against “people” (mostly computers) who have a ship many times stronger than yours - and they can clear the levels much faster than you or use tricks (called “talents”) to spontaneously destroy your ship and kill you. Therefore, you have almost no chance of winning a significant percentage of those games. It would be like playing chess against your opponent without a queen - or playing a physical sport against an opponent with no arms or legs. A battle, or test of skill, should provide both opponents with the same tools - or at least similar ones. Pretty dumb concept.

The gam is fun with some really good mechanics and great visuals, but like most these days, it heavily favors those that are willing to spend piles of cash. I honestly believe all the “pvp” type stuff is just bots, so beat the computer, if you can. As far as the game play, be ready to drop giant wads of cash, or play for multiple months religiously to gain enough traction to make reasonable progress. For example, I have unlocked most ships and upgraded all of them as far as I am able and don’t do enough damage to pass the second level of the birthday event. Seems like the devs tried to do some type of balance between free to play and pay to play, but lost their way and just went for the money. If I could offer any advise to the devs, cut the difficulty by 1/4 and cut the resource requirements by 2/3 at least. Make a game that we want to spend money on because we love to play it, not that we have to. Update: I just got done losing multiple pvp matches against opponents that are FAR beyond my ability to compete with. Also, I’ve been attempting to play this birthday event and even it is an overly difficult absolute joke. On birthday events, the players are supposed to be able to celebrate with the devs. On this event, the difficulty curve is so high and the rewards so poor, that even after a week of solid play, I will not be able to get a single item from it. Get it together devs. The only thing holding this game back is you.

When I started it was ok. I won some, I lost some. Now, you can only play super league twice a day. They force you to play free league and I’m constantly going against people with better ships and upgrades. You have to fight the aliens and sometimes 3-4 attacks from opponents at the same time! It’s like putting a teenager in the cage with a pro MMA fighter. It don’t stay fun long, you get what I’m saying? Now I’m definitely not the best player, even if I was fully upgraded, but I can promise you this...in an even playing level I would be winning more than I am now which is about 10% of the time. Even in free leagues, if you’re against someone who doesn’t have upgrades it’s like 8 times out of 10 they immediately get their most powerful ship and I get the two least powerful until like wave 9 or 10. By that time you can’t catch up if the player is good enough. I hate to delete this game because I actually just spent real money on it just to buy one ship. But I’m gonna. I’m so done I just want everyone else to know, you cannot compete unless you spend money. I repeat, you cannot compete unless you spend real money or deal with losing for 10 years to finally upgrade some stuff to get to where you can compete. My only hope in winning free league is if one of the other opponents quit or is killed early or if my teammate has lots of upgrades and attacks them and then I just ride my teammates coat tails to victory. It just gets old.

I like this game well enough, and haven’t experienced most of the bugs that are reported on here (although I’ve never tried to actually purchase anything with real money). I would have given it four stars, but had to give it two now that this last update completely broke the game for me. The four star review would have said that this game is a lot of fun and doesn’t have a lot of needless stuff to make it confusing like some of the other similar games I’ve tried. However, there are a LOT of ads. And a lot of them are pop ups for the game wanting you to buy/unlock stuff for $100!! The unlocks in this game are way, WAY overpriced. I can honestly say I probably would have bought several things on here if they weren’t overpriced so incredibly badly. I’m talking like the cheapest pop up I’ve seen was about $30 to unlock a ship. It’s ridiculous. This rating, unfortunately, dropped down to two stars today. The update that released a few hours ago made it to where I can’t see the sides of the game on my iPhone X. I think the developer tried to make it work on the X, but instead of making the app longer for the new screen, he just zoomed in and now you can’t see everything. I tried to contact the dev and nothing. And the link provided here in the App Store goes to a web page that isn’t even running. There’s literally no way to contact him, so I hope he sees this review.

The game is a fun game with lots of stuff to do between all the different PvP modes, campaign, and daily quests. I would have given it a full 5 stars if I had not encountered some major bugs. The first bug is in pvp mode when I must play against my opponent without receiving any upgrades or power ups the whole time. This not only allows my opponent to get a massive lead but also makes the game extremely frustrating. Thankfully this only happens every so often. The other major bug is when I have played the daily game where you must try to reach the higher level than any other player. I have played this multiple times and have gotten a full 5 rounds farther than any other player but yet do not receive and prize and furthermore I do not receive any ranking. The third and final annoying feature is when you wat to change the starting time of the clan boss but when you do, it says, “Invalid Boss Time”. This is frustrating because the majority of the time the boss starts when I am unable to play and it only lasts for 30 minutes. But even with these periodic glitches I still intend on playing because the game is fun and easy to learn how to play and still requires skill to beat the higher levels.

I like the format, reminiscent of some the arcade games I played as a kid. More challenging though. The game is fun it’s exciting and you can double your winnings by watching a 15-30 second video. Other games I’ve seen would offer that but their was either a catch to buy or the connection or the game would mysteriously glitch and kick you out of the app entirely or back to the start screen and even to the beginning of the game to begin again. I like how the game pauses itself if you get flailing wildly back and forth on a your phone and go too far. The thing is that this game asks far too much for its objects to upgrade or improve your gaming experience. I’ve played games that were worse priced and less fun though. I like the game and will continue to play it as long as it doesn’t become something I can’t do. So, this game with its low pressure “sit and watch a commercial” method of obtaining gold for upgrades to my ships and other such beneficence is neck and neck with the large amount of expenditure to do the same things quicker are what makes this a 2 1/2-3 star review.

Been playing this game for months. First I noticed Hextech was not working. It would never finish some sync which was supposed to happen in the background. I restarted the app and let it sync, which took several hours. Once sync was done, hextech still did not work. I have been trying for a week. Last few days it wanted to sync again, but this time it said 0/8 instead of over 1000. I thought it would sync quick, but it was stuck at 0 constantly. I rebooted my phone and opened the game again. I discovered that it somehow went back in time over a month. I lost purchased ships and upgrades, yet other parts of the game were up to date. After losing over a month of progress, I will no longer play the game, that is unless all my progress gets restored. In case any dev reads this and chooses to restore my progress, my user id is 03BBFFC3-1A28-4FE1-88A9-DABA650F8926. I am not hopeful though. It is a shame as this game was good. Guess I will have to find another space invader clone that is not buggy and does not lose progress. Edit: I do not use facebook products, and will not start now just because of this game. It is stupid to have to sign up to an evil platform that tracks you just to get support. What happened to email, phone, and even chat on a website?

The game has a lot of the features you would expect from a space shooter, but also a lot you would expect from a f2p game. As far as the gameplay goes, it’s much like most other f2p games, since the difficulty and “grinding” aspect increases way too fast. The fun destructible meteor mini levels get replaced with these invincible alien asteroid levels that are just boring. The boss fights go from interesting to aggravating too quickly as well. Enemies shooting heat seeking missiles at you while you are having to dodge 40 other things at the same time. Enemy explosives and attacks that fill 50% of your screen while ALSO shooting smaller ammo at you... essentially making it 100% impossible to avoid being destroyed. There are many times where you won’t complete a level in the 23 seconds for the achievement... simply because the enemies take too long to re-enter the screen. They will seriously drop out of the bottom of your screen and then the screen will be empty for about 7-10 seconds while waiting for them to drop back in from the top. There’s always a meteor or two in the meteor levels that will be just too far to the left or right of the screen so that you can’t destroy them. There are other frustrations but these are some of the worst for me personally.

This game is really fun and you are able to play without spending money but it would be nice if the other ships in the game weren’t $30 and $50, yes those are the prices, I’m sure the developer would make waayyyy more money dropping these to affordable prices. Way more people would buy(why do you think Walmart is so popular do you know how much they make a day?) for every 1 $30 purchase you could probably have like 20+ $5 purchases. Would be way more fun if I could enjoy the pay to play aspects too. UPDATE: the shield does nothing. You get a little shield thing you can select at the beginning of a level and all it does is lag out your game for like 2 seconds. It occasionally shows up, at random intervals, and just lags everything. It doesn’t even protects you I got hit with a middle and died. Also I’ve hit a level where I simply cannot beat it no matter what I do. It’s as though they designed it to only be beaten with the ships you have to buy, which are still way too pricey. UPDATE: the new update messed up the game. It’s now laggy constantly, no it’s not my phone it’s played this game perfectly fine till now also my phone is new, and if you try to resurrect by watching an ad the ad doesn’t resurrect you it just asks you to watch another ad and freezes. I literally got killed by nothing in a meteor level where the meteors didn’t even come near me.

I’ve played this game for a few years now. In the beginning it was challenging, fun and rewarding. Using skill and technique to advance in levels and ships; however now it’s become too hard to advance and win in any way, shape or form without spending lots of money. This is especially hard during a pandemic where not everyone has the luxury to spend extra money to advance. At the very least you should allow skins and upgrades and crystals be available on an open market forum utilizing coins rather than players income. In addition: for PvP adding the little ships that create challenges each stage has made it even more difficult to advance ahead; especially since PvP seems to always match one with another player leaps and bounds ahead of oneself in level and combat fire. This game wasn’t always like this- it used to be fun. Addictive. Happy. Now with all the issues, problems, money hungry add ons the developers have created- it’s become frustrating and tiresome. It feels like this game is only for those who have extra money to blow- not for the loyal, hardworking players such as myself. I know I’m not the only person with these exact same complaints and yet nothing has been done to fix, modify or change it. Sorta represents the system and reality we live in everyday vs. being the wonderful escape this game once was for players.

I have spent more money on this game than I really want to admit over the last several years. I received a message a few weeks ago that I was cheating in some way. This was absolutely false. It said if you wanted to dispute it, follow the FB link it connected you to. I provided screen shots, all of my history and advised them to check my account. I also asked for a refund for things I had paid for that was taken due to time outs, freezing and other issues on their part. To which I have received ZERO response. After about 3 days without a response from them, I was locked out of all PVP matches and online play. So, I sent a message regarding this. Again, no response. They have no problem taking your money for all of the in app purchases, but are lousy with customer service. I have requested a refund for ALL money spent on/within this app due to the issue of my game no longer working. No response. Now, I will go to the Apple/ITunes and keep working up the chain. From what I understand, this happened to a lot of people. Not just myself. I just contacted them way before most others. This was my favorite game to play while my grandson was napping. I have lost tons of money and time. You spend so much time working on your ranking. 3 years or more from me. All to have it GONE with NO communication from app owner or anyone else from their team.

EDIT: updated to add that since i left this review my account has been targeted, i log in and play 1 round and lose all of my energy after just playing once (100 energy down to 0) when a round is only supposed to cost 10 energy. also i see in matches that i will still be on my first ship and 1 lvl power when opponents have had multiple ship changes even though i am several levels ahead. while i really like the idea of the game because it is so similar to galaga (it’s basically a ripoff lol) the devs are absolute garbage. how in the world can you ask for $99 for a ship and not offer in-game support for basic troubleshooting? money grab. play enough and you’ll find that you are asked to pay 2-4 diamonds to play single rounds of events that used to require nothing.. then gold coins or just the watch of an ad. no explanation for the uptick. just hit a certain threshold on an event and whoopsie. you don’t get to play unless you pay. it’s predatory awful behavior and it’s why i have never spent a dime on this game and never will. this is coming from someone who has spend $15,000 usd on topwar in 2022. over $5,000 usd on cooking diary. i have no problem spending on games. i refuse to do it when the makers so obviously don’t care about their user base. i love galaga and i am so upset this is what we got.

I did like this game before the latest update, reminded me of some old school games but this last update has given me nothing but problems. First off the player player mode (when you can get it to work) puts you up against players that have three times as many cp’s as you do with a much better ship so there is no way to win, second if you choose to spin the wheel from the quest screen then you will have to exit out of game to get back to the home screen and you never get your reward for completing that quest and now starting today when I would loose a round I would have to close the game out and restart it just to be able to play again because it would freeze up. Edit. Game was actually better with the pvp mode until the latest update, now it tells me that I need to update the app to play in the pvp mode even though it just undated 5 days again and no new updates available. The latest update changed the (endless mode) to now it has levels so it’s not actually endless, it never really let me into the the world boss challenge and the ships that’s have fireballs come out of them makes some of the levels almost impossible to beat, I like a good challenge but some of the things that have been done with this game is ridiculous.

Please stop taking away turns. You keep limiting— first survival, then the PVP then the against 3. Actually— keep doing it. It will make it easier to delete the app so I can stop spending so much time playing. I absolutely love this game but it’s really for those who have plenty of $ to toss into it. I don't mind spending a few bucks for a great game but obviously you’re going to lose PVP against those who have paid more in. There’s little skill involved when you’re up against a higher VIP. You're going to be given the lowest of the low end ships repeatedly playing in super league against those who are higher VIP and be prepared to feel very frustrated as you watch the 6 levels needed for the other to win get blown away in no time. Campaign is probably the best to stay in although I loved playing PVP, campaign is at least more skill involved but there are some areas you will find it extremely difficult without a stronger ship. So if you’re patient, you’ll eventually get it, if you’re not— pull out your money!! To the creators — the graphics are beautiful. You’ve done an awesome job. The colors are amazing and the aliens are great. Prettiest aliens I’ve ever destroyed.

When I first downloaded this game it was phenomenal. So many different modes to play and ways to upgrade. Now it just keeps getting worse and worse after the updates. First off you need materials (crystals) to upgrade your more powerful ships. The only way to get those crystals are by paying an obscene amount of money or battling someone else for theirs. It used to be 7 crystals for a “super” battle and you had unlimited play. Now it’s 4 crystals and there is a cool down period that stops once you exit pvp mode. Not only do you need the crystals to upgrade ships you need them for opening chest to get different materials to upgrade your ships. It just seems Lomé the ya re doing everything in their power to make you pay $40 for 300 crystals to get a chance for the things you need to progress. You also need to spend money to move up into VIP. There are 12 levels of VIP. If I’m not mistaken you need to spend $100+ to get to VIP 12. This is starting to get ridiculous. Edit to review: it is nearly impossible to advance in the game without spending money. Especially with the skins that send obstacle to an opposing playing during PVP. Unless you pay for those upgrades it’s almost impossible to spend enough time on the game to acquire those upgrades. It keeps getting worse.

This game could be 5-star; and it used to be. It’s fun and very addictive. However, the developers are so focused on making money that they have ruined the game with their updates. Rather than fixing bugs, their updates add more features that attempt to coax players into paying real money to be able to complete the game. The worst update of which was the ENERGY UPDATE, that now requires players to pay energy to play single player, which used to be free. Players are given a set amount of energy each day, but must pay if they want to play endlessly, like before this update. Everything valuable in the game takes crystals to our buy; crystals are impossible to gain in large amounts unless players pay real money to buy them. Unlocking a new IN-GAME SHIP COSTS $30-$50 DOLLARS! That’s outrageous! Often, when players do purchase things, they are given nothing or LOSE THEIR PURCHASES when they make updates. Customer service auto replies and fixes some things, but they fail to follow through on about 90% of requests for reasonable refunds - that is unless the person complaining has opened a case with Google Play first! ABI has got to be the greediest game development company that I have ever come across in my entire life. Believe me when I tell you that, in this game, the richest person wins. Games should be about skill, not money.

So the game is fun. However there is very very little enjoyment because the objective is for them to make money and not for you to enjoy the product! Everything costs money! If you don’t want to pay then you can sit through 10 minutes of ads for other games. Most of the time the game ads go to a black screen for 3 minutes and then repeat the ad then on the third time lock up the game where all you can do is kill it and start over. I play one round then it’s ads and ads and ads. If I crash because they blew me up before I seen anything on the screen (a gimmick they pull a lot) then you have to spend money to continue or start over and spend energy to play again… make no mistake it is designed this way to get people who hate losing to spend money; definitely to goat males that don’t like to lose! The ads however, especially the solitaire one breaks and crashes their game as it cannot recover. The solitaire one will repeat over and over for 10 minutes the totally crash! I’m sure they are paid for each ad the show too! Frankly, I quit! I can’t stand playing for one minute then have to watch ads for 3 or more minutes and may never recover! Too bad because it is a fun game!

So I’m am going to break this review down by category of game play Campaign - the campaign is fun and you can get to level 100ish on medium and 70ish on hard without really spending any actual money on the game. Once you get past 100 it’s a struggle even with moderate spending. The new Universe X mini game is fun and slightly different but game notes says 40 levels and now it’s 32…. Also they are making it harder to get crystals. You used to be able to get 3 day from vid watching. Now it’s 2. I suspect 1 before too long. PVP: you will be out classes and out shipped. And there are Bots you fight against. I watched one get 3 ship changes in 1 level and I have NEVER seen this happen on my own screen in PVP ever. It’s still fun and you can get into some streaks and win some pretty decent items but it will be frustrating most the time as you will be out gunned and hit with ATTACKS multiple times per stage. WARNING - Another update another nerf. They dropped the amount of free crystals you can get a day from 2 to 1. Disclaimer - I like this game and play it often but they keep making it harder and harder to do so enjoyably without spending copious amounts of money to compete.

How can I give this game the worst review possible? 🤔 The thing is, you the customer come last, or not at all. And it’s just gotten worse over time. I’ve been playing, maybe five years. I’ve put in work, time and effort, plus more money than I’d like to recount. They make it cumbersome to upgrade your ships, which you must do to advance, but I thought I’ll just be patient and gradually progress. I passed level 128 in campaign mode and had some good PVP seasons finishing with over an 80% win rate. After all these years, I’m a pretty good player. But the ability to advance gets more and more difficult, the events that used to let you get better ships have offered less and less, and, worst of all, the game is teeming with hackers and I even had fraudulent activity in my bank account as a result of making in game purchases. The game can be fun and even “addictive”, but it’s not worth any of your time or money. The playing field is inequitable and the customer service does not exist. To top it all off, I’m switching to a new phone and cannot save my progress and copy it over (something I did once before). Well, good riddance. I’m leaving behind one of the greatest wastes of time in my life. Please do not get this game, or anything from ABI. Never again.

This is a fun game, but, obviously if you’re playing against someone that pays money, you’re at a disadvantage. It’s almost as if an opponent can warp through multiple levels with some options. Quite evident when you’re rocking through levels quickly and then look and see your opponent is 4 or 5 levels ahead of you. Or some waves where you can see it takes a while to hit the machine you’re fighting several times to eliminate and your opponent cleared it as if he had some “bomb” to destroy the machine. I don’t and won’t pay for an app. I do enjoy this app and would recommend adding it. Just don’t be discouraged when you’re in a level and you think you’re doing great and look up and see that you’re on the same level as your opponent and then all of a sudden they’re 5 levels ahead of you and you lose the match because they’ve beaten the spread margin. Sometimes it’s just not playing on an even playing field. Other than that, 5 stars.

I really, thoroughly enjoy playing this game. Even with the tweaks this game needs I still enjoy playing this game. However, correct the few issues I see, and this game would blow others out of the water! I enjoyed Endless mode before it was updated to the Stages version it is at now. Also, occasionally the game freezes during gameplay. This freeze often disrupts a move to evade a missile hit, then upon unfreezing, the move I was in the middle of has been disrupted to the point that it is either no longer in the direction I was moving, or my ship unfreezing is delayed and gets hit by the oncoming missile anyhow. A third issue with the game I have noticed is touching a bonus video after losing all three lives in an Endless mode match is that occasionally the bonus video never displays an X anywhere to close out the ad after displaying. It is not a case of a well placed X either, as in a white one in a white cloud or something similar. I have scoured these ads. In these instances I have had to close out the app completely to get back into the game. Please correct these problems! Thank you!

Game is pretty fun, constant stream of fire to destroy swarms of enemies. Bosses are designed well and with enough variations that their reuse is natural and not boring. Unfortunately, upgrading ships also upgrades game difficulty making the game less fun over time instead of more fun. To provide an example, in Endless mode you can make it through perhaps 50 levels with the first few ships you can acquire. As your fleet grows in power you can approach 100 screens...THEN you cross some invisible boundary and the difficulty of every screen increases. Asteroids begin breaking up into unkillable debris, alien ships explode releasing homing missiles and start shielded dive bomb runs. These difficulty enhancements are great, but the start on the first wave of every mode making it difficult to clear even 50 waves on Endless mode despite substantial investment in improving your fleet. Highly recommend that these difficulty enhancements be removed from early waves of Endless and Multiplayer. They take a five star game down to three stars in my opinion. A go to diversion has become a frustration not worth continuing since it seems upgrades that should make you stronger, really just improve the enemies.

If you’re looking for a game to play that is legit without any hacks or cheaters. I WOULD NOT PLAY!!! This game. If they got rid of the hacks and cheaters it would be really fun to play like it was over a year ago. The game has gone downhill since e then cause the developers of the game can’t figure out how fix any problems within the game. They do an update almost everyday which fixes one problem then creates two more. They add stuff to game and give out crappy prizes. I’m not saying this just to say this. I’m saying it because I have and many others have said it. The customer services is the worst there ever was in the game besides GOW. The gifts for the codes are useless. Yes they tiny gift will help out the very small player like the beginners, but even that won’t get to far. The game focuses on how much they can do and pretend to help out. The developers of this game are getting shammed by all the hackers and cheaters in the game. Many have complained but nothing is being done. Other than the executives, developers or whatever you call the crooks going on vacation for a couple weeks and putting out a post saying we will be off for vacation. Now when they are not on vacation you can’t get a hold of them. The customer service is a 1 and that is 1 being low and 10 being high. And 1 is being nice.

You will never see more flags for countries that you’ve never heard of, each representing players with VIP status in the double digits, than when you play this game. Apparently the economy is strong enough in Southeast Asia, or the Horn of Africa, that scores of players can spend upwards of $100 on this app to beef up their fictitious space assault craft that will litter your screen with indelible obstacles and blast your ignorant American backside into oblivion. If only they spent that cash on anti-corrupt campaign funds, or vaccines! If you are tempted to spend money on this game, and you will be, you will quickly learn that the items you WANT to buy to compete are not eligible for direct purchase (skins, shiny ships, cards) but locked behind achievements that may take three decades to accomplish. So after Vietnam makes your Nike’s, they print $100 Apple gift cards, and time travel into the future where high-tech AI has enabled their avatars to grind through unreachable achievements, all for the purpose of intergalactic dominance in a fake telephone game. The mechanics are mostly crisp... challenging but enjoyably time-eating in single player modes.

This game is fun...... most of the time. However, I do find one aspect boring to the point of deleting the app. On certain levels (i.e. Singleplayer level 63) it takes WAYYYYYYY to long to clear the first wave simply because of the lack of power ups made available. I can completely appreciate the developers desire to make certain levels more dependent on patience than skill, but when you don’t complete the level and then have to return to an insanely boring Wave 1 for almost two minutes to clear the screen it is not fun. Why wouldn’t you let a player start at Wave 2 once they have completed Wave 1? At least provide a SIGNIFICANTLY increased amount of power ups on levels like this after a player has cleared a certain wave. When a game isn’t fun, it has a short shelf life..... it would also be nice if there was ANYWHERE easily identifiable in this app where you could get some basic information. You know, stuff like HOW TO PLAY. Come on developer, you have a goldmine but you are going to lose it..... your hardcore players will not make you successful, it’s the rest of us who will determine your long term success or failure....

I’ve been playing it for about 4 months now. I like the game. There are different modes to make the whole thing not feel like the same over and over again. There is variety. However, when I play PvP (player versus player) I keep getting paired up against other players that are VIPs. I find it unfair. I’m not a VIP (a player that has made a purchase, the more a player spends, the better the benefits). They get advantages to begin with. A non-VIP can almost never win against a VIP. The game keeps track of everyone’s rankings most people on top are all VIPs. I think VIPs should play against each other within the medals/rankings and non-VIPs should play against each other like wise. Otherwise, the developers are forcing players to lose or buy. That doesn’t seem right, if one considers they are getting advertisement money from us. I see a lot ads during my playing time. Other players have mentioned the options for ships and crystals, etc are pricey. That is very true. One becomes a VIP-1 by spending 99¢, each 99¢ = 1 point. To get to VIP-12, one needs 2000 points. Who spends this money on a game? Much less during a financial crisis

This game is fun but it’s full of 30 second to one minute ads that you’ll have to sit through constantly if you want items to level up. They really need to fix their multiplayer matching system cause it always puts you against somebody at a MUCH higher level than you. How can the creators ever expect you to win and level up when they constantly pit you against people with double your experience level?? If you want to get more powerful ships and actually be able to win, be prepared to spend some money. ABI support claims that you’re matched against opponents with the same rank as you. I’m not sure what rank they’re talking about because when I look, I can see that I’m constantly matched against people at a MUCH higher level. Higher combat power, PvP points, campaign level, and overall level. I mean seriously? In what way would you consider that same rank? It’s unfortunate that the reviews don’t allow you to post screenshots cause I have plenty showing that you’re lying about this. Stop lying and fix the algorithm to still be challenging but not so challenging that people stop playing!

I'm still going to give the 4 star rating because this game is awesome, and I know it can be fixed....But, that being said, if it is not fixed, it basically becomes a 1-Star (0-Star) game. Since the update, I have not been receiving my coins when I win Endless/Campaign/Bosses/Multiplayer. It has either been closing itself halfway through a game after glitching, or closing at the end of a game, after I had already won my coins, and then closes and when I start it back up, it's like I hadn't even played that last level. Also, when I try to watch an AD for double coins, it will either play through the AD (about 10% of the time), and the other 90% it will play through the AD, then the screen goes white, and stays that way until I close the game. Now today, I go to play and it won't even open the game at all. It brings up the white with orange logo screen, and then as soon as it popped up, it immediately closes. Please fix ASAP. I absolutely love this game and I love the new daily tasks part of the new update, but the bugs/glitches need to be fixed.

Update on my below listed issue. They have since fixed the glitch and have since had no more problems. So I will be printing this game from a 4 to a 5 star. Enjoy guys ! Guys it’s fun game with the normal pop ups to drive you nuts but that’s the price you pay for a free game. I’ve spent a little money on this game the crystals are worth it but the ships are not so don’t waste your money. Since the last update I can’t click the X on the add after it’s over so I’ll be in the middle of a fight get killed on the boss and watch a add to get a continue but after the add the X In the top right is un clickable. So I have to close my app and restart it losing any progress. Now today I’ve hit another glitch. After I beat a boss on the quest page my ship just endlessly flys through space with no end in sight. I see there is a part two to this game so I don’t have my hopes up the developers will spend much money trying to fix the glitches.

The gameplay is good, hence the 2nd star, but the functionality is terrible. Vs matches often end early, or go beyond the timer, & opponents are almost never equally matched, or even close. Rewards are not always given for vs seasons. Sometimes items are withheld from purchases. I often die without getting hit due to graphics lag, even on new devices. When I tried to move my first account to my second iPad, it didn't work, & I lost the account. The game has lots of problems, as do most app games. Most games have a customer/player support department to take care of these problems. This game, however, no longer has in-game support. Of course, it doesn't matter, as support never responded to me when it was there. Supposedly, there is now support through Facebook Messenger... but there has never been more than an automated "we referred it to the developers". I have played on/off for 5 years, with no problem ever being even addressed by the company. I really hope this will keep someone from wasting money. Play for free if you play, & don't expect fairness or function, or communication.

Do not expect a fair game unless willing to fork over exorbitant amounts of money to become a “VIP” member or become one of the many hackers who seem to easily scam the game. It is crawling with bugs, from PvP mode (game will randomly shut down during matches which can result in costly losses) to what is called the boss mode (where a beaten “boss” is not recognized and the game timer ticks on into infinity.) Most things in game can be acquired with crystals; which can be earned through various tasks or bought with actual money. Several ships are available for such purchases and are necessary if one is to progress throughout tougher levels, opponents, etc. For example, one can own the “Terminator” for either $50 USD or 300 crystals although it is randomly (scarcely) dropped while playing levels or matches (especially scarce while matched against a VIP member.) There are almost no ads, so it stands to reason that these people need to monetize the service provided. But please be warned that this isn’t a crazy awesome game deserving accolades and dollars; it’s super basic Atari-esque retro in design and play. ***Pay at your own risk!

No skill base match making. Was fun in beginning and even started to spend some money. Now it’s just out of control. Can’t win or do anything in PvP mode. Expect to battle people that are double your rank and maxed out accounts. They will real you in at the beginning and make it very fun and addictive. After about the first 30 days you will completely over ran by maxed accounts horrible playing experience. Would not advise to put any money into this game. Use it as a time waster at most. I will be delegating the app!! They say that they have updated the skill base match making lol. Not even close to being true. I would say it’s about a 1 in 5 chance that you will play someone the same rank or lower. For instance I’m a rank 60 and during my PvP match yesterday I finished with 2 win and 3 losses which is a total of 5 matches. Played 1 that was a equal rank. 2 of the matches where people level 150 and PvP points over 10k. Game continues to decrease daily. Will say it is a good time killer if you just want to noodle around for a couple minutes or if you want to spend about $100 plus a month. Anything between that the game play is horrible

I really like this game. It’s been very fun to play and I like the challenge. Unfortunately, the last update has made it even harder to play. I don’t like how the ship flies in at the first when it goes big and then shrinks down to normal size. It places your ship at an awkward starting place and especially when you die and use a revival you lose control for the first second of game play which is crucial especially with bosses. And when playing with the terminator and reviving you got the full missile block from the bottom of the screen. Now you only get about 1/3 of the top of the screen because of the change in the animation of the ship at the beginning. I also don’t like that you can no longer update the terminator without passing level 80, even with crystals. I’ve been stuck at that level for months and can’t get pass the boss. I just used all my crystals to start at power up 4 and was going to update the terminator next. I like the idea of the new side ships but just added it up and it will cost $150 to get them all. Yah, I don’t think so.

I’ve played this game for years but like the other reviews, the game is really buggy/glutchy and if you purchase something during a big/glitch and update your app, you could lose items or purchases. Reaching out for support takes 3-4 days and then the response I got was appalling. I just installed an update (no reinstall) and lost several things. I don’t think they understand how to diagnose problems which just leads to more problems.l bc below was the response I got. “We don't recommend reinstalling the game app, it will lead to data conflicts and bugs/issues occurred, in this case, will not be supported.”” I’m just going to delete the app bc they have terrible customer service. This is the 6th time I’ve had to reach out because of a problem and it’s just not worth the hassle anymore. The hextech chest ship upgrades has never worked good for me and they choose to ignore fixing it. It seems like they also depower ships or increase the amount of damage to destroy enemy ships bc when they add new features, ship abilities go away or it just takes longer to get through levels…aka “always moving the goal post”.

To start off, I noticed when I purchase in game ships with in game coins that I earned without paying, the game becomes harder! To me this is either bugged or rigged to force the gamer to pay with real cash for upgrades and then they work. I’m on level 48 and have used all kinds of in game upgrades that barely worked and made the game harder to play or beat that level. Call me a skeptic, but without paying real cash I noticed the game becomes harder and harder to play without paying real cash. . Secondly if you report a bug it’s mainly ignored, so why invest in a game if the developer can’t invest in the gamer who will end up purchasing the game. I also noticed a big bs scam, the upgrade or power up that is not permanent that kills faster for maybe 10 or 20 seconds, if you use it and the next round takes a little longer to load before enemies appear so you can use the power up before it runs out. Yet it runs out just when the enemy appears making it an unfair advantage! Again might be a bug of the developer attempting to force the gamer to purchase more upgrades with real money. . Game would be great if these areas were fixed.

I have only played the version of the game against the computer, but I don’t recall experiencing any bugs. I love this game. It makes me angry and frustrated (relatively speaking), but so satisfying when I beat a level - especially the further I get into the game - to me, that defines a great game. There are ads, but I don’t feel there are any more than other free games - AND the ads seem shorter than what I experience on other games. So I’ll take it. I love the genuine arcade feel of the game. I love that you can try out the ships in mini test drive games. That’s awesome. I love that you can eventually earn or get enough points to use a better ship - so as long as you’re patient, there’s no need to purchase anything. I thank the developers for being thoughtful about both the freebie experience and the benefits of purchasing. The more powerful ships are amazing, but you must have patience and a keen eye. With the default ship and its green torpedoes, it’s easy to see most of the enemy orange torpedoes coming at you. But be careful when you earn the more powerful ships - it can be really difficult to see what’s coming at you. Sometimes the default ship and a little patience go a long way, especially as the levels become more difficult. Kudos to the developers for creating an arcade game built with the mobile experience in mind. A lot of games don’t feel natural as touch experiences. This game definitely does. Great work!

I’ve been playing for a few hours and haven’t had to buy anything to get past levels (tho admittedly it often takes many tries). From what I’ve seen so far that i don’t really like is how expensive it is to buy-in just a little. I’m one of those people that believes: if I enjoy a freemium game for two hours or more, I buy in at between $1 and at most $5. I understand that this is how this model sustains itself and I’m happy to pitch in when it’s a game that’s kept my interest for a few days and a couple hours. But I feel strongly that these types of games should offer really good, low priced, one-off $1 & $5 kits. If you want to buy more after that, then they can charge whatever cause that’s where I stop. This gaming-business model seems to be asking a lot for what seems like a return with maybe one or two things that are a level up. Just my 2 cents. But the game itself is fun and challenging tho not impossible ... yet ;)

Look, I’ll still play it, let’s be honest. I have down time and I get bored. But, there is just too much difficulty in this game to find much enjoyable about it in terms of longevity. It’s very much a paw to win model, which is not atypical when it comes to casual mobile games, but this is where Galaxy Attack comes in clutch. Playing campaign to further progress your ships’ improvements? Well, you better watch ads and spend in-game premium currency in order to move forward. To supply this money making system, you get ONE life to complete a single stage, and basically an ad is your second life. Died on your second life? Well, touch it up because you have to spend the premium in game currency to get a third life. Not to mention the PVP pairing is absolute garbage. You will literally see people with 0 pvp points completely wreck you because they went out of their own pocket to buy whatever it is that completely destroys any sense of making improvements. I’ll play for now, but I don’t foresee this being in my casual down time mobile app binge for the long run.

I do not understand why the makers of this game do not pair people accordingly. I do not have any special attack power but they keep pairing me with players who have them all so I can’t never get my rating percentage up above a 350. I have a 45 to 50 percent average and every time they stick me with a player who has a 60 percent average and every time they have all the special attacks so I can never beat them. When I’m playing someone without them I can win almost every time so I’m not a bad player. I wouldn’t waste my time or money on this game because you won’t stand a chance if you are an average player who doesn’t purchase everything. I also cannot find anywhere that tells you how to acquire things or what half the things they put out new are for. I really do like the game when I am paired with someone close to the same level as me but that is hardly ever.

What do you mean. I love the game. Well I loved the game while it lasted. You have caused me grief! I wrote a report before but I did not list everything. Well before I said it had a lot of real life money problems and ads and everything but I did not list the major fact that I only get two hours of video game time a day. I played for so long and bought two new ships. This may not seem like a lot to you but it is for me because I have not been playing for so long. I got the update because I wanted the new PVP…………. Next thing I know it everything is deleted! Its awful. 😡👿 Updates are supposed to mean new things added not everything taken away and a couple things added. I just want them to give me back everything I had before. I spent all my time getting the light phantom and The one I before that. Again you can make it up to me and everyone else by giving us everything we lost back and fixing up everything I listed. I wish I did not have to waste my time by writing this report! 😤 Thank you and sorry to waste your time. P.S. everything else is fine though just get this fixed and I’ll be back to play. 😊😞

I have played this game a long time. I had especially enjoyed playing the PVP. However, over the last few months, it is clear the developers have rigged this game. Example, one way to win in the PVP is to get six waves ahead. I have been 3 waves ahead, and within 3 more waves, I’m suddenly 4 or 5 waves behind and then lose shortly after for falling so many waves behind. That’s saying my opponent, goes through nearly 10 waves in the time I go through 3-4 waves. They send in opponents who have the ability to attack you but there’s no way for us to attack them. I have won matches but suddenly get “disconnected” and lose not only the match but energy used on that. I have filed over a half dozen complaints and all I get is “thank you, we’re aware of the problem and are working on fixing it.” I get that every time. I have looked on groups on google and find out that they have their own developers going in and doing this in order to get the players to make in app purchases. It is rigged to get your money. The game is no longer enjoyable and I’m trying to find places to report them to have the game removed. DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME!!!

Ok devs, I’m not going to fall into your trap. I know you want us to buy everything with really money. Screw that. Why would I pay hundreds of dollars for a little space game on my phone? No one in their right mind is going to do that. This game is on the verge of being almost completely PAY TO WIN. I hate the PvP mode, which has almost no matchmaking fairness (which I’ve said multiple times on world chat and people agree). And I’ve looked through the reviews, few people are finding this game good for more than two days. I played this a couple years ago, but the past updates have pretty much ruined it. Why did you add “energy”? You offer vague explanations for in-game items, and what little things that have explanations are in terrible English and hard to understand. Mind you, I get that you might not operate in and English speaking region but please take into consideration what you are writing. I still have no clue how to get said “clan coins” or whatever those overpriced skin buyers are. Maybe you should consider the consumers when looking back at your game. Sorry but I have to down rate this game.

The star rating for the update, not the game. Before the update the game deserved a solid 4 star (not 5 only because of ridiculously overpriced “real money” stuff - cmon, i may buy it for a buck or two, I’m not spending $40 on your spaceship). Anyway, I don’t want to sound like a complete loser who doesn’t know how to play, but after the last update the game became just like ways harder. And no fun to play anymore. Reducing the time for a chance to win for defeated player from 60 seconds to 30 was not a great idea - before you had a fair chance to win even if they are like a few levels up from you.. now you don’t. Though I could still live with it. But you also added these rocket shooting stuff that just kills you the first second of the game. That’s the most annoying part. And, developers, I hope you read the reviews - none of those I asked liked it, just FYI. Besides, there are glitches now too. I got stuck on the level that I passed and it wouldn’t just take me to the next one. I’m upset and not happy with these updates. I used to spend hours playing this game. Now i just played for ten minutes and don’t want to go back :( disappointing.

This game is a lot of fun, but it gets one start because it forces you to spend money in order to fully complete. The S5 mission is nearly impossible for a couple of reasons - one, the ship is garbage and the levels are designed to be impossible. Even at max power it takes so long to kill anything because you have to hit the right spot on the enemies to do damage to them, despite your beam clearly hitting them. Two, 90% if the time that I make it past level 7, the game sits there and does nothing. The next level doesn’t load. The time just keeps ticking by. Other reasons this game caters to people who pay; daily requests often require you to make a purchase or participate in events that require crystals, the higher currency, which are nearly impossible to get without paying. Tournaments that first require you to login with social media, then cost gold every single time you play but only offers rewards to the 10 people who have paid the most money in that hour. Which are again requirements of the daily quests. Fix the bugs, stop forcing people to pay money if they want to enjoy the game, and get rid of the purple ship entirely.

I used to love to play this game until I hit a Boss I just couldn’t get past. The spider lord was tough. I took a break. Probably a good year. I had spent $100s getting the best ships. I have a lot of achievements finished. I was level 9 VIP. I had like 4 bullet start up power. I saved everything to FB so not to lose anything. I had my own clan. I come back and everything is gone except my clan. Everything taken from me. That was MY MONEY spent to play this game and just TAKEN!!!! WHY!!! Now things are way harder to get then before. I feel it was taken as a reset and now make it harder so players have to spend more to get where I was. I feel this is fraud. Take money for items then take them away so they have to spend it again??? I’m back to level 8 VIP now but now I’m thinking I need to do more looking into this. This just is fair and I’m now doubting legal taking money then taking that item away. This should be fixed and I know they can see what happened because it still has my clan so the game remembers. It’s stored somewhere. My advise if this isn’t fixed is to players get a different game!!! This feels like theft.

Overall I enjoy this game, and is the only game I play everyday. Some things I am frustrated with is PVP, glitches with watching ads while battling bosses, and trying to complete the bosses. With PVP it seems unfair with how pairs are matched. Sometimes I go against someone way to underpowered, and find myself bored because I get ahead very quickly, while other times my opponent is way too over powered that I feel there is no way I could possibly win. It has been fixed in the daily boss level, but I find myself watching ads to continue trying to defeat a boss, to have the game play sounds occurring while the ad is playing, and I am killed while stuck in the ad still. Also with trying to completely defeat bosses while collecting crystals, it seems that the percentages are off. I have battled a boss 5 or 6 times in a row without a crystal drop. If drop rate is 30%, shouldn’t I get a crystal every three attempts or so? Would be a 5 star review if there were no glitches, and if PVP was better.

alien shooter whatever it’s called is super fun! although, the cost of getting one stupid ship? bad. you can only play the game by spending money. for example, one of the best ships is 100 dollars which is super overpriced and expensive. you can barely upgrade you ships without spending real life money in the game. i’m not saying the game is terrible, but it could be better. i don’t even play the game anymore because of the price. it’s so annoying. i like that there isn’t much adds, although, in my personal experience, i have gotten so many technical problems. one time i was playing but then right when i was about to win, the game completely logged me out of it. i went back into the game and all of my ships were gone. luckily i hadn’t spent that much time in game, i easily got my stuff back. it also takes FOREVER to update. this is just my review on the game, i think it’s good, but a lot of money has to go into the game in order to pretty much do anything with it. have a nice day :) 💕

A couple of updates ago it was very addicting when we could wage stones and coins in PVP matches which made it easier to see our goals unfold so that we may upgrade and keep up with the hardcore players. It seems harder to keep up causing us to purchase more items now instead of relying on pure skills because some players have every upgrade in the world and I play humbly making my way up the ranks, which that in itself takes a while going up 20xp points each time when the next rank is like the next 1000xp. Also, the PVP is matches are not favorable sometimes, there are instances when I’m stuck on my beginner ship while getting one or two boosts up until wave 5/6 and the opponent gets their top tier ships breezing through the levels winning easily as a result which is a drag. PS: I hope on the next update there are more reasonable ways to get ranks, evolves, upgrades, clan points, ships, etc. Overall, a good game to pass the time and has great potential.

This is a fun game, reminiscent of games like r-type and galaga. However, there are WAY too many advertisements at 30seconds each advert and the prices for in game items are horrendously expensive. It’s a phone game not a PlayStation/Xbox or pc game, I cannot justify paying such high prices when I can get these things on other reputable platforms, half the time they don’t even charge that much. If prices were lower and relative to other phone games more people would probably spend money. Minecraft, Pokemon go, the Star Trek and Star Wars games and other games like those don’t even charge these high prices for in app purchases. My kid wants to click on many things and there’s no way to just have a 0.99c or $2 monthly ad free subscription. There is no way to change account photo or name unless it is linked to a Facebook account which I do not want to do because it means changing Fb account info. So when you set it the first time be sure you choose the right name and photo!
