Space Ace App Reviews

A fabulous game. Really brings me back to my youth! The graphics are awesome - just like watching an animated film!! 5 stars!!! Well worth the cost.

This is pretty much as I remembered the arcade version (not that yucky pc one). I would recommend for anyone looking for nostalgia, but new players should know that the gameplay is very short compared to today standards. The only thing keeping this from 5 stars is presence of macro-blocking during some of the fast action scenes.

You cant even enjoy the game because youre staring at the stupid buttons waiting to find out which one youre supposed to push. Youre not even playing the game! Waste of time and money, dont bother!

Wow this is so cool. I spent so much money on this game when I was young and never got to the end. Now I have and on my iPhone. How cool is that?

Ive only played the Dragons Lair games but never Space Ace. Since I downloaded it, I fell in love and amm highly addicted to it. Controls are just perfect and gameplay is sweet. I highly recommend this app to all ages, for the price, its captiveness and the fact that its a classic. Keep up the great work!

It seems like this game is only for old-school people, and not for people like me who really enjoy gameloft, ngmoco, and electronic arts. Cant figure out why in the world I bought this game! Not worth the money. atleast not for me !!!!!!!!!!!!

Classic Game done amazingly well on the iPod Touch/iPhone. Of all the versions I have played throughout the years this has to be about the best running version out there. Be warned for those that have never played an animated laserdisc game from the 80s, this is a short game that has you memorize moves to an animated cartoon. For people out there that fed quarter after quarter into these machines when they were younger it is a nostalgic trip down memory lane. I am a huge fan of Don Bluths laserdisc games and look forward to Dragons Lair and Dragons Lair 2: Time Warp. My only gripe is it is missing the roller skates section of the game.

Perfect port in fact, too perfect as the the software emulation even makes the same mistakes the original arcade game made when accessing scenes from the laserdisk! Has anyone else noticed this? Get this game! Period! Dragons Lair cant be hard to find!

If you grew up on Dragons Lair and Space Ace youll "get" this game. Younger gamers might not enjoy the ambiguous controls but if youre old school, see how your parents wiggled a joystick!

when i was a kid i waz dirt poor and saw dragon,s lair i waz mezmerized by it , played it twice wth the only dollar i had,fell in love wth the cartoon action but it disapeared in2 the myst then i saw 2 other games by don bluth hurrah 2 u...those games were space ace & cliffhanger.i hope u put those on the apps departmnt sumtime soon !!! i ll buy those 2 and anything don ur the man bluth can imagine. thnxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx peace out cheerz john st.michael

Only two quibbles: needs the ability to watch your game. I usually get killed because Im watching the animation. And the controls could be a little less transparent, theyre a little hard to see. Possibly just a preference setting? Otherwise great retro arcade game!

Im ten years old again... Except this time I didnt have to wait in line, didnt spend twenty bucks worth of quarters in a single day, and actually finished the game! I beat the game on Cadet mode in a day, but three days into Ace mode and Im still on the fourth stage. Well worth the five bucks.

Not worth the money but the game is fun

Best game I have purchased yet. Arcade perfect port.. I cant beleive Im playing this game on my phone.

Brings me back to my childhood days. If you were around in the days of Dragons Lair and Super Punchout, you would really appreciate this game.

Digital Leisure did a great job with this game. This is literally the best home port of the classic laserdisc game Ive ever played. As a note to R2-JD who left a review previously stating that the "rollerskates" scene wasnt in this version, it is. However like the arcade, you have to be playing on "Ace" difficulty to see it (same with the "masher" sequence and the "checkerboard tunnel" sequence). All in all, an absolute blast/joy to play if youre a fan of 80s laserdisc games, and worth a look even if youve never played one.

This is a faithful reproduction of the original laserdisc game, but the iPhone touch controls are not responsive enough for this reflex twitch game. Sometimes youre literally hitting the button while its still glowing yellow and it doesnt register. I guess you get to see Don Bluths brilliant animation over and over!

This is a very faithful reproduction of the original arcade version and even has difficulty levels which is a very nice feature. My only problem with the game is theres a few missing scenes such as the roller skating in the maze and the snakes with the crushing machine chapters are 100% missing. Also, the opening frames from the floating platform part is missing. Besides a few missing scenes it is the same as the original version. I wonder why they cut a few scenes, wish they had not. Still a good buy for fans of the game.

It looks like the game is really fast...Some scenes are cut... In some place where you to not activate your power the scene continue as if you did it and then skips to the part where you didnt ... Great game overall.... But Id rather stick with my CD-I version

Fast paced, just like the original arcade version. The animation and audio is great and the controls are super responsive. Play Dragons Lair first and your reflexes will be primed and ready for this nostalgic space romp. Man, I love this !
