Ratings and reviews

I absolutely love this game. I wouldn't even rly call it a game, as it's more of an app. the graphics are quite good, and I love how it cites Wikipedia articles for different planets. There are some visual bugs with the character model, and the animations could be better, but the sheer size of this game more than makes up for it.

The game is actually quite accurate and fun to explore. It's like if Space Engine was on mobile for free except the quality isn't perfect. (But for a mobile game the quality is really great even on low settings.) I like the detail that gas giants have multiple detailed layers and your character dies if they walk on a planet unsuitable for life. (But if you don't want that to happen turn on invincible mode in settings.) Overall, this is a really great game for space enthusiasts and I recommend.

Such a cool app! I had its predecessor (3d Galaxy Map) and this is a big boost in ease of use. My biggest wish for it would be able to view blocks greater than 10pc³, say 100pc³ or larger, but I realize that may be difficult. On my Galaxy S21 it also cuts off a far right sliver of the text boxes, making them difficult to read. It would also be neat if you could switch to galactic coordinates (it uses celestial Cartesian), or at least put lines in to indicate galactic north, center, etc.
