This adds to a growing trend of games with no instructions. Developers need to realize that they have two types of customers: those who play tons of phone games, for which the rules may be familiar and obvious, and those fairly new to the field, for which some instructions would be welcome. Can it be that hard to write a few sentences that can be offered or accessed from within the game? ### 2/5 — You’ll watch more ad’s than land panes. *2023-03-20, version 3.7* The game is just pure ads. Can’t play more than a minute or two without getting hit with an ad. Utterly ridiculous and shame because the game is fun. Deleted within minutes of download. ### 4/5 — Needs Option *2023-02-22, version 3.7* Needs option to play without ads ### 2/5 — Fun BUT *2023-02-20, version 3.7* To many ads! ### 2/5 — Ads *2023-02-19, version 3.6* Too many ads ### 3/5 — Fun at first then… *2023-02-16, version 3.6* Game starts out fun but once you max out on your 5 routes for each US/LATAM city and ticket price, nothing happens. The planes just continue their routes and you make money. Nothing else to do after a couple of days. I guess I won the game… not sure. ### 3/5 — Great Game - Ads Too Much *2023-02-09, version 3.3* It was a fun game. Lots of potential. But the ads were way too often. I’d pay to remove them but there is no option to do that. Remove the ads and I’d come back. It’s actually fun enough that I’d pay a couple of bucks or so to enjoy the game. ### 1/5 — 10 seconds play time, 20 seconds of ads *2023-02-04, version 3.2* What the title says. If you want to watch a constant barrage of ads, there’s easier ways to do it besides downloading this app. The game play is terrible because you’re constantly being interrupted. Otherwise, it game is fun. Don’t recommend playing. ### 1/5 — Ads *2023-01-31, version 2.8* Way too many ads, I’d rather pay a fee and do away them instead of constantly being interrupted with them ### 1/5 — Way too many ads to make it enjoyable *2023-01-29, version 2.8* If you like tons of ads this is the game for you. Played for 5 min and already it stopped the game for 3 sets of ads. I’m out. ### 2/5 — Fun but…. *2023-01-26, version 2.8* Enjoyed this game then got hit with the gray screen of death back at the first level. Won’t restart or reload even after shutting down device. Too bad. Update. Stuck in Miami level. Not loading, can’t play. Too bad. ### 4/5 — Game stuck on Miami *2023-01-24, version 2.8* Hi I played through the game and then I went to reopen the app and it’s stuck on the Miami app and won’t let me play the game anymore had to delete and redownload and start over ### 3/5 — Doesn’t Save? *2023-01-18, version 2.7* Enjoy the game, despite the insane amount of ads needed to play successfully. However, game seems to just reset after closing out every time. Is there not a way to save as you play, so you can pick up where you left off? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ad Trap *2023-05-05, version 3.7* Way, way too many ads. You can barely play without seeing 20 ads. ### 1/5 — It a game, just AD player *2023-04-27, version 3.7* It a game, just AD player ### 1/5 — Ads are maddening *2023-03-20, version 3.7* The ads are maddening and way too often. Don’t download. ### 1/5 — In game ads *2023-03-11, version 3.7* So many in game ads. Sooooo many. ### 1/5 — Can’t land! *2023-02-25, version 3.7* Traced a path to an airport. The plane follows the path then just hovers over the airport. Tried lots of different things to get the plane to land. Sometimes they land something not. Just deleted the game cause the controls are just to difficult to get right. I like the strategy to route planes, but I don’t want to struggle with the basic commands. Needs more work to get the UI to work properly. Good luck‼️ Ok, tried again and the game is completely different. It’s just city to city. I’m not sure what this game is anymore. Sorry guys but this is not working for me. You really gotta step back and evaluate what new users see. I’m not getting it‼️ ### 1/5 — Crazy amount of ads *2023-02-24, version 3.7* Crazy amount of ads. A new ad pops up every 90 seconds. Also the prices to open new airports is ridiculous. I literally have to keep the app open for hours to open one airport. ### 1/5 — The Updated Wiped My Data/Progree *2023-02-21, version 3.7* I loved this game until the updated. I’m the previous version, I opened up all airports in the US, expanded to Europe. I’m a huge aviation fan so this game was amazing, until the update… one update and I lost all the progress… Start from zero?! No thank you… deleted this game a min ago… ### 1/5 — Update 2/19/23 *2023-02-20, version 3.7* The new update released today is terrible. Old version was much better. Also, all progress is lost!!! I’d give it zero stars if I could. ### 1/5 — Too many Ads and False Advertisement *2023-02-08, version 3.2* There are too many adverts and the game does not look like the screenshots shown on the App Store. It’s a simple game of connecting airports together (not landing the planes). ### 1/5 — Enjoyable until update *2023-02-08, version 3.2* This was a great game until the most recent update made unplayable ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — So good but 1 problem *2025-11-12, version 3.7* Can you please add offline earnings of more money pop up when out of the game because I can’t get enough money to complete the USA because Virginia cost 1.37 billion but I only had 58 million so can you please add offline earnings in the game and if you added it thank you so much 🩷 ### 5/5 — So good but 1 problem *2025-09-10* When I went in the quests it said these tasks Buy new airplane from hangar Buy new airplane from hangar Buy new airplane from hanger But I already bought all the airplanes so if you fix this then thank you. ### 5/5 — So good but 1 problem *2025-08-31* Instead of topeka in Kansas a city it is Wichita and Topeka is the capital of Kansas so can you fix the name ### 5/5 — So good *2024-07-24, version 3.7* It’s so fun and I love the graphics and I love it 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 ### 5/5 — Good Patch *2023-01-13, version 2.7* The new update adds so much more planes to land in the levels, which is great. ### 5/5 — 5/5 game *2023-01-13, version 2.7* first i love the game so thank you for making it. Can you also add more customization options? ### 5/5 — Enjoyable game… *2022-12-15, version 1.6* I like the graphics 😊 ### 5/5 — great game *2022-12-05, version 1.2* new update is AMAZING thanks you devs ### 5/5 — Good graphics *2022-12-04, version 1.2* graphics looking great for this game actually.
