  1. DarkZero

    Space Ark is a charming hybrid of a handful of classic arcade games. Its combination of score-beating arcade mentality, and devious puzzle elements in the later stages, make it shine against the murky backdrop of lesser XBLA titles.
  2. Eurogamer
    80
    If Bubble Bobble, Rainbow Islands and Arkanoid had a saucy three-way, Space Ark would be the love child.
  3. Gamestyle
    80
    It is a game you will happily complete the missions on, get some decent time attack scores and see how long you can last in Survival, then move on to the next game.
  4. Official Xbox Magazine

    Though Space Ark is a visual riot of bright pastels, sparkly special effects, and supermarket-circular-burst graphics, it'd be a stretch to say it ever becomes truly exciting. [July 2010, p.85]

  5. MS Xbox World
    70
    While it feels a little expensive at 800 Microsoft points, Space Ark is still a fun game.
  6. GameSpot
    65
    Space Ark is undeniably catchy, but too much repetition and too much cuteness can spoil the party.
  7. GameFocus
    48
    If someone were to ask me why they should buy Space Ark I would ask them if they really love to play games to compete on leaderboards and then I would ask them if they have superhuman patience and Arkanoid skills. That's the type of gamer that will likely enjoy this experience, the same ones that enjoyed the heyday of the Arcade. Old busted cabinets and all.
