The further you go in this game, the more ways they attach money to rewards needed to upgrade and the less rewards you get for the money. Basically it’s a money pit you get hooked on. Buyer beware, this game is anything but free.

Great game. Absolutely love it. Game play is not repetitive, graphics are outstanding and so much to work on. The game is my favorite Science Fiction Game by far. Great job developers!

The graphics are pretty good as is the whole game overall.

Why should I be surprised at this point after almost every single game I have ever played from Apple App Store has been a complete rip off and garbage these past 4 years that anything would change? At least when you were ripped off by games in google's app store on Samsung phones, they made sure you got your money back, but not Apple. No they allow these games to rip off their patrons with gusto and complete abandon.

I have been playing this game for three years. I have probably spent at least $1,000 on in-game purchases. I participate in nearly every event. I am barely in the top 200 on my quickly dying server. The only redeeming quality this game has are the friendships you form with your alliance mates. Full stop. Unless you are the recklessly spendthrift scion of some High Table wannabe crime lord, you will not truly enjoy this game. The last half dozen “features” introduced have just been naked cash grabs. You can’t get any of the new features without dropping hundreds of dollars. If you have played a phone game where your alliance wins territory, settles into a pretty much permanent hierarchy, then gets tossed into mini game server wars where you constantly get served up like hors d’oeuvres to pure whale alliances, you have basically played this game already. “Free to play” needs to die as a game model.

Till a public game become a private game controlled bye money

I was cautious at first about the game but quickly have become addicted to it. Once you get into a active alliance, the game becomes more of team play and strategy with lots of fun along the way.

I played about 20 months and spent much more on that game than on any other game I played. At the end, it made practically no difference in power I had compared to other more or less strong players. Add to it lots of grind, plus game is forcing event schedule on you and ton of Russian players with which I don’t want to be friends because of the war with Ukraine. Recommend playing something else.

It might just be me being impatient, but the game has been telling me what to do for the past 30 minutes. It gives me no option to do my own thing. And another thing I find ridiculous is that when you attacked by say an Imperial Patrol Fleet, you have to fight them single handedly, whenever a little bit ago the game forced you to construct several ships for your fleet. So why am I doing this all by myself if I have a fleet of ships?

Sad part is they have a good game however their aggressive tactics makes me hate it . You can’t get by most upgrades without throwing in big money!!!.. good luck
