** Apple Design Award winner and iPad Game of the Year! **
Enter the Darwinian world of a galactic mote. To survive, absorb smaller organisms and grow—but beware of larger predators. Osmos features unique physics-based play, stellar graphics, and a hypnotic ambient soundtrack. Absorb or be absorbed!

“The ultimate ambient experience” — Gizmodo
“Beyond doubt, a work of genius" — GameAndPlayer.net

THE CRUX:
you must grow by absorbing smaller motes, but to propel yourself you must eject matter behind you, causing you to shrink. From this delicate balance, Osmos leads the player through floating playgrounds, competitive petri dishes, deep solar systems, and more.

“Named as iPad Game of the Year for a reason, Osmos is a fantastic game. A combination of physics, survival and classic eat em up” — WeDoCode
“Whether youre a child at heart who likes mucking about with single-cell organisms, or a strategist with a physics degree, this game will appeal to everyone.” — App Store review

Pros and cons of Osmos app for iPhone and iPad

Osmos app good for

I love it. A kind of enhanced Agar.io with physicals law. Very interesting !

Great soundtrack, beautiful graphics! But youll need loads of patience to go on thru the game.. Its challenging! *****

Beautifulllllll game , graphics are great and the game is very cool. One of the best game in the app.

Cant stop playing. Said it gets too difficult too soon. But still addictive.

As an astrophysicist I was very happy with this game. Now I reached precision 7/8 and I absorbed the three blue planets, but the level does not end. Is " absorb the targets " supposed to mean something else!?

...game Ive ever found on the iPhone. The perfect mix of action, music, science and strategy. I wish there were more games like this.

Some bad moments

Bought this game thinking It was for my iPad and ended up with the iPhone version. Not happy

Fantastic game overall! We have this super interesting premise of playing as a lifeform who seeks to gain dominance over its competitors by systematically absorbing all lifeforms smaller than it. But the trick is that it can only accelerate by expelling mass, thus reducing its size. So the gameplay becomes a mix of patience, clever strategy, and the ever present luck. Main side challenges keep the game constantly entertaining as you progress through the levels. Apart from the ordinary "motes", you encounter other types of mote lifeforms such as biophobes, repulsors, attractors, and antimatter motes! Each of these presents a unique challenge to the level it inhabits. I must say kudos to the people responsible for such an interesting app game!

In the beginning levels it was fun, but then it got too hard and stopped being fun in the later levels. I havent been able to play against someone else yet. Its not horrible.

Love this game so much, the graphics are beautiful and its extremely fun to play. I like games that challenge the mind and deal with physics and hand-eye coordination. The only problem I have is that I get done playing the single player levels in about an hour. Would really love a sequel or for new levels to get added on a frequent basis.

amazing. fantastic game! no more afternoons outside in the sun drinking lemonade and watching the clouds go by.

You can play it as a mindless set of taps, or you can see it as a metaphor for life, business and the rules of the world around us. If this game was $99 it would still be under-valued! On top of all that it has perfect polish and amazing mechanics. The developers did so well here I imagine they sealed their own fate, there is no way they or anyone can do better!
