Since 2002, millions of intergalactic overlords have been fighting for mastery of the universe, putting their strategic cunning and military strength to the test in this titan of space strategy games.
Start developing your humble planet, and claim victory in intergalactic battles – any time, any place! Dispatch your fleets on missions from the comfort of your own home, or turbocharge your resource production while on the go with your smartphone.

Expand your empire by colonising new planets, forging alliances and picking strategic battles against other players. Bold space pioneers can expect to face many perils and challenges, but also find power and glory in the endless depths of the cosmos.
In OGame you can choose between three classes to find the gaming style which suits you best. Each class has a different focus, whether resource production, combat or research, as well as a unique class of ship: Crawlers for the Collector, Reapers for the General, and Pathfinders for the Discoverer.
Also choose one of four different lifeforms:
- Exploit the Humans’ varied and balanced skill set, and search the cosmos for other lifeforms.
- Play the curious Kaelesh, a species specialised in exploring the universe.
- Harvest your resources more effectively than anyone else as leader of the Rock’tal.
- Lead superior fleets into battle with the Mechas and take advantage of their artificial intelligence.
War rages in the darkness of space. Legions of pioneers brave their ways into unknown quadrants, founding new colonies and securing valuable resources. Fleets are constructed, galaxies conquered. The destiny of your people lies in your hands!

Important notice:
To start the game, an additional download of game data is required – usually no more than 300 MB, depending on your device and installation status. We recommend using a Wi-Fi connection. Without this download, the game cannot be played. The game also regularly downloads additional content while in use – for example, to deliver new features, improvements, or events. The size of these updates may vary. An active internet connection is required at all times.
After the most recent patch implemented for the app, debris fields are no longer clickable in app. You can see that they are there but cannot see how much or quickly send ships to them. The trader tab in app has also been broken for a long time. You cannot access the scrapyard for any planet but the Homeworld, cannot access the auctioneer at all or get any of the universe rewards outside of web browser. I play primarily on app so having to log on via my phone browser is difficult and time consuming. Please fix this as I know it’s a great game that I’ve been playing since 2002. I was hoping that there would be a points barrier between the truly massive players that are 300 million points ahead of myself but once you get past that newbie cap, those Goliath's can very easily bully you just because they can. Make no mistake, it’s free to play but pay to win. Even the rank one in my universe gets banned for bullying or bashing but only for a day or 2 after several instances of rule breaking. My universe is almost barren because the rank one throws thousands of dollars into the game then bully’s other players into quitting or V mode. I understand the game very well now but if one player can break a server….why am I playing?

I appreciate the efforts being put into making a mobile version of the game. It makes it more enjoyable compared to the zooming and scrolling of the desktop version in a mobile browser. There are some points though that make the app unusable compared to the web version on the phone. If these could be addressed that would be great and I’d prefer to use the app if some were addressed.1. Dispatch fleet is still broken for me after the latest update. I’ve been able to use the button 1 out of every 3 to 4 tries and usually end up restarting the app to get it to work. For someone doing expeditions and fleet saves this bug makes the app unusable.2. The bottom menu buttons used to be customizable but I’m not sure if that feature changed because I can’t seem to figure out how to move fleets or other options to the main menu and customize it like previous versions. If this functionality is there a little tip or hint would be helpful.3. When clicking fleets for a moon or planet it would be nice to show the quantity of that particular fleet with a dispatch option like in the desktop app. Right now it just goes to fleet movement with the option to dispatch.4. Rewards are missing from the app. When there is rewards week it’s required to use the desktop version to complete tasks and collect rewards. This would be nice to have in app next to inventory if possible.5. Build icons are missing from the planet / moon view while in list mode. This is a nice feature to see active construction but not a deal breaker.Overall the look and feel of the app is enjoyable and just hoping to see more functionality implemented.

Hi! We are forwarding your feedback to our developers, mainly your problems with sending the fleet. We would need some data from you like the model of your device and installation ID, you can contact Pinky or Prongs on Discord channel (https://discord.gg/OGame) and forward that information.We are preparing some changes that will also improve the points 2 and 3. Regarding point 4 and 5, we are still working to implement and improve the app.
Good port of a browser game

Overall, the game runs just fine on the application. The UI is pretty easy to figure out if you’re familiar with the browser version. Some things aren’t as clear cut though, which is part of the reason for 4 stars instead of 5. For example, it took me a while to figure out how to use a jump gate on my moon via mobile. I also wish that the resource market functions were all working. It’d be nice to do auctions on mobile. The last big gripe I have is that it can take a while for the game to refresh itself when you send ships from planet to planet to and from a moon. I usually have to close my app and reopen it for the game to stop telling me that I have no ships on a planet when I know that I do because I just sent them there. Otherwise the ability to play this game on mobile is unparalleled for flexibility. I actually prefer playing mobile than browser, they just need to fix a few more problems before it’ll get the full 5/5.

Hi! We are adding the missing functions from the browser version and polish and we are having regular updates for that. I invite you to join our Discord where you can give us your suggestions and tell us about your gaming experience and also be informed about all updates: https://discord.gg/OGame
It’s okay if you also play the browser version.

The game is good, however the app makes it a struggle to play smoothly. Latest patch notes said they fixed the dispatch fleet button,However on multiple occasions did say 80% of the time when I click *dispatch fleet* game tells me I have no ships on this planet, When in fact I do. Makes playing anything late game a struggle due to not being able to reliably fleet save.Building ships or defenses, works fine but the “max” is never right. It only looks at whatever resource you have the most of. (I.E Light Laser takes 1500 metal 500 Crystal. If I have 1500 metal and 5000 Crystal it will say I can build 10 Light Lasers which is not true I can only build one.No trader functions, chat, or rewards like on the browser. They did say they are working on it so I won’t knock them on that. But it does mean the app is best played along side the browsers version and not as a stand alone alternative.
