Description: Rocket Explorer is a rocket viewing experience, where you can view the rockets of the world with your own eyes. Also in Virtual Reality! Launch rockets, compare them side by side, and take them apart.
Review: ‘Rocket Explorer’ is supposed to be an educational rocket simulation in which you get to learn a little bit about 40+ rockets and you can even watch them all launch. Well…that is what it thinks it is doing anyway. In reality, this app is broken AF and while you can do a lot of things with it most of it is broken with the rockets becoming invisible and besides all the info is nothing more than Wiki text. But even presuming that this issue is fixed you are still paying £10.29 for next to nothing! Maybe if this app was fixed and cost less I could see it being used in an educational setting, but not until then. For now, I will be asking for a refund and suggests no one, not even us space fans give this a go until it gets fixed.
