What Makes Space Frontier Stand Out
Blast off to the stratosphere and colonize Mars in Space Frontier, the addictive physics rocket game that your friends will want to play—but they can’t! Because it’s your phone. But hey! They can download it on theirs, too. In fact, you want them to do that. So you can pound them into dust with your superior rocket scores!
In Space Frontier your mission is to launch your rocket as high in to the orbit as possible and beyond to Mars. Earn in-game currency from launches and hard working Martians. Invest it to acquire new parts/styles, and send more people to mars!
Easy to play but hard to master gameplay means you’ll be coming back again and again for one more boost.

Community Insight:
Not bad, tap the screen a few times and then sit though ads that last 3-4 times the duration of the game itself. As for the game, its all about timing, not too challenging but its a grind to earn enough to upgrade. But really, its a bunch of ads with a game in between.
We love this game, its easy and makes perfect sense with a goal. One thing is that this game takes waaaaaaaayyy to long to get coins which means you have to grind the game for hours on end to just add one thing to your ship, especially on Mars. Thats our main point but other than that great game and keep doing what you do best.
You should def add more planets. Why are we only allowed to go to Mars and Euphora or whatever it is?? You could strategize this game into something much more for sure. Overall, its a fun time killer.
We got super fat in the past and had to delete it and now we cant get anything back.
We love the carl sagan quote. The cosmos is within us we are made of start-stuff.
First off we arent even allowed to pick the rockets we want secondly you change the price of the rockets to 400 coins to 1,000 and when you get to some of the last its increased to 3,000. Thats for having us grind 2 hours not even getting the rocket we want and wasting 2 hours of our life, not to mention the capitalistic ads we were FORCED to watch wow. Unbelievable, screw your biased algorithm the devs can take this monstrosity of a game and shove it you know where. But hey they will probably get mad reading this post and delete it from existence so the eyes of unweary victims wont see this warning because the devs know this is true, capitalist scum.
When we watched an ad, it did the boom sound repeatedly super fast, and then did the sad music in an ad, pls fix this bug.
We finished the whole game and it was great very well designed and a great idea please add another planet that gives more money/hour and have it be infinite. Great game 10/10.
We dont mind that there are ads but, ads pop up during gameplay. It doesnt make sense.
Its fun for a bit, but is get very boring fast. They need of add something to make the game more interesting.
This is a joke of a game, unless you want to pay.
We do not play this but if u look at the privacy for the app it collects personal info do not get this.
Its a timing game so you have to be precise with your timing, except the game lags and stutters every time you're supposed to tap so you either decouple way too early losing fuel or you just blow up losing people and end up watching an ad. Ad every two launches by the way and one launch in the beginning of the game takes about 10 seconds, so have fun with all them ads. Not worth it in our opinion.
The audio cuts after running for 45 seconds and you have to close and open app again to get it back. Then it shows you 30 second ads without asking every 90 seconds which is really annoying. Its not worth it to play with that much ads, not fun enough at least.
Any game with forced ads is a hard pass for us. Get ready for 30 seconds of ads for every three attempts you make. Youll spend almost as much time watching ads as you will playing the game. Hooray.
Its a fun game and all but you just get to Mars and thats it, we think you should add more planets and levels, and maybe enemies, new people, and more ways to customize your ship. If you do this you will get a lot more players, and a lot more money! We hope you will read this and many other reveiws that say the same thing and update this game so more people would get it! (Oh and try to make it iOS 12.0 because thats the version we have!) So we hope that you can do that because it could make a lot of people happy, and you can get lots of money! (And we dont really think its 12+, sure the rocket sometimes explodes, but we wouldnt really call that 12+ maybe 7 or 8+).
Great idea. The amount of ads is ridiculous.
We Like This Game And we Wish This Game Can Add Europa Rockets So We Have More To Colonize And We Should Go To Saturns Moon Titan And The Score To Colonize Titan Is 22,500 Points And Thats our Wish And Heres 5 Stars And Also, You Can Add People To Titan And Add Very Impressive Details And Textures And In The Future, You Can Also Add Titan Rockets With Astronauts And Colonize Other Moons, Also our High Score Of Europa Is 44,838 Points.
We love this game, and we remember playing it years ago before we were even ten years old! But we never remember this many ads. Ever run or so (about 30 seconds – 1 minute) theres an unskippable 30 second ad and it really takes away from the game.
We like the game but one problem it not realistic but in a later update add the moon Pls.
You spend more time watching ads than playing the game.
Would be higher but we never get our offline earnings when longing back in.
Way way to many ads and the ads are very long. Each ad is a minute long.
Ive played this game for years and it never got old love this game.
This game is a great thing to burn time and is very fun.
SO MANY ADS. Uh oh looks like you have a game in your ads. TO MANY ADS LIKE FOR REAL THE GAME ISNT EVEN THAT FUN. WHEN YOU DIE UH OH TOO BAD SO SAD HERES ANOTHER. FHCKING AD . WHO THOUGH OF THIS TRASH.
Dont download this game it is all ads for the developers to milk us for money.
So let us start off by (insert full screen 45 second ad here) by saying that this could be a (insert 45 second ad here) fun little game. If you spend (insert 45 second ad here) some.. You know what, its just junk, dont even download it. (Insert 45 second ad here).
Nice game to pass a few minutes on once in a while. The only thing that Id like to see is the spinner actually reflecting the odds of rolling on stuff. Just annoying seeing all of the bigger rewards having the same space on the wheel as the tiny rewards when you get the tiny rewards like 99% of the times you spin so the odds clearly dont reflect on the wheel.
The game is very fun & interesting to play. We like how you go from earth all the way up to Mars, than from Mars to Europa. We hope in time you guys make it where you can continue flying to other plants. (colonize the planets too) for fun. The only thing is the part where you have to tap at the right moment before the spacecraft explodes, we wish it was a tab bit easier to get the perfect tap break off. Overall a very good space aircraft game.
It was fun at the start, a simple premise executed (fairly) well… It wasnt too hard… Until we got about 3 upgrades in. And boom… 20k for an upgrade? We were barely making 700 now, how could we get to that number? Its fine. We pulled ahead. It was a little annoying, but hey, it should be easier next time, right? Wrong. It was even worse. Now we have to get 60k… Yeah, you couldnt pay us to spend our time trying to get to that… As other reviews have said, this is extremely annoying… It seems like youre trying to force people to watch ads so they can afford these upgrades… Other than that, we really cant complain. The game is okay. Its not that exciting, maybe a little stressful, but its okay. The insanely priced upgrades are just a huge roadblock, though.
Needs an update with more achievements. We got as far as we could go in two weeks.
Used to be fun now just full of ads.
After watching ads the app will not award us the coins for watching it. This glitch mostly happens with the ads that have two parts. The first bing 30 seconds or so and the second one is around 7 seconds. After watching the whole thing we select the x and it doesnt give us the coins. Pretty annoying. Other than that great game. We wish you could change the captains voice though.
15 seconds of gameplay, followed by 30 seconds of advertising.
You cant even play the game to much adds, is so sad.
Super fun and easy and challenging.
This game is unbelievably addicting. You can spend a lot of time playing it and not get bored. It is so much fun to try to get the Rockets to Mars. Havent gotten there yet but Im having fun trying.
This game is the most fun Ive had In a while. Make a computer version! Also we agree with Dierks91. That is a huge opportunity wasted. That would be so fun.
More planets and moons please? We love this game, and its a shame theres only 3.
We really love this game, its nostalgic to us at this point. Its tragic how ad covered this is, you can barely even play the game like you used to.
Every time we can land one person on Mars but every time we try to land more then one person we just explodes.
We got an ad as soon as we opened the app and an ad every two tries. Kind of ridiculous.
We cant complete the first level bad game.
There is sooooo many ads you cannot enjoy the game.
Dont play this game becuase it gives YOU A DUMB JACKPOT AD EVERY 2 SECONDS!! LIKE WHO DOES THAT.
Literally loads into the ad, as soon as you download it.
Prior to the influx of recent updates, the app worked just fine and was actually playable and fun! However, with the addition of these new intrusive ads, you can no longer enjoy playing this game. It has become intolerable. We're so upset that they did this! This game was loved by many and had so much potential. We're most likely deleting it now.
Used to be a fun game until just recently. Now there are ads you can get rid of that block the screen. Cant launch rockets anymore.
We always try to launch the rocket but the green line gets smaller every time we upgrade our rocket and we cant see it to get a good boost so it always explodes in mid air and its frustrating that this game has this its an unstall from us if you could fix that it would be great.
