Ur-Quan Masters

The last time I played this game was a hacked apart version one of my uncles passed onto my brother and I; basic music and sound effects, no voices, and a weird glitchy thing that would allow you to bypass the verification at the beginning. I poured many hours into the game back then, and was totally stoked to see this game available for play on the go. While the controls are not my cup of tea, this game (with added voices and upgraded music) is still a joy to replay.

The controls don't work. Just spent 15 minutes trying to get to earth at the beginning of the game. Just implement a standard gamepad.

A fantastic classic game experience completely crippled by a control scheme that just doesn't work for touchscreens. I really cannot overstate how terrible and unplayable the whole experience becomes.

It is screw the controls. Its a port. As in unchangeable. You know how to fix your problem. Get good. This hasto be on the editors page.

controls could be better. i would prefer is it had like A ,B, X,Y,Z,O buttons like on an xbox controller. would make more sense than some weird alien icons for controls.

This brings back memories. Very well playable on mobile device, well done! Let's hope the next game by Stardock willen be at least half as good... :-)

Is the bees Knees, I played it when the port for PC came out, and then I saw this and nearly cried. This game is in-depth, classic, awesome, and enjoyable. It's challenging, addictive, and has good replay-ability. Star Control 2 UQM, tops it's previous adversary, and the following SC3. This game is amazing, not to mention it's FREE! Download this game, charge up your phone, and save the universe from The Ur-Quan Masters!

2016 update: With all the negative (control) reviews youd think these idiots would fix them. 2013 review: Unplayable garbage unlike the original. Theres NO spin control? Only turning while accelerating forward. I try to fly to a planet only to miss it completely, and this system of (non spinning) controls makes space combat impossibe since spinning is mandatory. If I could rate less than 1 star I would. More accurate is A thru F, I give it an F-

I played this series for many years on the PC. I cannot believe its a free app. It is complete and just as it was on PC. Endless fun.

Until there's a Console version, my 'ol friend, I'll play you! Love this game!

Great audio and graphics port but the controls make this game virtually unplayable.

Hi! I love this app, you guys have done an amazing job. I have one small problem which ill get to. I think the controls are great, it just take a little getting used to. Perhaps for some you can put a WASD pad down? Optional. My issue is that there is no third action button for battle escapes. It is kinda essential to have. Otherwise all is great. 5 stars if it had that. And maybe on initialise you could give the option to dl the extra content again, if not doqnloaded on first initialise.

I love the Ur quan masters, but I'd love to see some improvements to the control scheme. I'd love to be able to use the gamepad app for this or to be able to turn off the diagnol direction movement keys when I set the ship movement to be old school.

True star control fans would give it 5 stars anyone else rating lower have no business playing this game.

This has a lot of effort and this is a really good game so 5 out of 5

This was one of the first video games I got into as a kid, and I can honestly say it spawned a lifelong love of RPG and scie... PRIORITY OVER-RIDE NEW BEHAVIOR DICTATED MUST BREAK TARGET INTO COMPONENT MATERIALS

The game works great. To escape press the devices 'back' key. I play the onscreen controls on samsung s4 with no problems.

I always liked this game, so what if it is ten years older than I am? Now playing tablet version and its pretty great. People complain about the controls but I think they are fine. Only one tiny problem remains for the tablet version: how the hell do I get my lander to fire its weapon? Tried for hours to make it work to no avail. It seems like a minor issue but completing the campaign without being able to hunt innocent creatures for credits... Im not seeng it.

Wonders never cease. Only issue I have is accidental exits due to button placement. If we could change screen orientation (top to bottom) that'd solve it for me.

Just how I remember it Yea the controls are a pain to get used to but fun and extremely addictive! !

the on-screen controls are next to useless. Virtual joystick is probably the worst idea. Remapping physical buttons doesn't help, there's keyjam.

Perfect, no bugs as of yet, and the controls work well.

I started playing Ur-Quan Masters a few years ago, when a relative found that people had taken the original game and made it for pc. Since then, I found this app. I thought, "Why not give it a try?" I enjoy the challenge from new controls, and have only tested out combat since I am not far into this version of the game. One thing though, I can't figure out how to remove ships in super melee on Android. Am I missing something, or is it not there?

5 star raters mustve never played the original and dont know what to compare this trash to. A huge step backwards from the original. Theres NO ?spin control? only turning while thrusting forward making combat and navigation 20 times harder than neccesary. A true disgrace to Star Control fans. Update:I reinstalled to give it another chance cuz I love Star Control. I can't do it. The controls are that freaking bad. Fix this BS.

I forgot how much I missed this game. It plays well on my Nexus 7.

Great work! When do we get to see a Real SC3

Bump version, thats gold.

of arguably one of the best games ever made for any platform ever.

Touch controls are a tad hard, might have to rely on ai control for battles, but otherwise is great!

Such a shame.

Nuff said

NOW

I used to play this on the 3DO

Only reason for the so so rating is that some of the ships need to use the primary and secondary fire at the same time to be effective and in this app you cant do that

I started playing this on PC and instantly fell in love. After spending 10 hours playing on PC I got it on my phone and its great. Kinda weird that the controls and options havent been changed to be for Android, and I also can't see how to change the controls to d-pad. Still great to see a mobile port

I love this game so much but messing with the touchscreen controls makes the interface all wonky and there is no return to default. Please add a return to default. Other than that, thank you for this game!

Tried to download to a Samsung galaxy s5. Gave me two different error messages. This is the most recent. Used to play starcon on PC. Would love to play this game. Please fix.

thers only one problem the ending is agravateing i dont like how the the kohr-ah ends the game id like to see that changed,for more long term players i didnt have enough time to explore the game

I really want to like this but the controls are way more difficult than they should be.
