I'm not sure what to think about this one. It's really hard to navigate even for the first time due to the infinite barrage of ads that you can't even buy your way out of unless you subscribe to apple arcade. That's galaga wars+, and after giving this one a chance and not fast travelling, it's totally playable if you can beat the game on one coin you won't get ads! You can also buy a stash of coins for pretty cheap, and it's not a bad game. It's just hard to understand what all's going on but the ads include playable classic schmup games like 1945 and galaxiga, but the dizzying amount of ads and hard to pick up the first time and no way to own the game makes me knock two stars honestly. But I wish I didn't have to. Apple store makes decisions that limit you every time, but I don't blame the game for it. However, it's plainly obvious that the game is heavily biased towards this platfrm because essentially we are stuck with a gacha version that gives you easy or cheap coins but if you were to spend your money you'd be left feeling bad because ultimately there's still ads, and a lot of 'em. With no way to make 'em go away but to get apple arcade... and that makes me understandably annoyed to want to use neither. And it's a shame because whoever developed this game made an okay galaga mobile game that is held back by shady corporate business politics... oh well! If you lose once, you can use the coin. If you lose twice you get the ad lol

Except perhaps for rescued ships leaving on a timer, this Galaga port has everything I could have hoped for in a modernized version of the arcade classic. Finger control on the iPad is excellent (with the possible exception of variations in bonus coin pickup by the different ships between levels). It is challenging, but possible to play totally for free, and as you save up, acquire and max out each of the unique ships, you can enjoy a nice variety of playing styles. Just be patient. I have done so for every ship, have over 300,000 available coins, 2800 warp capsules, and over 2600 replay tokens, and have never spent a dime on the game, not because the pricing was unreasonable, but because I didn't have to! To help provide some financial reward to the developers for their work on this great game, I have watched videos for daily bonuses, but can play entire matches without doing so if the need arises. I daily add 11 replay tokens to my total by playing all 11 levels, a task that normally takes around 15 minutes. My personal favorite ship is Starblade, but I enjoy the variety of options on each of the ships. I look forward to the next ship release, so I can add even more fun to my play experiences. I highly recommend this title!

what’s not to love. This is one of the few mobile games that I’ll play daily, it’s fun and challenging the further you get. A variety of ships from different games and each with different abilities that you can use in game coins to enhance, adding to the replay-abilty with different play styles.This is also one of the only mobile games that I’ve spent money on in the last 5 or so years. $2.99 to remove static ads and double the coins value you receive, totally worth it. I also enjoy being able to hunt down the credits throughout the stages, you can either spend real money on different ships or be patient and save up your credits to get them that way.And while the gameplay is definitely great, I need to gush a bit about how great the models are for the ships and enemies. The team behind this game took great care to craft everything on screen and while still cartoony, this is one of the best looking mobile games I’ve ever played. Highly recommend, especially if you loved old school Galaga :)

I am so happy about I cloud sync! I can't wait to try it. Not having it was a real problem.This also will make it easy to fix the space issue. Over time, its cache just grows. Now you can just reinstall the app to fix that. Easy. It's still a problem, but with a makeshift solution.I guess the only bad thing I can say is that the Xevious and Galaxian ships feel under powered. For instance, the Xevious omni-shots are too slow to effectively kill probes for 👑 coins; the Galaxian's bomb has weak offenses, forcing you to dodge rather than aim. I always start with the Xevious ship so that I can kill it while paired with a better ship.- - -Pre-dev Reply post:Second, I just saw that they made a compromise on the high score rewards. I'm actually ok with it as it now is in the hundreds. That may be a fraction of what it was, but this more lives, an opportunity for higher scores is created.Old Review:It's a fun game, but killing the high score hurt. I finally fully upgraded the new ship. Not bad. Not perfect, but decent and free. You have to really like the genre to like the game. It takes a minimum of around 45,000 coins to deck it out, but less than 90,000 to insta upgrade everything.What makes that problem worse is this: it takes up almost a gig of space over time.
