### 3/5 — It’s Good not Great

*2026-07-05, version 1.6415*

Been playing many games. Several times a plane will get stuck, but even with their unstuck option, the system doesn’t always detect the airplane is stuck, so nothing to so but crash, very frustrating. The game should check if something has moved in a timely matter and check also have a hold down option for player to have system check it and prompt a check. Good game but when this happens it really frustrating.

### 1/5 — Recent update has ruined the game.

*2025-08-22, version 1.6406*

Have played AM3D almost daily now for at least 8 years. It was my go to game when I wanted to lose 30 mins. Just got my iPad back having been bricked by the latest iPad os update (no I don’t want to buy a new £1k iPad thanks Apple - my local repair shop can fix it for £20!) and have discovered that the game has been updated. To make it worse. To make it unplayable. Why?!

Please give us the opportunity to roll-back, with the adjustable tower view so that you can see all of the airport and gauge how far apart the planes are! You can’t do that from ground level! Did anyone test this?!Agahagahagahaagahahaga! If it ain’t broke! Thanks in anticipation!

### 1/5 — Sad development

*2025-07-22*

Where is the Seattle Update

### 4/5 — Salt Lake City would be nice.

*2024-05-30, version 1.605*

Pls

### 3/5 — Multiplayer  65*PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*2019-02-02, version 1.602*

Add multiplayer because controllers can work together and that would be so cool!

### 4/5 — Great game!

*2018-12-11, version 1.602*

Occasionally crashes randomly when playing on 12.0.1. When traffic rate is at 10 it’s inconsistent sometimes on how many planes come. Some games you get what you would expect at a 10 rate, sometimes planes arrive less frequently and it feels like the rate is 6 but it says 10. This is when playing the time challenges or move 100.

### 5/5 — Love this game.

*2018-02-13*

Best to be played on an iPad. I find it a bit small on my iPhone 8 screen. I’m addicted to this game although I mostly play the PC version.

### 2/5 — Great but one giant problem

*2017-11-02, version 1.402*

Love the game, best one yet if a major flaw is fixed. Arrivals keep randomly changing to different runways after I've specifically assigned one. A given plane changes its own mind 3-6 times just getting around the pattern! As soon as I fix a couple, it dominoes others - ridiculous! Penalizing us for having a plan is contrary to the spirit of the game. Also, aircraft in some directions can be told go-around way sooner than other arrival directions, at least after you juggle their runway assignment on purpose - ?? Real life ATC can kick out non-compliant planes in any direction.

### 4/5 — Almost a 5

*2017-10-16, version 1.402*

I’d love to give this game a 5 star but it’s missing a few things:
1. Need more time of day variation (Night time) 
2. Weather other than just sunny or rain(Fog, Snow etc)
3. A couple more aircraft selections would be cool.
4. More airports and different runway configurations. 

Asking a lot with the last one but I feel the others aren’t too much to want?! Still a good game to play and kill time.

### 5/5 — New Boston Airport

*2017-07-28, version 1.402*

Love the new Boston airport!!  The most challenging of them all.   Wish there were more than 2 runway configurations since there are so many unavailable runways to use.  ✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️
