Solar Walk Lite - Planetarium

authentic rating

Solar Walk Lite is treated almost as an exploration game of the solar system, and kids and hobbyists like the realistic graphics, spawning black holes and quasars, and the handsome Jupiter. But the free version is buried in ads: long clips pop up on every tap, sometimes kid-inappropriate, and many can't manage to buy them away. The second letdown is that 'the universe at your fingertips' is really limited to a single solar system.

About the rating

Store 4.65 against text 4.29 is close, and the complaint is single and concrete across nearly all ratings: ads pop up on every tap. Praise is specific too (spawning black holes, realistic Jupiter), but many call it a 'game', which honestly reflects how it's used.
