My favorite!

I recommend downloading Critical Mass! 2022Missions are played in quick turns, and it feels like intense dogfighting in space. In a turn, the player adjusts the course of their spaceship, decides what types of missiles to fire, and can eject or use the ‘cloak’ or ‘forcefield’ ability.Before missions, the player is allotted points (rewarded by success) to assemble their squadron. Also, the mission briefing is given.After missions, the game reports the mission outcome and awards you and your surviving squadron. It feels good if you manage to keep your entire squadron alive.Here are a few tips I’d tell my past self:- Don’t shoot your buddies down!- Learn behavioral patterns!- Think two moves ahead.- You don’t have to fire at every chance.- READ MISSION BRIEFINGS!My best game just ended and lasted 14 missions, and I was awarded 2 gold medals (among others). Update: I’ve reached 20 missions with 4 gold medals! Update again: I'm a pro!

Great game. Missing a few polish items

Great game. I don’t like that you can’t turn off audio. I played this almost my entire 8 hours of flying. When playing on the PC, I don’t remember having to load up all 3 ship slots before I could go on a mission.

Love it

This game is so awesome I only wish it was more like the old original version from windows with the design your own ship feature

Very Cool Space Strategy Game

I like this game as a slower turn based space dog fight game. I would love to see the ability to mute the sound and maybe add the ability to continue on the missions with an extra life or two. Perhaps at a lower level for those just learning the game mechanics. I love all my Sean O’Connor games.

Will download. Won't open.

And, you know, I just don't think it's incumbent on me, the nontechnical consumer, to know how or why it won't work. There's four bucks I may as well have thrown in the street.

Nostalgia

Works just like I remember on my Windows 95. What a fantastically addicting game.

Pretty great but needs an update

The Mechanics and graphics of the game are great but they need to make some changes to make it more like the original. First they need to add the design your own ship feature. Secondly they need to make some simple updates like adding mission objective in game. Once you start the mission there is no way to see what your objective is. Another simple change I recommend is making it clear how to earn money. Sometimes you gain a lot some times you lose money when you successfully complete a mission. It seems to be related to you medal and how many of your squads ships supply but it is not clear. Overall a fun addictive game.

Very good game

Amazing game, more content for far less than most popular titles! An enjoyable strategy and semi-rouge like game.

One of my favorites from 1995, still play it weekly.

Praise: Man, what an utterly addictive game. This is probably the only game from back in the day I still play. I love that it’s available on iOS, making it my go-to on the bus, toilet, or when taking breaks at work. Sound design and graphics are great for what they are, and all the classic action is still there and very engaging. The ship selection is altered and stripped down, but gotta say I love the triple blaster Wasp starter. Overall, hard not to recommend this game.Criticisms: I do really miss the build your own ship feature, and I’m not a huge fan of the squadron construction (having to fill out every slot-as I recall the windows version you could go it alone for godly medals). Friendly fire seems to be a much bigger issue in this game, objectives aren’t viewable after mission start. And I’ve noticed bumping into other objects slows you down much more than on windows; I used to rely on sideswipes to make tight turns, but even a glance grinds you to a halt on iOS. Perhaps the worst change is lack of commands available to your squadron. I really miss “search for enemy”. it would also be nice not to have to watch the whole battle unfold after you eject/space/die if there’s a friendly squad you don’t control hanging in the battle. Finally, the “go” button should be bigger, and if I could wave my magic wand I’d love a landscape orientation option.That’s a lot of nitpicks, but don’t mistake my love for this game. I basically just want more Critical Mass on my phone! The classic desktop version is easily one of my favorite games of all time, but this is a solid, addictive port.

Critical Mass

Incredibly addictive. Turn based is great and does not take away from the action or tension of the dogfighting.

Description

Critical Mass is a game set in the future, where you are the commander of a squadron of spaceships. You will be sent on one of 40 different types of mission, ranging from protecting a convoy, to attacking an enemy starbase, to defending Earth. You fight enemy spaceships using six different types of missiles which home in on the nearest target, so you have to be careful not to destroy your own friends...

The game is turn based, but with missiles homing in on your tail, enemy ships weaving to get out of your line of sight and sirens screaming warnings at you it can get pretty frantic!
