“Game has a pretty fun coordination set. hen you first start out it can be a bit tricky to keep your crew in the right spots, and having enough ammo to keep up with the onslaught of planes. It can get a bit repetitive…”
“Bought this game on release back in 2017 and completed the campaign a few times over the years. Picked it up again a few days ago and the only things that I could say that would improve the game is some kind of workshop…”

“Looks cute but it can turn to hell really quick. You'll soon be sending your crew running around to fix this and that, and you'll see them burned or blown to bits. Very fun if you like to handle tense situations.”

“There is too much micromanagement needed. You have to tag every enemy plane for the gunners to shoot at it. You have to tag navigation points for the pilot to know where to go over and over again. It would be okay if I…”

“It's just not fun to me. The crew meanders so slowly around the bomber that it's miserable for me to play. Not even worth playing for the card drops.”

“Not only did the devs abandon this game once they made their money, they made it so you can only enjoy it if you play exactly how they say. It can be fun at first but just wait till you miss a small boat 400 times…”

“It is a very exciting WWII sim of controlling a bomber plane full of down syndrome soldiers who are slow as hell, cant do anything on their own, and aim like storm troopers... shooting knives... out of a bow. When you start doing missions and leveling your bomber and your crew.…”
