In Space Ace you play the heroic Ace who must stop the evil Commander Borf from taking over the Earth! Borf plans to reduce all of humankind to infants and take over the planet. Only two people have the courage and strength to stop Borf and save Earth: the beautiful Kimberly and the heroic Ace. But as they approach Borf’s stronghold, Ace is hit by the Infanto Ray, changing him into a child, and Kimberly is kidnapped by the evil madman. Armed with only a laser gun, Ace must find and destroy the Infanto Ray, rescue Kimberly and save the Earth.

The fate of Earth is in your hands!

This release of Don Bluth’s legendary animated arcade game features video transferred directly from the stunning high definition master, delivering the sharpest images and most vibrant colors ever – far better than the original laserdisc release.

Simply press on the direction pad to guide Ace in the right direction or fire your laser gun and blast those aliens away.

Don Bluth and his production teams are the creative genius behind such beloved classics as The Secret of NIMH, An American Tail and Anastasia to name but a few.

We hope you enjoy Space Ace!

Awesome game from an ex imagineer at Disney Don Bluth — so cool Disney style all over it — dropped a lot of quarters on the real one back in the day

NO SOUND
     
by NorthWinterhold · December 25, 2018

The game is identical to the original laser disc game. However, there is NO SOUND to the game. No options for sound/music like all others games on App Store. Also, the control arrows make it difficult to play. If you enjoy games with no sound, this one is for you. I WOULD NOT have bought it for $4.99 if I knew there was no sound available on this game. So I give it “1” star because of that.

Finally updated!!! BUT

I loved this game when it originally came out and beat both it and Dragon's Lair. I cant believe this is an iPhone app, but very glad it is!!! It has become my favorite game all over again.My only minor complaint is that when playing the Captain level or above the movement is wrong, the screen will blink right and it only accepts it if you move left , the correct movement is not corresponding to the opposite screens. Hopefully there will be a fix for this in the near future , otherwise its flawless!! Thank you Don Bluth! Update 5/13/15 As stated by others for sometime now, we are still having issues with these games. The final scene against Borf is completely bugged and unplayable. From what I understand, Dragons Lair has the exact same problem. I don't think the company checks these reviews because this has been ongoing for sometime. I would love to play these again but in its current state, that is simply not possible. Update 7/17/15 For the love of Ace, somebody, anybody from this company, please fix this game.....still waiting... It should not take months to get this app working properly again.

Love it and hate it
