Spaceflight Simulation does a good job providing a fairly comprehensive spaceflight experience, as well as a detailed vehicle design/assembly feature. The developer is continuing to add new content, usually in the form of additional vehicle components and additional planets and moons. I have been enjoying this sim for several years, and still find it enjoyable and engaging. Give it a try.
About the app
SPACEFLIGHT SIMULATOR:
This is a game about building your own rocket from parts and launching it to explore space!
• Use parts to create any rocket you want!
• Completely accurate rocket physics!
• Realistically scaled planets!
• Open universe, if you see something in the distance, you can go there, no limits, no invisible walls!
• Realistic orbital mechanics!
• Reach orbit, land on the Moon or Mars!
• Recreate your favorite SpaceX Apollo and NASA launches!
Current planets and moons:
• Mercury
• Venus ( A planet with a extremely dense and hot atmosphere)
• Earth ( Our home, our pale blue dot :) )
• Moon ( Our celestial neighbour)
• Mars ( The red planet with a thin atmosphere)
• Phobos ( Mars inner moon, with rough terrain and low gravity)
• Deimos ( Mars outer moon, with a extremely low gravity and a smooth surface)
We have a really active discord community!

Ratings and reviews
I love this game. My biggest complaint is that when I have multiple ships it is very easy to lose track of them because of how long it takes to click on the ship and then switch to the ship as well as not being able to freely move the screen around but only zoom in and out which can make it frustrating when trying to locate different objects and parts that you have besides that it is a very good game and the only thing keeping it from being five stars
This game is really good if you want to simulate rocket launches and satellites and rovers. It has most of the planets and even has asteroids. It's fun to deploy rovers and satellites, and your rocket can even blow up if it gets to hot during re-entry of the atmosphere. In my opinion, I think this is one of the best games that I have.
Relatively simple, very open, and fun once you learn how to control and build rockets more efficiently. Without expansions, the build space is a bit limiting but forces people to challenge their design. I think the game could use more detailed planet graphics (or even with a setting to change the quality) and a mark on the map where the space center is. I've noticed it starts to get a little laggy at times, and I'm not sure why; it's not really a demanding game from the looks, which I like.
I really enjoy playing this game! The different challenges get increasingly difficult and teach you different aspects of the game along the way. The game requires careful attention and huge variety in design possibilities. It's very well constructed and seemingly free of any bugs or glitches in my experience. The one gripe I have is that none of the "tutorial videos" seem to work. You click the buttons but nothing happens. I'd love to see this fixed to see the tutorials! Very solid game overall.
Really cool. I like that if you make a mistake you can reset without having to restart the whole mission. Also you can build whatever from the get go without having to buy things and level up. The universe is very big and I like that it has the moon and different planets to go to. Very technical and does require a lot of thought and patience but that makes it fun. Awesome way to occupy your time in my opinion. Graphic aren't the best but the physics make up for it
Spaceflight Simulator is one of the only games on the entire Play Store to accomplish two things: Satisfy the player endlessly and not market all it can while doing so. These are core aspects I see in a game. However, I feel like some of the extension purchases should already have been added to the base game. The base building grid is horribly constricting finding a balance between thrust, weight and fuel is incredibly tedious. It is a grand game, well worth your time, deepite this!
