Downloaded just for fun and deleted within minutes!
What a major rip off
You hit a pay wall after just a few click
It gives you no incentive to play
It gives you nothing
Just cashing in on the popularity of space games

I for one am thoroughly enjoying this title.
I like the nice clean, smooth interface, and it;s simple enough for me to get into, with complexities developing at a good pace.
It's not highly "social reliant" (i.e. need X amount of friends to unlock X) which i love, as I dont have a lot of friends.

People easily pay 1.99 - 4.99 for a good game, but when it is released for free everyone complains about spending 1.99 on IAP? I dont get that mentality.

Either way, I haven't spent any money or found the need to. You get premium credits in game from lvling up, and from exploring nebula. This isn't "pay to win" by any means, the only thing you can buy with real money are boosters, which speed up or increase yield. You can also be patient and get the same thing over time, and increase yield through research.

The IAP in this game are for the impatient, everything can be done with out paying a dime, and you can get the premium credits through in-game activites. I have bought two boosters already using premium credits obtained by playing the game.

Before you shoot this one down, give it a chance, this is one of the highest quality freemium "space empire" simulations I have found on the app store thus far, and I know i'll be playing it a good long while.

I admit I agree with this completely. It's like a guilty pleasure or something - perhaps too simplistic for most people's preference, or even my own generally, but for some reason I keep picking up this game and tinkering around with it. Must be the interface design.

I do wish you could turn off the sound, however - I am surprised apps get approved that still have audio even when your phone is on silent mode. Makes playing it subtly a tricky ordeal.

I've been playing this in small bursts for a few days now, and provided you don't want to rush the whole process, you don't need to spend any money at all. I usually can't stand this genre due to the complexity, but this one has me gripped (and actually doesn't seem very complicated at all), I think there's something special in here somewhere. So to come here and see these posts just makes me think you guys are either crazy, or you just haven't played the game and are speaking out of ignorance. Not very professional!

Default Great Game

I love this game and have played it for about a week with nothing but smooth sailing all the way through with not one IAP. I'm at level 29 with 56 crystals that I don't even need to spend.
