Nice game runs well on lenovo tablet with 1GB ram. Mission 14 needs improving ,tracers and bullets have separate points of impact, reticle not of much use, wingman need to be more effective and not die as easily. Failed due to leaving area after destroying planes. In game feedback says there's no internet connection. A little ironic don't you think?

Nice game, I love it, doesn't milk you for money, just reasonable prices for war bonds if you're in a hurry. Ground detailing needs improving to give better height perception. Some reviewers complain about lack of throttle, but WW1 rotary engines didn't have one. They used a kill switch to control speed. Similar (though not quite right) function in the game. Nice aircraft modelling, your plane steers visibly rather than looking like you're holding it out on a stick as some games do. A game you can play entirely for free from start to finish, but a few coins thrown at it says thanks. I completed the game, don't listen to the whiners.

Initially I enjoyed this game, it was fun and it was winnable. However, once you get to the critical 12th Mission they make it impossible for you to win since they shoot you down as soon as you get halfway through it. Because this is an important mission to get through I'm finding it very frustrating and I'm going to have to down rate this game. It seems like it's incredibly rigged, and I'm not sure that it's worth playing anymore.

Been glitching of late. Enemy AI seems to always target you rather than other aircraft AI allies sometimes seem distracted. Be nice if you could fly outside of preset areas

Fantastic game, keep playing it until I've finished the final mission and then start again from the beginning. Wish I could win more than 10 war bonds though, would like to upgrade my plane more.

Great game really fun and realistic. My only problem is I've bought one of the crosshair configuration and it has the tick next to it but when I try and click on it it tells me I still need to buy it.But if this is fixed I will definitely rated 5 sta

I'm only giving this a negative review simply based on the controls. If you decide to up date the game, Please add an on screen controller. Games are much easier played with a controller rather than the accelerometer.

Nice game, Good Graphic dev! Could you please add a world war 2 stories and WW2 Aircraft?? Cause this game will more fun if you add it! Keep up the good work

I'm conflicted on this game. On one hand, it has a nice, engaging, and genuine-feeling storyline. Plus, it's Canadian! On the other, it is very hard, and, as I suppose is to be expected from a game made by a museum, has some big problems with the game itself. For example, due to stars being awarded only by meeting certain time, accuracy, and health related goals, it's possible and likely to complete a hard level with no stars. A solid 3/5.

I have no idea about gameplay as it won't load, the tutorial runs at about 3 frames a second. Far too slow for any kind of gameplay. And I have extremely fast internet.

After trying about 10 flight Sims finally found one I like. Fairly difficult missions. Ads are minimal. Like being able to redo missions to try to do them better. Very satisfied.

The interface environment is nicely set in period style, I played this on an 8 inch tablet and the resolution was much lower than I would have expected. This was also the case with the in-game graphics. Great effort put into the backstory of the game. Gameplay is simple with no throttle control allowing focus to be put on directional control, very arcade in style and does feel clunky at times with simplified physics. An average user wouldn’t have a problem quickly getting to grips with it though, control inversion is available. The missions are short but encompass an interesting award scheme which helps replayability. Levels aren’t too long making this an easy title for ‘pick up and play’. Gameplay is varied including dog fights and ground attack. Microtransactions are available and adverts are present. I didn’t see my first ad until 8 missions in, it wasn’t intrusive and was skippable in around 5 seconds. Microtransactions aren’t required I felt to experience positive progress in the game; I did spend £3 as a ‘thank you’ to the developers and the purchase did go further than I was expecting.

The only gripe I have is with the lack of a throttle slider. Other than that, this is a very fun, very challenging WWI flight sim!

Loving it. Immersive narrative. Fun gameplay. Exactly what I was looking for in a WWI combat flight sim. Graphics seem dated at first, but a non issue due to good gameplay and story. Great app.

I got this game about a year ago and could not get past mission 14 no matter what I did . I tried a couple times to contact the developer of the game never getting a reply so I uninstalled the game . I recently installed it again and now it's a hell of game again and so far I think you guys have a winner . Thanks for fixing the issues it had in the past . Hell of a job fellas , keep up the good work ..
