Its really pricey for a mobile game. Thats a major fact about this game. You could buy minecraft pocket edition with money to spare. However, i think this game is really fun, if a but artificially challenging and kinda RNG when it comes to winning. E.g. i had 8 runs left, and i had to get 500 alien research in that time and still have one run left. I found 3 alien sites in that time after clearing out 6/7 systems. I had 5 level four and five crew members and still couldnt make it. The joy you get from winning is amazing though and it will take a few hours to complete a game unless your trying to go fast. All that said, go play seedship (the devs previous game) before you try this as its free and is more or less the demo for this game. Edit: This game is very clearly unfinished to me. There are too many events that cause you to get shafted and they are too frequent. Example, dense radiaton hits the ship, you can prioritise the ship or the crew, if you fail rhe check on either then borh get damaged, if you win the check the other gets damaged. I had 2/3 ship hp. Get hit with this event and fail the check, I immediately set course back for home, and get hit with the same event. And fail. Not fun, really not fun. Also the fact enclusion of loss/loss check that when entering the gate on the way home is just cruel

Buckle up. Do read the "How to play" section. Remember, you can click on the highlighted words during your journey, which will take you to new scenarios. Looking forward to the next game. 5 Stars.

I really wanted to like this game. I love the creator’s other game, Seedship, but BtCG doesn’t quite live up to it. The narrative aspect is too weak for an entirely text based game. Every star system is essentially the same, every interaction with an alien civilization will play out the exact same way, and even every playthrough is going to be virtually identical. If it just had more variety this would be a much better game. It’s still a nice little space game, but it’s hard to justify $10 for a text-only game that fails at the only thing text-based games are supposed to be good at. I do hope this game gets updated, and maybe someday this will really be an awesome game, but right now it just isn’t.

Great game! Really excellent imagination by the author. Amazing little stories, and even some events that carve a journey. In the end I am missing a bit more technologies to develop, and a bit more diversity. As quite a few encounters looks a bit like each other, or maybe it’s the rng doing the game a disfavor. I had 2 playthroughs and one the game on 2nd try. I see quite a bit replayability though, even though it can become a bit repetitive, when you don’t have that much to impact other than gaining levels for the crew, and insights preorbit of a planet. Technologies would help there. Well worth the money. Seed ship was great. But this is a whole different level. I can recommend if you like games like this.

I love the story to this app, but VoiceOver clicks on links when I'm trying to read the story. It actually ended the game once. This game really deserves 5 stars, but I'm not playing it again until the error with VoiceOver is fixed.

1.1.5 PATCH NOTES * Revised Epic event text that didn't make sense if only one explorer was alive * Volcanic sulphur dusting can no longer spawn on high gravity worlds * If you continue in endless mode after losing your ship in the endgame, the "this is the ship's Nth trip" counter resets to reflect that it's a new ship * Fixed a couple of discoveries missing tooltips * Several typo fixes
