Gameplay experiences vary significantly among users; while some appreciate the depth and complexity of the mechanics, others find them tedious and unengaging, leading to early uninstalls. The game performs better on newer devices, but even on older ones, players can still enjoy the mechanics, albeit with a learning curve. Overall, the gameplay is described as both intricate and potentially overwhelming, contributing to mixed feelings about player engagement.
“Such a stunning visual and a chilling storyline that is complicated by the smooth, slightly complex gameplay.”
“Great game, in-depth resource mechanics.”
“Uninstalled after an hour of gameplay, due to an oppressive sense of boredom that disinterested me from making an effort to familiarize myself with the game mechanics and UI.”

The graphics in the game are generally praised for their quality and crispness, with players appreciating the customization options for planets and ships. While the game performs better on higher-end devices, it remains playable on older models, emphasizing that the focus is more on gameplay than visuals. Overall, the graphics contribute positively to the immersive experience of exploring a vast galaxy filled with diverse planets.
“The graphics are nice, and I like the fact that I can spend money to make my planets and ships look how I like (color-wise).”
“The game is really good, quite a complex management system, especially the buildings that produce certain materials. The graphics are crisp, and the entire concept is incredibly unique and deeply fascinating. I'm not going to complain as there is nothing to complain about, so 5 stars rating from me.”
“It's active all the time, great graphics, great selection of ships and add-ons, and a massive galaxy to explore. No system is empty; there are thousands of planets to colonize.”
“It's much better on better devices, but my mobile is from 2016, and I can still play it on the lowest settings. However, I am not here for graphics, but gameplay.”
“The graphics are crisp, but I think the overall visual presentation could use improvement to match the complexity of the gameplay.”

The story is praised for its stunning visuals and chilling complexity, but players have encountered glitches that hinder quest completion, particularly during the tutorial. While the narrative shows potential, the intimidating learning curve and resource management issues detract from the overall experience.
“Such a stunning visual and a chilling storyline that is complicated by the smooth, slightly complex gameplay.”
“The reason for 3 stars instead of 4 or 5 is that sometimes the quests glitch, and I end up not being able to complete the tutorial.”
“So far, it seems like it could turn out to be a great game, but the learning process is a bit intimidating. If you try to follow the starter missions, it could be a waste of resources if you're not careful, and the lack of players means you can't rely on trade for income.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat tedious, often resorting to AI control for farming and fighting due to its efficiency, which diminishes engagement and makes battles feel repetitive. Additionally, the process of earning in-game currency (cred) is perceived as overly grindy.
“I quickly switched to AI control when farming and fighting, as it was simply more efficient than I could ever be. This led to a lack of engagement, making the battles feel repetitive, but perhaps that is to be expected in any game focused on collecting and building.”
“It is very grindy to earn credits.”
