    Not sure how this is so highly rated, but its not worth .89 cents. Repetitive and derivative game play. I don't read Cyrillic and the devs couldn't be bothered to do a full translation to English. And really, you couldn't include a radar?! wouldn't be shocked if this were an asset flip.

    Very repetitive, and very boring. UI is lacking, "gameplay" is utterly mindless, there's little to no indication you're hitting something until it dies, and the display screen in the cockpit view is a static image unrelated to the game. Over half of the "reviews" share the same stilted structure and flowery descriptions, even for features not in the game; they feel like AI bots or bought from a marketing site. I got this in a bundle that was 92% off; now I see why. Not worth your time.

    I would rate this as more of 3 out of 10 if I could. It's not the worst thing I ever played, but far from the best. Gameplay is super repetitive, but not entirely mundane. There are a couple of different attack options (nuke is kind of cool), but attacking and maneuvering feels really clunky in general. If you play it right, you can get pretty good at it, but it's easy to get blasted to smithereens if you advance too quickly. So, no real sense of speed, nor do you have any capacity to…

    IF YOU'RE READING THIS, DON'T BUY THIS PIECE OF DOG'S (you know the sequel). It's a total failure; all the positive reviews are fake. I don't even know where to start because everything about it is bad. It looks more like a student project than a real game. The game's interface is terrible. During gameplay, the health and armor levels cover an important part of the screen. The gameplay itself is meaningless: fly, shoot. The controls are average at best, but the behavior of the enemies,…

    I was bored by mission 2. Very repetitive. Only pro - Nice graphics in background. Mission intros are boring and cant be skipped.

    The Wraith of the Galaxy is a cool space shooter, where we can destroy rocks, enemies and almost planets. Graphics is very good, gameplay too. If you like space theme, you should give this game a try.

    A dynamic space fighting game where you need to destroy the enemy as soon as possible. For those who like to shoot, it will go at a discount.

    The Wraith of the Galaxy has good graphics and sound effects, but the gameplay can get repetitive and boring after a while. Also, the storyline is unoriginal and lacks depth. The game has potential but needs improvement in its mechanics and storytelling to make it more engaging.

    Promised cosmic horror but delivered a tedious slog. Clunky controls, repetitive quests, and lifeless characters drain all immersion. The story drowns in generic sci-fi tropes.

    The Wraith of the Galaxy offers a fresh and ambitious take on the space action RPG genre, blending fast-paced combat with deep exploration and a rich sci-fi narrative. From the outset, the game immerses players in a vast galaxy teeming with mystery, danger, and opportunity. With its sprawling open-world design, players are encouraged to chart their own course, taking on missions, upgrading their ship, and engaging in intense dogfights with a variety of alien threats. The blend of RPG elements…

    I respect that this took time to make. It took exactly the amount of time of one student course in game programming. I had to re-launch the game to get enough time in it to write a review. Alt-F4 is the only keybind you'll need. This is not a product for market.

    The Wraith of the Galaxy - is a third-person space fighting game in which you have to destroy the aliens that have taken over the entire outer space. 6 interesting missions in which you have to enjoy space views, test different weapons and most importantly - destroy a lot of different space enemies.

    The game is difficult to understand without a proper tutorial, the controls are strange, and you have to watch the same cutscene too often after dying. The gameplay feels repetitive, and the sense of direction is lost due to the lack of proper navigation

    Horrible game. Controls bad, graphics bad, is that even I game? You cannot abort the really long tutorial intro, which you have to endure every time you try it again. Without doubt, this is the worst "game" I have ever played in the last 10 years.

    К сожалению, эта игра оказалась сплошным разочарованием. С самого начала меня неприятно удивила крайне неудобная система управления — персонажи двигаются рывками, а реакции на команды запаздывают на несколько секунд. Графика выглядит устаревшей даже для мобильных устройств: текстуры размытые, анимации примитивные, а цветовая палитра унылая. Сюжет абсолютно не цепляет — шаблонный сценарий с предсказуемыми поворотами и картонными персонажами. Диалоги написаны сухо и неинтересно, мотивации героев…

    I gave this game a fair try but after 10 minutes and trying three different levels, the experience was pretty dull. The gameplay loop is bland and repetitive, and the interface is quite barebones. As other reviewers have mentioned, many of the positive reviews seem quite generic and look fake. The game feels more like a student project than a finished product worth selling.

    Surprisingly fun space shooter! The controls feel responsive once you get used to them, and the battles can get really intense. I love the atmosphere and visuals — they make exploring the galaxy exciting. Missions are varied enough to keep things interesting, and it’s satisfying to upgrade your ship and try new strategies. Definitely worth giving a shot!
