April 28, 2011
To those of you who are fans of space sims with interstellar trading, dog fighting, and exploration, you must have heard of (and probably own) Galaxy on Fire 2 ($9.99) for the iDevices. The game is a universal app that kind of sneaked up on the iOS gaming scene with a surprise. This is because the game is quite massive for the platform with gamers used to casual pick-up-and-play titles. It feels like a game designed to play on a PC actually, but comes as a welcome surprised to us who want deeper games on the platform as well. The new Valkyrie expansion released today adds even more gameplay options and longevity to the title; and it is already available on the App Store. It comes as a $4.99 in-app purchase and has some interesting features as part of its package.To make the expansion possible, FISHLABS has proceeded to update Galaxy on Fire 2 to version 1.05.
