    For an Indie game that cost a buck, definitely worth it.

    A beautiful game, with a very nice soundtrack. Though it may become boring after a while, it is a great time waster which you can pick up at any moment.

    This is a definite 9/10 it is entirely unique and deserves and is one of the best indie game innovations the game has great missions but it is very fun to fly around as a star collecting planets then attacking other life systems with those planets forces

    This game is a very simple but also fun indie game that has lots of potential if they create DLC or make a sequel solar 3 and add on the ideas of a solar universe.

    Well made, good looking, calm game with realistic physics, but it does get a bit boring faster than I'd like, I think the steam price is slightly too much as after 20-30 minutes of playing you get bored, and after a total of maximum two hours you'll be bored and won't go back to it after a while, but a nice simple game to have especially to entertain young children for a while.

    Interesting for one life cycle, but after the second Big Bang the universe offers nothing new. [Feb 2012]

    7 quid is a good price for a universe. [Sept 2011, p.89]

    As it exists now, however, Solar 2 is a simple space physics simulation with just a hint of a game, and building disposable arrangements of revolving circles quickly loses its novelty. [Oct 2011, p.79]
