Leave a Review 1942 Classic Arcade
Fun update but too buggy
I like the update, but like other reviewers have pointed out, some enemies get stuck halfway off screen, so the level never ends.
I don’t plan on playing this until the bugs are fixed.
Also, how did the developers not catch such obvious errors??ElTigre914
Rip Off...update wipes out progress
Let’s begin by explaining that the latest update wipes out most of what you spent money and time on, basically taking your money and providing no return. Second is the many glitches of the update which include how the game gets stuck with an enemy that you can’t kill cause it’s too off screen and the level won’t end, or you just fly with no enemies and level never ends. This happens on Levels 12, 17, 22, 23, 26, 29, and 40. It may occur on later levels but that’s as far as I have gotten so far.
The developers need to give back our hard earned money or fix the features lost by the update, which include my weapons lasting 30 seconds, the weapons effectiveness back to same power, the dozens of magnets, double stars, power ups, and emps (lightning strike) that I’ve earned and/or paid for and so on.
Finally, provide help pages to explain the ways to earn features, planes, what other new things you’ve done, and so on. I almost think it is not included so they can take your money and not give you what is expected. I don’t mind the ads as long as the rewards actually work as advertised following watching the video. Right now 1 out of 3/4 don’t pay off.
A game with nostalgic potential but reverse of update or serious attention to issues need to be executed.Show lessblueidboy74
Needs a bug fix ASAP
Updated today but so many levels where the game just gets stuck in a loop and no further enemy’s arrive and plane just flys and level doesn’t end. Some levels where the enemy gets stuck and only half plane comes on screen. Again, loops and you can’t destroy.. Tried and wasted time trying to figure out. Needs sortingShow lessBeatroot13
Problem
I can only get half way through level twelve and then all stops. No enemies progress and the level does not progress. You just keep flying to open skies. It ran for 10 minutes before I stopped it.Kendallmax
Absolutely Terrible Update - Disappointing
The new update is awful. If I knew the new update was going ruin the game I never would have updated it. The old layout was fun with a true arcade feel to it. Before the new update, It was easy to navigate between levels and earn coins and jewels. Now, it seems you have to use medals just to play and the bosses are not loading at the end of a level. Also, it is too busy and seems you have to pay for everything. After playing this game for almost a year, I’ll be deleting it now. A word of advise for the developer(s): if it’s not broken, don’t fix it. Highly Disappointing.Show lessPepper_1
I understand ads for the free version, but…
… often now it doesn’t recognise that I’ve played the ad (for bonus spins, double stars, continue mission etc), requiring me to play two or more - I just did five and it still didn’t acknowledge!
As if there weren’t enough ads in the first place.
Aside from that, the game is ok, but am concerned after seeing some reviews that this app is still not ad-free after paying.
UPDATE: ads seem to be getting even more frequent, so I have since paid to remove ads, and as others have noted, ADS ARE STILL APPEARING!!!
Rating changed from 2 to 1 star for either dishonest practice or shoddy app build.
UPDATE (9-Aug-19):
After the major app update, ads finally appear to be gone (THANK YOU) aside from the optional ads you can play to collect bonuses which is ok, but now…
• Some levels are unplayable - enemies stop appearing after a while and then the background keeps scrolling but nothing else happens. Some levels don’t even have any enemy planes.
• Sometimes the larger planes that appear from the side stay at the side, like they’re stuck. Easy to shoot, but no challenge and no fun.
• The background does not cover the full width of the screen - I suspect the previous issue may be related.
Can’t really make much progress now. The frustrations continue.Show lessqix666
TERRIBLE: Complete Redesign
I don’t know why you’ve done what you’ve done but you’re breaking my heart with this update. I wish you had focused on the current glitches and kept this game as classic as possible. This is now a COMPLETELY different game and not what I originally signed up for. For that, I’m now deleting your game.
Be aware newcomers: there will be a lot of disruptive ads throughout the game, not just here and there, but ALL the time rendering the flow almost unplayable. Also, don’t pay for any upgrades, it’s not worth it and a waste of your money.
Player be aware.Show lessLuAggz84
Awesome game ruined by ad’s
Great gameplay, but ruined as you spend more time watching ad’s than actually playing. If you die during a level there’s an option to watch a 30s ad to continue, which after just ends the game... plus simply selecting the home screen to go back to the main menu triggers another 30s ad.

Homage to the original
Probably the best thing about bringing it to mobile is that it follows your finger, totally blows the original out of the water in that senseJaise man fhdjxjcj
Takes me back
Ok, when reviewing this keep mind what it is, a blast from your past. It takes me back to many a night pounding on the console game in my local pub, trying to steal high score from my arch nemesis. So the graphics are dated and it lacks the latest gee wiz features, but it’s a hoot to play and it brings back fond memories of golf times with olfactory friends.Show lessACE from Niagara
