Absorb, or be absorbed...
Enter the Darwinian world of a galactic mote. Absorb smaller organisms to grow — but beware of larger predators. To move, you must eject matter, shrinking yourself in the process. From this delicate balance emerges a journey through floating playgrounds, competitive petri dishes, deep solar systems, and more.

This game is something special to me. When I discovered it I was going through a lot. But, at night when I was laying sleepless next to her. I would play this and it would calm me enough to sleep. The music is beautiful and the calming gameplay was soothing. Perfect bedtime game. I don't play it anymore. Unfortunately she is no longer with us. When I see this game it just brings too many memories and does the opposite of what it used to do for me. Now when I hear the music, I beg to go back.

Used to play and love thia game a decade ago. Visuals and sound are great. Google account as a must means uninstall. Too bad.
- Sebastian Braun
it's very fun. I really enjoy the orbital mechanics!
- TylerM814 · v2.9.0
0/5. controle are very bad, basically uncontrollably going around and even if you are bigger you can't touch but one color and If a couple very small pea sized orbs hit you then you lose a bunch of mass very quickly. unplayable. don't download 9/7/26

relaxing

It's a classic. Also want to offset the AI luddites
- Micah Gibson
this game SUCKS. all you do is move around a circle. It's the most tedious annoying game I've ever played
- alex sandoval
Crashes on launch.
- Mr Pie 5
boring
- Kirsten Andrews · v2.9.0
A true hidden gem of a game! It strikes the perfect balance between relaxing and challenging, making it a joy to play. Definitely well worth the purchase. Hopefully, we’ll get a Part 2 someday!
- Eduardo Perez · v2.9.0
love it
- Geo Ves · v2.9.0
Does not work at all on my z Fold8. Not on the cover or internal screen. This game would be 5 stars otherwise, I loved it on my S24 Ultra.
- Brian Herro · v2.9.0
cool fun classic
- Albert Sobral · v2.9.0
Beautiful. looks amazing, sounds amazing, the physics is great, it's utterly mesmerising. It's like rocket science by intuition, no maths required. If I told you in the orbits level "to increase your periapsis distance, increase forward velocity at apoapsis", that probably won't mean much to you but hey, you'll work it out. Now think - that's how they get to the moon.
- Hamish Harron · v2.9.0
One of the first games I played on Android and I still love it.
- Andrew Watts · v2.9.0
my nostalgic self decided to download this gem again and pretend to be a twenty year old
- Yeming Huang
The game was fun, but now it keeps crashing when I try to open it. Cleared cache, updated the app, still nothing.
- Justin Esau · v2.9.0
Possibly the best mobile game of all time. This was a standout gem from the old iOS days, and it has aged like a fine wine after nearly 17 years (I feel old). Perfect atmosphere, outstanding presentation, and endlessly relaxing. Played on a tablet w/ headphones, the immersion is unbeatable and makes for a very pleasant & deeply meditative experience. Truly a timeless masterpiece, one for the mobile-gaming history books. 10/10
- O C · v2.9.0
No idea what to do at the third or fourth tutorial. There is no difference from the antimatter to the matter that I could figure out. So I just died continuously.
- Don Boothby
loved it since I first played it almost 20 years ago on iPhone. just found it again on the play store. worth every penny. very relaxing.
- Joey Byars · v2.9.0
classic
- Grox Studios
the best. sound design, graphics, gameplay
- Tikus Hijo · v2.9.0
I hate this game. I want my money back. Stupid, frustrating "gameplay".
- Jennifer G · v2.9.0
calming and frustrating
- Richard Hedelius · v2.9.0
pretty graphics
- Dionist
Beautiful game with beautiful mechanics! The entire thing revolves around Newton's Third Law of Motion: Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, which I think was executed in a very nice way.
- Cole Bayless · v2.9.0
loved it on previous phones, but it is crashing on startup on my new pixel 10
- Paul Tomlin · v2.9.0
fun, not frustrating and kinda relaxing
- Amadeus Martinez · v2.8.0
played it as a kid on PC. now playing as an adult on the tablet. love it.
- Arnold Thomas · v2.9.0
I love this game, I completed it 5 times at least. However it's 15 years old and it'd be nice to have more new maps added instead of just getting random bug fixes and patches. I'd be happy to pay extra for an extension.
- András Bobo Fügedi · v2.9.0
how are they turning blue/red
- Saba Tariq · v2.8.3
very nice but gets boring real quick
- Ondrej “pIXo” Uhričík · v2.9.0
Screw AI. I don't want AI in games I play. I don't support AI, and I won't support it.
- Jason C · v2.8.3
Why is Google Play Games Sidekick AI added to this game? I used to like this game but after integration of AI like this for me personally is not good and it will probably become worse if the developer keeps adding more stuff like this.
- A Google user · v2.9.0
Fun, but infuriating. I spent an hour playing and kept feeling like something was off sometimes. It took me a while to figure it out. It's inertia. When you gain mass you maintain your velocity, which would be fine, except that if you have to cancel out that velocity you have to spend way more mass than you spent to gain it. It feels unresponsive unless you eject enough mass that it's dangerous.
- David Arnott · v2.9.0
Nothing to say, title says it all, tho sad to finish the game for like the 100 time, would love to see more levels
- A Google user · v2.9.0
relaxing 😌

In 2026, this still remains one of my favorite Android games.

Chill. Amazing soundtrack.
- Eric Puckett · v2.8.3
love this game.
- James Hobbs · v2.8.3
I played Osmos many years ago and have been delighted to rediscover it recently. Just beautiful, the right difficulty, and has that "one more go" effect that keeps me at it for far too long! Awesome!
- Karl Rodgers · v2.8.3
Great idea. Fascinating physics programming
- zlyuk · v2.8.3
Relaxing and beautiful
- Ben Kemp · v2.8.3
Pretty and challenging. Newtonian physics, so if you've played space games like that, this will feel familiar. Managed to unlock arcade mode; looking forward to more.
- R · v2.8.3
An absolute genius game! It's a bit like Agario but a bit more complex I like the simple yet complex game dynamics, which makes it quite a unique game Overall I have had a lot of fun playing it The only little thing that could be a problem is that it is a bit expensive for a mobile game as it is costing near £5 But in my opinion it is worth the £5 so it's not an issue!
- Hishaam Shamaun · v2.8.3
the most stressful game I have ever played. couldn't make it past level 7
- James Stilwell
Pure genius! A fantastic game which starts out easy and gets progressively harder as each new mechanic is introduced. So addictive and rewarding. The antithesis of most modern mobile games.
- Anthony Paynter · v2.8.3
holy heck, gameplay is so slow. and it punishes trying to speed things up. tap once, wait 20 seconds, tap a few more times. and literally each tap is punished. I quit at a large grid of things bigger than you, where they made it clear to me you had to basically play operation. such a chore.
- kyle sexton · v2.8.3
Absolutely the best game ever.
- Rohan · v2.8.3
worth it!
- Gemma Jenkins · v2.8.3
Great game, incredibly fun with challenging levels and cool ideas. Beautiful, surreal, music and visuals.
- Matt F · v2.8.3
fun but ai cheats
- Eugene Sherbin · v2.8.3
great game but the mobile controls are terrible...
- João Monteiro · v2.8.3
Tells me to purchase the game even though I have play pass.

- Parker Dille · v2.8.3
Hidden gem!
- Steve M · v2.8.3
I bought the full game a month ago. now when I try to launch it tells me to purchase again. Google will not refund. DO NOT BUY.
- Lord Cancer · v2.8.3
Had fun with Odyssey mode. I expected Arcade mode to have more of an endless style rather than basically just an extended Odyssey mode. Maybe if you beat all difficulties something like that unlocks but I haven't gotten there yet.
- Justin · v2.8.3
cool game
- Johnny Marasa · v2.8.3
Many years ago I played this game on iPhone 4 and enjoyed it thoroughly. For its physics and its mesmerizing aesthetics. It was enjoyable to return to it perhaps 15 years later to discover that it is still an interesting mix between meditation, physics, biology, and musical periodicity. Odyssey now complete.
- x5.dbqpdb.3o · v2.6.2
The visuals in Osmos have a unique and special style. Everything about the gameplay design is perfect. It is a very fine-tuned type of experience in the world of games. If you intend to purchase Osmos for kids there is a chance that they might find it too slow (it is a slow-paced action/adventure game but not too slow). The music appears to be standalone electronic songs that were not created with the intention of being used in Osmos but the developers have somehow managed to choose music that does not feel out of place when compared to music that was composed specifically for a game. Very impressive ✅.
- Noah1000 · v2.6.2
One of the oldest games I own, still phenomenal and still being updated
- Steamfire · v2.6.2
No sound or music?
- GR try jjbgghnj · v2.6.1
初中玩过的游戏 这两天想起来了 下来补票
- bonnie and marcy · v2.6.1
Fun and relaxing, with a bit of challenge. Game sounds and looks amazing. Great ambient music
- stevezs911 · v2.6.1
Crashes on iPad Pro with the latest OS
- 11thzone · v2.6.1
It’s not even close. Could there be more levels because you don’t want it to end? Yes. Would I pay $20 for an Osmos 2? Yes. Do I love this game. Yes.
- Erik Stone · v2.6.0
Beautifully thought out.
- all4theoutdoors · v2.6.0
This game pisses me off to an unreasonable extent, I play a ton of puzzle games and fly through them but this one has them levels i get stuck and have to retry forty times and take a break and then retry another seventy times until i finally get it and idek what exactly i did differently to win it that time. Phenomenal experience, definitely worth the four dollars
- Zangetsu747 · v2.6.0
It’s engaging and relaxing with space orbs, very cool, well done 5 stars!
- Vigilante909 · v2.5.0
Game just isn’t fun
- copjonlang · v2.5.0
Pros: Absolutely no in-app purchases Challenging No random chance Intuitive controls Cons: This game starts easy but gets haaaard…
- Magic Kingdom Zeal · v2.5.0
Beautiful graphics and sound, wonderful gameplay. Many have tried to copy it and none have come close. The high water mark for mobile games.
- TehSauce200 · v2.5.0
I wanted to like it but it just didn’t work for me.
- dstallion · v2.4.4
Requires a great deal of patience, but if you can get that down tightened, then you will absolutely love this game. I don’t even wanna call it a game. I want to call it a skill level, mine blowing adventure.
- MrRedDog28 · v2.4.4
I love this game so Much!It isn’t to hard but hard enough for it to be 🤩!
- Rui’s husband · v2.4.4
incredible game, i loved it, i used to play it since 10 years, i’m playing it in 2023 right now everything is amazing about this game, music an be better, and more levels should be there, please give us Osmos 2
- nawid ziaey · v2.4.4
I am still playing this game in 2022, I only paid $.99, I turn up the speed to fastest play I can play it,much more difficult, I wish they would develop osmos 2 or the next level, visualing stunning. Sometimes it feels like the game is alive, I even feel sorry for them when I have to take them out. I let them live as long as I can…Please make a new one I’ll be your first to play it, even beta test. Don’t charge a subscription service, I boycott those games. People would be flocking to it!
- 0xbcad · v2.4.4
When’s the next one coming out?
- Heyguysimisaac · v2.4.4
Visually stunning with an ethereal audio experience that makes the game other worldly.
- IdaReggaeMon · v2.4.4
I could play the game or listen to the audio track and fall asleep. I fine the gameplay meditative and it gets me out of my own mind.
- Tranceplant · v2.4.4
I’ve been playing this for over a decade now and it’s by far my favorite game. It’s become part of my meditation regimen. There’s something organic and natural about absorbing larger objects in a cosmic way. The gameplay and music is soothing.
- JT_eee · v2.4.4
Epic game underrated needs more people for online
- biomining · v2.4.4
I really am a big fan of this game but it can be challenging to control but on the other hand it is just awesome.
- skkxdi · v2.4.4
Nice to find a quality game that doesn’t nickel dime you. Just flat price and have fun.
- subracing79 · v2.4.4
I have on this game for over eight years and I have it on every one of my devices it’s the perfect way to keep your mind up with your stress low. I don’t normally write reviews but up is a must have for any business person.
- Jmelly1013 · v2.4.4
Wish I could get my money back.
- bobcatbobcat · v2.4.4
this would be 5 stars except that they have done nothing to take advantage of iphone13 pro display…it looks terrible on my phone. with this game concept there’s such an opportunity to take advantage of a beautiful screen and really wow with the orb graphics, but as it is now, it’s blurry and underwhelming. this game is all about the ambiance, it’s got the sound part down, now it needs visuals to match. disappointing…fix it.
- Bhermes123 · v2.4.4
Osmos has been out for a while, and is just as fun as the first day! Doesn’t really need any updates.
- Brokethumb · v2.4.4
We need more online players. Nobody is online.
