The award winning PC spaceship simulation game from Subset Games comes to iPad! Includes the free expansion, FTL: Advanced Edition, which adds new ships, enemies, events, weapons, and more!

PC version’s awards include:

• IGN - Game Of the Year Nominee 2012
• PC Gamer - 2012 Best Short-Form Game
• Indie Game Festival 2013 - Excellence in Design
• Indie Game Festival 2013 - Audience Award
• Game Developers Choice Awards 2013 - Best Debut: Subset Games

In FTL you experience the atmosphere of running a spaceship trying to save the galaxy. It's a dangerous mission, with every encounter presenting a unique challenge with multiple solutions. What will you do if a heavy missile barrage shuts down your shields? Reroute all power to the engines in an attempt to escape, power up additional weapons to blow your enemy out of the sky, or take the fight to them with a boarding party? This "spaceship simulation roguelike-like" allows you to take your ship and crew on an adventure through a randomly generated galaxy filled with glory and bitter defeat.

  The fact that this will never be on Android never ceases to amaze me.

    It’s only on iPadOS. I can totally understand why devs wouldn’t bother with the tiny Android Tablet market.

      Apparently they lost money on the iPad port and it put them off an android. Android is roughly equal with apple now on tablets worldwide and was significantly more than ios until very recently.

        Weird, I guess it's just that the iPad market for games is a lot smaller than the iPhone market. I'd buy this for iPhone even with awkward tiny phone controls, but have only ever had Android tablets.

        83% of Android tablets struggle running solitaire.. maybe that’s the reason?

        Ok I joke… but seriously, Australians buy iPads because our android options are severely limited. If the Y900 was sold here I probably wouldn’t have an iPad.

          @EitherWayUp: Yeah, I'm basically an apple hater but there's no real alternative to iPad Pro here. On iPad I don't find the ecosystem restrictions to be too obnoxious either, works with everything I've wanted so far

              @wisc: Software experience ruins it for me (tablet android plus Samsung bloat). But the hardware is nice.

  This game is a lot of fun, runs great on iPad and doesn't suck down too much batter on my M1 Pro. The port is very well done too.
