"Auralux is real-time strategy in its purest form... It's simple. It's elegant. It's slow and engrossing." – Kotaku

"Auralux is a success. It distills the real-time-strategy game to its purest form." - The A.V. Club

"The later game introduces some very interesting mechanics though, such as black holes, gamma ray bursts, and orbiting planets... There is something for everyone." – Techgage

Perfect

Worth the price

Good game with dumb AI

It’s too expensive. But I’m going to buy it anyway. And the next one if there will be one. Because it’s the best game I played on iPad.

For 12$ I would expect better AI.
Enemy is so stupid.

- They seem to be only aware of units orbiting planet or attacking one. They don’t realize that you move your forces into empty space, next to their planet, without attacking it.
- They attack even without chances to win, instead waiting for more powerful armies to fight each other.
- They almost never join forces against most powerful army. (temporary alliances might be interesting)

Perfection strikes back !

I remember when I came upon first part of this game couple of years ago. It stayed with me on each of my mobile devices through whole this time. Auralux's simplicity and replayability made this title one of the best ever created. Now thanks to tremendous amount of new mechanisms Constelations made it again, it stoled my free time, and I will spend more of it to finish all the levels for sure ;)
