SimpleRockets v1.6.13
Jundroo, LLCAbout this app
Developer Description
Design rocket ships, blast off into space, and explore the solar system.
CREATE
Choose and connect parts together to build rocket ships. You can choose from a variety of rocket engines, fuel tanks, and other gizmos. You can even build rovers with powered wheels. You are only limited by your imagination.
EXPLORE
Blast off from any planet you want. You can fly through the intense atmosphere of Venus, or you can take advantage of the low gravity of Mercury. Whip around the sun and launch yourself out to the far reaches of the solar system.
CHALLENGES
Several challenges are built into the game so you can compete to see who can go the fastest, fly the farthest, orbit with the least amount of fuel, land on the moon, and so much more.
ROCKET SCIENCE
Kepler wrote the equations 400 years ago, and SimpleRockets uses those equations to model extremely realistic orbital physics. Players will learn about rocket science and astrodynamics while they are having a blast exploring the solar system. This makes SimpleRockets ideal for the classroom, or as a healthy alternative to the barrage of brainless games available on the App Store.

Simple Rockets is a great game. It makes rocketry, a very complex subject, through use of intuitive controls and helpful tutorials, simple enough for anyone to understand and enjoy. Alongside a sandbox of the whole Solar System, there are also many, many different challenges of varying difficulty so you will never be bored with the game. I heavily recommend this game to anyone who loves science, rocketry, or just fun in general.
I love it, but rcs control itself and the user isn't doin anything also same with the launch the space ship turn its by itself, pls fix this idk if bug or whatever but pls fix. Bye.
yeah it is kinda fun, but not really. -no career modes. you have no objective to do anything. -since it is 2d, you can't see planets, until you land on them. -no maneuver planning like in ksp. you just guess what will happen, fire the engines and hope for the best. i managed to go to mars, but i don't think anyone who doesnt have some experience in ksp could do it. -can't focus on a planet while flying. it makes even harder to get a nice encounter with a planet. 3 stars at best.
This game feels like a dumbed-down version of Spaceflight Simulator; there are far fewer parts, less things you can do with those parts (toggling individual engines repeatedly), and features in the UI that I really liked in SFS but are missing here (switching ships in the map). I realize that this is called SimpleRockets, but that should unjustify the price. To make the price justifiable, there needs to be much more content. I do hope this review helps but this game is a bit of a disappointment.
The biggest flaw with this game is that parts will not connect in more than one place, no matter what. This essentially makes building large rockets impossible because they will be unstable. 5+ years after I bought this game this simple feature has not been included. Sad, and essentially ruins any fun I could have with this game building large payload rockets due to the instability.
