Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Game will not load on iPhone. Stay away.
We were so looking forward to this game, but we don't like the two thumbs control. We're too uncoordinated. We would have much preferred tilt control. Sorry, sure wanted to like it. Part 2: You did it Stefan! Tilt. And now we can do it. Thanks.
We don't understand why this game doesn't give us the option of using the amazing technology inherent in the iPad we.e. The accelerometer. The game is probably awesome but, we'll never know because we're not coordinated enough for the thumb controls. Being able to adjust the sensitivity of the controls would also have helped. We suggest the Devs check out Sky Gamblers: Air Supremacy to get a sense of how the controls can be improved. Glad we're only out 2 bucks.
One of the few helicopter Games available at the App Store.
This game is a blast. The controls are easy to figure out, the graphics are slick and the gameplay is compelling. We had an issue getting the game to load because of an iOS bug and the developer got back to us immediately and had the issue fixed in minutes. And no pesky IAP.
The arcadey feel and slick presentation only scratch the surface of this game. The virtual thumb stick setup is one of the best we've experienced on mobile, and the intensity and skill required to pass the missions really gives a sense of accomplishment (something rare on iOS). We don't possibly see how this game could play with tilt controls, so…..yeah, the whiner complaining about it and giving it a 1 star is completely unjustified and completely uncalled for. This is a highly recommended game and worth every penny. Slap to that one star rating.
This is probably one of the best helicopter games EVER! Hats off to the creator(s) that made this game! It is so fun! We hope in the future the makers make more great games.
A great arcade experience, gets your blood flowing like Afterburner of old. Worth every penny. Minor request, the ability to invert controls.
We completed this game in about one hour of play. Why is it five bucks. Game play is good though.
Glitchiest game we've ever purchased. Doesn't let us complete missions even when we've accomplished everything. Even the sound glitches and plays in slow-mo. Gameplay is fine, but repetitive.
Such a great looking game! Such a great feeling game! IMPOSSIBLE TO BEAT! Frustrating and sadly have deleted.
