Timeless Classic!

I’ve had this game for years, and it has always been fantastic with a group of friends. There’s something about sitting in a group in a public place, or even at home, and urgently exclaiming semi-nonsensical directions and having someone suddenly shout “Will somebody PLEASE FLUFF THE TOWELS!!!” that you won’t find in any other game. As things invariably turn from bad to worse, the control panels glitch and malfunction. They can be repaired, but you’re still trying to figure out how to expunge the hypnobauble or whatever. This game’s true elegance is in its simplicity, and it’s a fantastic icebreaker, or even just something to play with a friend while waiting for a movie to start. Why are you still reading this? You could have downloaded it and already be playing right now!

Developer Response ,

Thank you so much for the lovely review! I'm so happy that people are still enjoying it after 10 years... 🚀

Yes.

Used to play this game years and years ago, back in what was probably middle school. In college now, so remembering this game existed was a huge nostalgia hit.
I’m immediately redownloading and I’m gonna convince all my roommates to do the same. Playing this game with my dad back then was such a great way to pass the time and a really good memory to look back on-I texted him about it trying to remember the name and he knew what I was talking about just by texting “rocket ship panel an communication”. I’m gonna talk him into playing next time I see him, but for now, my roommates (and best friends) will have to do.
Thanks for the good memories, and I hope I’ll make more (if me and my roommates don’t kill each other playing, of course)!

Crazy fun!

I first got this app on a work trip to an elementary teacher’s conference a decade ago. My coworkers and I had such a lot of fun! It takes the right kind of group (folks who can deal with being stressed out and yelled at - what does that say about teachers?) Last year, my ESL-teacher friends and I played it at my birthday party and wow it’s still fun! This was the first app I ever bought anything in (indeed there have only been a few over the years), purely because it gave me so much joy that first weekend; I still enjoy using the “origami” theme and activating the ship’s cat. Glad to see it featured by Apple!
