Asteroids: Gunner Wiki

I have to update a review for this app that I had posted previously. I discovered that while I can't play this game on my iPhone 6s, I can play it on an old iPhone 4s that I had used before I got the newer phone. Once I learned that my 4s still had a purpose, I was able to play the game and save my progress. I finally was able to play it through until I had completed all levels. However, I suggest spending a couple of bucks and buying one of the upper-level ships that are offered because the scout is rather useless. Buy the battleship, even though it's a bit slow, because it can take a beating. But, don't look for any updates for this app in the future. Not only has this app not been updated within the past couple of years, Atari doesn't even discuss this game on their website anymore.

The game is great even with the ads. If you don't want the ads just get the paid version which comes with everything unlocked. And the only thing you pay for is the crystals. I haven't seen space bucks in the paid version at all yet.

For all the people crying about ads... Welcome to life... For all te crashing... Turn off your frickin device am turn it back on! I have a 3rd Gen ipod with 40mb of space left and the game runs flawlessly. Stop complaining because you guys dont know how to get rid of the lag

Game is addictive and fun, just like the old school asteroids, but way better! All that said it crashed yesterday just after I upgraded my ship and now when I open the game it just closes and I have nothing. Please send down the latest iPhone 5 fix so I can play again!!! B

The ads are completely annoying and takes away from the game like you would not believe. Why they did this and who told them this was a good idea?!!?

One annoying stupid flaw: The illiterate idiots who design these things don't know how to read so when they flash your objective tips up on the screen at the start of a game the dummies leave the words up way too briefly! Nobody could read some of those lines fast enough! This is a rampant problem not just in illiterate games but by inexperienced editors of movie trailers, films, TV programs, commercials and the culture in general as illiterate millennials and foreign scum continue to take over with their stupidity for convention if not inventive pioneering otherwise. STOP and think morons and the managers of these monkeys MUST BE FIRED!

Game crashes intermittently, wasting your money. You have to spend money on special weapons that only last while you're playing. It resets when you die or exit out, so make the most of it while you're playing or you're just wasting money. If the game crashes - you're SOL. It's an otherwise fun game.

I know this game is "free" (a term used very loosely in the app store these days) and expectations shouldn't be too high to begin with, but this was once a pretty good game that did justice to the original and I could overlook the fact that they wanted you to pay for certain upgrades/levels within the game. But apparently that wasn't enough to support the developers because now they sell ads that appear to an obnoxious degree throughout the game. And not only static ads, but VIDEO ads that interrupt the flow of the game and is a complete turnoff. I LOVE Atari and generally support every iOS release they put out but I won't be downloading any more of their "free" games and encouraging this type of product. I would MUCH rather pay for the initial download and be rid of in-app purchases and annoying pop-up ads. In fact, I think it's safe to say that your advertisers actually DISCOURAGE me from buying their product by pimping their goods this way. Hey Atari: How's about working on an update with new games on your greatest hits app that I'd happily pay for instead of this garbage?

But it still is way too greedy on pushing IAP. Game is fun, but an ad pops up every wave and upgrades cost a prohibitive amount so that it's nearly impossible to keep progressing without real money. As someone else mentioned Omegatech costs too much to be useful at all. Good gameplay Atari, but you're ruining it by pushing too hard for In App purchases and never updating. I'd rather pay for the App than have it ruined this way (don't pay for the + version, it is worse)

In particular, it crashes shortly after starting the game, which means those expensive power-ups are gone, and you get to spend more. This is with nothing else running in the background, recent reboot, no temp issues and no problems on other apps. Omega tech auto-harvest doesn't work, the military ship is weak, slow, and poor range! Thinking of deleting if not fixed...

Hitting us up with an add at the end of every wave? I bought space bucks. Why do I have to pay more to have the ads removed. make you money, guys, just don't be greedy. By the way, while the original game on the 2600 didn't have the graphics this version does, it was a heck of a lot more fun to play. This game is too slow, and the jet propulsion isnt nearly as cool as your original.

fun but game keeps crashing and you lose recently mined ore. also, omega tech is expensive, only lasts one round, and from what i could tell does not work. i loaded my tech into slot, then during game tried pressing the tab and the d@mn thing would not turn on, activate or whatever. nowhere does the game say this is unavailable on free version. Totally useless.

Just decided to give this app a go again... In 10 minutes it has crashed about 5 time already. Profile? Crash. Select ship? Crash. Start level? Crash... Etc. still some issues huh? Guess I'll try back in another year... (Previous review from last year) Seriously? Updated and then game crashed every time I ran it. I to lost all my records/money. I tried to contact support but they just told me to talk to apple...so I did and apple told me to contact Atari lol. Today I said to hell with it and deleted and reinstalled the app. Its back to the last version (that works) but still all my achieves and cash are gone. Ty Atari!

They still haven't fixed the Profile crashing issue so you can't see the achievements, the game still randomly crashes, ads are now between EVERY wave, but just loads a white screen and doesn't go back to the game, also there is no option to skip or close to get back to game so you have to close the game and reopen. This game just keeps getting worse and worse with every update. It really was a great game at release, but now, not even worth playing.
