Ratings and Reviews
Ahh, yeah…just buy it!
Update: A back button. It could use a back button. A bug where the music turns off when app is put in the background. I have to turn the music off/on to get it back. It would nice if it played in the background, as the music is both inspiring and relaxing. The ‘pop-up’ labels for icons and numbers is excellent! …ORIGINAL TEXT And I’m not a ‘text-based-game’ aficionado, per say (yet I read nonfiction incessantly, go figure). Smoothly moves between landscape and portrait orientations at any time! I found the instructions more challenging then just starting the game. :-) The UI is perfectly arranged and yet out of the way. Game play text accessible during the game. Everything about this production is intelligently designed. The one thing that would put this product over the top, I don’t think I missed it, and that would be both font pitch and a selection of script types everything is ‘very easily’ read because of high font/background contrast. THANK YOU! :-) Sometimes my 72 year-old eyes get tired. I see Stargate, and several other classic science fiction ideas from movies and TV. Kind of well-rounded. Very cool. Oh, OH! Beautiful music, with a Music On/Off setting, BUT ALSO a music volume adjustment control too! intelligently designed.”
Hoping to unlock Infinite mode! Best stellar rogue-like!
I’ve played a let’s Ply of Beyond the Chiron Gate! This game was complex, to me, at first, but, then, I discovered how to play it. I slowed down, read the text, took my time to understand the interface, tutorial, game play and rules. Then, I began to min-max everything, getting my scientist up to level 6 and discovering weird science from all over the universe! I love this game and I can’t wait to unlock further game modes!
Unfortunately, there is a small, but nasty bug, that makes you choose actions without your consent after picking the “continue” option. This has lead to me losing valuable crew members! I hope this bug can be fixed. I play on iOS iPhone 13. Mobile. I use voiceover, as I am blind and visually impaired. I’ve also trouble shooted the problem by turning off background apps, etc. the bug remains and keeps choosing options for me. I hope this can be fixed! It’s a sad mark on a beautiful game, that’s incredibly accessible to the blind and visually impaired! Thanks!
Worth the price - for the app, and the lives lost
Space is vast and mysterious and wildly interesting but it is also cruel and unyielding. This game captures space exploration better than nearly any I’ve played, and that includes $70 AAA titles. This game is at heart a random number generator with a text adventure overlay. The theme is sci-fi: humanity has discovered a way to travel to other systems. Like the author’s other game, Seedship (which is free but nowhere as developed as this - but will whet the appetite), you must explore the galaxy on a ticking clock. You will mess up. You will lose lives. You will make incalculable messes. But eventually you’ll learn from your mistakes, and you will learn about the universe … and yourself. Don’t stop just buy this game.
