Good game bad bug

The program crashes when a high score is achieved and puts you in a Groundhog Day scenario where you repeat your last move and it crashes and shuts down. When you restart and press continue current game it stats with your last move and crashes again. Still cannot get it to work.

A good surprise!

I didnt know this game and it was a big surprise! A good strategic games, different from others, and I saw there is a newest one. Ill get soon!

Beer and Pretzels, WW 1 Style

What not to expect: any emphasis on historical accuracy. Makes Flyboys look like a documentary. What to expect: addictive polished makes-sense gameplay. Favorite aspect: 20 flyable aircraft after full purchase and their interaction with individual pilot development. Most annoying: Enemy squadrons ALWAYS have more kills than you even possibly face.

iPod Touch Compatibility

This app shows up on the iPod Touch version of the App Store. I had first bought this App when I had an iPad. I was missing playing it until I notice it appear on the iPod Touch version of the App Store. I decided to download it to my iPod only to find that it was incompatible. Please rectify. Its a great game.

Abandoned game?

Loved this game. Bought the ad ons and was thrilled with the update... TWO YEARS AGO!! Is the game dead in the water?

Good game but it has a few problems

This game is good but it does have a few problems. -The game is a little difficult to get used to. -You do have to pay money (nothing dreadful, its only 99 cents for the British campaign and is totally worth it). -You also have to pay to get your pilots back if they get shot down over enemy lines and to repair damaged aircraft. -Also, not much control over the levels you play with (which is realistic but not as fun.) -Multiplayer is okay but it takes a really long time to find another player. This game is really fun if you like Crimson Steam Pirates or other strategy games. I really enjoyed this game. Play is fun, story is good and the aircraft are great. Also, you dont need to spend any money apart from the 99 cents at the beginning. You get your pilots back at the end of that campaign.

Money grab with no replay value

Title says it all. Typical pay-to-play game with Sids name on it...meh.

Pretty good if you dont make very obvious bad decisions

Dont listen to the people complaining about a difficulty spike, there isnt one, much less on rookie. I just played through four campaigns with only the starter plane and only died to a triplane with heavy firepower. You might get shot down a few times in rookie, sure, but if your entire squadron is getting shot down on rookie, something. Is. Seriously. Wrong with your gameplay strategy. Either 1: instead of thinking ahead about what the enemy might do and denying him the chance to get behind you, you for what ever reason, turn and let him get behind you, thinking it will be okay because its on rookie. Or number 2: you for some reason thought it would be better to get a bunch of other moves instead of getting an Immelman or some other kind of 180 degree evasive maneuver. Or finally number 3: You just need more practice, because you might not yet understand the way the physics and grid work.

Ok, but...

Not worth the full campaign pack price. If you really want to get the game and try it out just buy the $0.99 British pack. I made the mistake of buying the full blown pack thinking it would include ALL nationalities. It did not. Also, once you get past easy level you really need to buy "improvements" and "aces" to finish the game. At this point it is NOT worth the price of admission.

Frustrating Controls

I just lost a battle because the game kept triggering different moves then the ones I was pressing. Im on a iPhone 6 plus so this is just not acceptable. Sometimes the game triggers the move on the first touch and misreads the intent. This equals to frustration in a otherwise fun game.

Has potential... I like it!

If youre a product of the 80s RPG and strategy board game generation, you might remember a board game called Blue Max, or a card based game, Wings of War. If you do, than this should be somewhat familiar and fun. I like this game a lot. I would LOVE it if there were a few tweaks/changes: -Ad hoc multiplayer...none of that pass the iPad BS! -Option for larger maps with increased difficulty. -Option to tailor your squadron (images and skills), versus a semi-random lot of four chosen for you. -More planes/more unique flying charactoristics. -More mission variation, maybe some naval missions. -More map variation. -Some additional ground interaction in addition to convoys or trains. Maybe providing air support for an infantry advance, and the like. Overall a terrific game. I just hope it continues to get some development to keep it fresh.

Why?

If youre going to make the game cost money with four campaigns, just make it cost money normally instead. I really hate having to buy the actual game inside the game, especially how expensive they are. If you made them each a dollar, I would get it.

Good but I am having a problem...

The games fun and all but I keep getting a crash on the first Zeppelin mission. I click the "check mark" but it just crashes. Please do fix I want to finish the game.

Crashes constantly

Great little game until about a week ago when it started crashing on mission completion. Tried deleting and reinstalling but same error.

Crashes Everytime

I loved this game till it started crashing. Its unplayable!!!

Update

Love this game but one thing wrong is that this game is outdated. Last updated in 2013. Thats 2 years ago.
