Defender 1 4+

This game was literally my teenage years the game graphics are not to bad but the actual controls the up and down buttons are to far apart that and the lack of responsiveness in the middle part of the direction buttons that makes it difficult to play with the vigor this game is famous for. Hopefully the developer may fix the spacing between the direction buttons until then two stars with hope for updates. It’s a great game on an arcade mechanic and is difficult to replicate especially without actual buttons.

Omg! Whoever says this game isn’t like the old one and the controls are too hard, they weren’t good at it in the first place! I LOVE this game! I mean I FREAKING LOVE it! It took me about an hour to start to figure it out. It’s probably as close as we will ever get to having the game in our basement. The ONLY thing is it’s a little hard to go up and down sometimes but what do you expect on a phone screen???? I miss the hyperspace unless you can tell me how to do it. I’m up to 100,000 so far and it’s so fun remembering the old days and the sounds are incredible!!!! Thank you for bringing this back from the past and to the future!!!!!!!!! 5 stars!!!!!

If I could give this game a less-than-a-star rating I would. I was so excited to see this game in the App Store, but after purchasing it and playing, or should I say trying to play, I realized I just gave away $1.99. This game shouldn’t even be for sale.

It’s hardly responsive and the controller buttons are barely useable. The only good thing is the graphics. They are almost identical. However, in this day and age, this game could be designed with much better non-pixelated graphics like we had back in the 80s.

I doubt I’ll ever get the money I spent on this game back. So I’ll chalk it up as a lesson learned. Buy no games that I can’t play first then buy and/or games designed by this company unless they make changes to this game and upgrade everything.
