Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“The ship building and the flight mechanics are really good and fun but cannot carry the game. The rest of the game is trash, just trash. $15 a month?? for trash? The devs are just squeaking along trying to keep the little paying customers…”
“Edit: I had a fairly positive outlook for the future of this game, but the EULA makes this game literally unplayable and dang right trash. Here is direct quote from section 4.2 of EULA "You also waive any moral rights that may apply."”
