How to play Little Orbit
Tap Stargaze to make your first observations. Spend observations on instruments (star charts, telescopes, radio dishes, observatory domes and space probes) that keep watching the sky for you. Upgrades double what each kind of instrument gathers.
Little Orbit is about discovery. Ten sights in the night sky are waiting to be found, from the Moon to a distant quasar. Each stays hidden until you find it, then makes everything 10% faster for good. You only get a hint about what to do next.
Your observatory keeps watching while you’re away, for up to 12 hours. When the night is long enough, chart the sky: start fresh tomorrow with constellations that make everything 6% faster each. Your discoveries are never lost.
Little Orbit is free, needs no account and saves your progress in this browser. You can back it up or move it to another device on the Save page. It is an original game made by Littleby, an independent studio.
