UFO on Tape: First Contact Reviews

Tremendously Frustrating And Tedious

Miles Archer

A reasonable concept is here ruined by simply disastrous, one might even say inept, execution. There is little to no guidance as to the criteria required to progress from level to level, and the voiceover performances are laughably amateurish. As near as I can tell (remember, the player is left on his own trying to figure out what’s required to progress from level to level), the developers expect the player to replay level one repeatedly until a certain amount of money is earned (earned how? Beats me.) Now, level one, though brief, is tedious enough the first time through. I sure as heck am not going to slog my way through it multiple times to find out if level two is any kind of improvement. Yech.

Give it a Chance

The game is frustrating at first, but if you will take a little time to figure out the controls it’s pretty fun. I just wish it were longer.

Great atmosphere, poor level design

This is not a game made for mobile devices at the first place. You can clearly see it from the way of interacting with the UI. It’s designed for VR devices. And it certainly offers terrible experience for mobile users. The visual quality is pretty good, with the BGM and the setup of the scenario , the game does bring the experience of the Third Contact vividly. Therefore the game executes very well at this point. But the drawbacks are as obvious as the good parts. The zoom in / out, rotate the camera and take a shot can be easily mis-tapped during the high speed UFO chasing. The criteria for moving on to the next level are very restricted. It ended up asking players to play the first level again and again in order to meet the minimum requirement to move on. This is a quite negative and rejecting experience for any new player. The concept of the game is great. The atmosphere is great. But the UI, control and level design is not ideal for a mobile game. So I am looking forward to some updates for those parts, because I do want to continue the game after those annoying experience improved.

Absolutely amazing

awesome dude74

The only reason one star was taken off, lack of levels. Make more! ?

Very awesome game. It might have some quarks!! But come on people!! They pick things apart because there negative skin bags that have no patience and want everything handed to them on a silver platter with a golden spoon and a set of divine instructions., This game is easy to Figure out. Ya it wants you to get the lvl and see all the action before you move on to the next nothing wrong with that at all.,keep it up I absolutely love this game and wish there where more like it.. Seriously it’s awesome. Start it knowing you won’t get it right the first time no biggie. No one has ever started a game beat it first try first life!! Get serious guys.. To the developers keep it up.! Don’t let these pests and roaches stop you from making another awesome and very much needed ufo game!!! Thank you., with all the games on the mobile I personally believe it’s one of the best for it’s type and what it is.,Again I love it thank you very much!!!

One of the challenges is bugged

In the mountain level, the SOS on the mountain challenge is bugged. I can’t get to the fourth level. Also, the frame rate is wildly inconsistent and varies between levels. Edit: Okay I just figured out that each photo has 3 star ratings. That really helps.
