Ad Free

I paid the 5.99 for the ad free and yet I continue to receive them.

1,942 Commercials

So many very long commercials itโ€™s virtually unplayable. Iโ€™d estimate 90% of my time on this app was watching commercials rather than actually playing the game. Itโ€™s just not worth it.

Meh

So freakin easy itโ€™s boring, uninstalled after 2 minutes

Better than original, but

This game is stealing my gems I swear, I used to have around 200 from grinding, and now I only have 27 after replaying

Donโ€™t play it

I payed ยฃ5 for this game so Iโ€™m not bombarded by adverts literally every minute, which is what will happen.
Secondly this game is almost as old as I am โ€ancientโ€, and as much as I love this game you need extremely DEEP pockets to play it , there seems to be no end in the amount of upgrades each individual plane you own , for example I own one plane and have spent ยฃ200 on upgrades and the game will not even let me pass 50% of the missions due to the weakness of the plane , every aspect of this game is real money based only, if you are extremely P2P / P2W then this is for you, the game I would recommend highly, but the business model is terrible , money money โ€ฆ rating 1 star when it should be 5.
