A fantastic and well-polished sci-fi adventure with no ads or microtransactions. Highly recommended.

Easily the best phone game I've played. Nice and immersive, with entertaining tactical ship combat, macro resource management/RPG gameplay, story-based choices, and an 'operations' mechanic where you use officers and commandos to complete missions that bring you rewards if executed properly. Every bit of the game is satisfying, and it blends together well. Game is challenging without being totally brutal.

FTL but based and giving me a reason to care about the lives of my officers beyond their gameplay value. Battles need a slo-mo

On my Google Pixel 7 the font is too small to read. There is no option to increase font size.

Game is totally unplayable for older people like me. I'm 58 years old with glasses. I've played games since Atari and arcades. The print is simply too small. Why can't you make the print easier to read? Tired of the excuses. Make it easier to read. Game is boring and not fun anyway. Text based game, but you can't read the text. Brilliant. (sarcasm). Pretty basic concept I would think....if your audience can't read your text, why would anyone want to play it??????
