Comments on Galactic Colonies for Android

★★★★★ Marshall Ives · Jul 5, 2025
This game is amazing. No pressure to buy anything if you play conservatively. Think before you place a building and each planet goes by quick. I would like a personal planet mode where you can continue to work on your own planet.
★★★★★ Algis Petkunas · Mar 2, 2024
Great game. Tutorial is very short, and you have to figure out few things yourself. Lack of FAQ. Seems like few buildings are useless...so far
★★★★★ Keith Taulbee · Dec 19, 2023
Easy to play fun to build and ads and buying items totally optional over all good game to kill time or just to play
★☆☆☆☆ Tryner Nope · Feb 24, 2024
Just the typical waiting game with very little strategy. Designed to give you dopamine and get your money, but not fun if you reflect on jt for a second.
★☆☆☆☆ Canyon Pate · Feb 18, 2026
Nope, I've picked up this game and dropped it a few times, but it's become Ad Watcher Simulator. Watch 3 ads to get one bonus, there's 3 bonuses, plus the idle time bonuses. No, just don't. Slow progress, very slow. Tedious and extremely repetitive. Not worth it unless you want to spend 80% of your time just watching ads
★☆☆☆☆ Anthony Ferrer · Oct 4, 2024
Game is enjoyable and great way to pastime, but the research is bugging out and keeps on stopping from progressing its kind of annoying.
★☆☆☆☆ Christian Francis Paulma · Jun 11, 2026
It was gunned at first but. The lack of options to restart or sell or remove buildings makes the game stuck
