There are people standing on hilltops, moving in and out of the tree line etc. The convoy always gets attacked before adjusting fire impacts and I haven’t even figured out if I’m targeting enemy or friendly. Otherwise, I love the game as is. Thank you for updating with additional missions. I had them before on Google Play, but not on IOS. More future missions would be great, if I can get past # 16. ### 4/5 — MISSION 16!! *2025-04-04* The mission literally will not let me pass. I’ve tried effectively killing the 3 guys actively moving on the hill-didn’t pass despite killing them prior to convoy reaching them. I’ve tried shooting the hillside where it shows the “target” on the after actions-despite it killing the guys all prior to convoy reaching them… still didn’t pass. If there’s a solution to this I’d love a response. Or even an update. **Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the review and sorry for the radio silence. We have just seen your review and looked at level 16 and yes there is a bug. We will try get this patched and release an update soon. Sorry for all the frustration this may have caused! Update: New version has now been released with a fix for this bug. ### 3/5 — Good start, hope for more updates and more mission types *2025-03-30* Great new missions for this game except for mission 16. It’s impossible to complete, objective is not clear enough and those two trucks get destroyed no matter how fast my call for fire is or how many troops I kill. Message to observers take way too long and is generally just time consuming by how slow it is. First round impacts are guaranteed to be inaccurate which is a bit frustrating considering it takes 45 seconds to make a correction and see the next impact. Would be great if this game included more mission types in the call for fire and be able to use MOE and MOF/C. It would be really cool to have more variety in a mission. **Developer response:** Hi sorry for the issues with level 16, this should be fixed now with the latest update, there was a bug that prevented you from passing the mission even if you killed all the insurgents. As for first round impacts always being off, this was by design. The original purpose of the app was for soldier to practice the process of adjusting onto a target, so we have deliberately added a random offset for the first round impacts. We are looking into further mission types, thanks for the feedback it is appreciated! ### 4/5 — Good Concept *2025-02-19* Great Idea for an app and well executed if not a little basic. Would be good to see it developed a little more. Developers could look to add the following: Multiple targets in different locations. Ability to select which barrel you adjust a target with (so you can adjust and record multiple targets concurrently) Static or moving friendly forces moving toward targets (for you to consider safety of when adjusting, ie) if friendly line of departure is heading from your position towards target it would force you to fire beyond target then creep your adjustments towards it. Could also Add WP rounds to mask friendly movement. Night time fire missions in order to incorporate Illume rounds. ### 3/5 — It’s okay *2024-09-29, version 1.0.6* It’s impossible to get first round effects in this sim. On grid missions it says I put the exact grid of the enemy location yet the first round is way off, makes it impossible to beat mission 10. ### 5/5 — Fun simulator *2023-02-10, version 1.0.6* Awesome amazing. Left me wanting more Fire missions. Please can you create more. ### 5/5 — Good Game!! *2023-01-30* More update please!!! ### 5/5 — Great App! *2022-12-21, version 1.0.6* Recently branched FA and was looking for something to help refresh my CFF before FABOLC and this did the trick! Only complaint is the limited amount of situations, would be great to see different terrain and more complex missions! Great Job! ### 5/5 — Brilliant… more please… *2022-11-28* Best $2 I ever spent, LOL. Excellent playing experience and concept. This plays like you are a scout/recon and calling in from a fixed observation point on ground. I’d like to see this expand. The fire direction experience seems realistic (based on watching lots and lots of Ukrainian vids of the directed arty). For distant objects it gets really hard to judge… maybe add a simple drone option that player can get a temp vertical view to assist with distant targets to better observe around hills, but limited it’s flight time during mission? (Keep it simple by just changing a player POV to a 1000ft above current location?). Would love more enhanced sound experience… like distant soft thump of outgoing, shell sounds traveling overhead to entertain while you wait for splash. And maybe add sound delay between visible distant explosion and when it is heard at player position, as it is delayed over distances like 2 or 3 km (but maybe that would upset people who are arcade minded vs reality minded - so a “realism on/off choice”). Really crazy would be impact concussion ring (that expanding ring of shockwave that blows grass down on explosion)? I don’t ask for much right? And missions… please, more of them. How about a set of Randomizing missions based on target classes. In-motion convoy missions, where target can’t leave road due to terrain conditions (muddy fields, or gets trapped in them), etc, e.g., mission is to hit lead and rear and then decimate the line. This has been incredibly fun for $2. But existing missions are completed quickly and becoming repetitive reducing repeat playability which is key. Absolutely love this game. ### 5/5 — Really great *2022-09-27* I never write reviews or should I say rarely write them. This “game” was great. Not only was it a realistic experience but just very pleasant and almost relaxing listening to the voices go through the Call for Fire process. Really brought back some memories of training in NTC! Hope they plan on creating more scenarios. Mountainous terrain while using and actual map to determine location would be amazing but I understand likely not at all easy. Either way this is a great job by the developers. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Great *2022-08-10* Great game, however an update or at least new missions would be great. ### 3/5 — ADJUST FOR FIRE PROBLEM *2022-06-26* I’m using an iPhone 11 and the game is fantastic except for the fact that when adjusting fire, adding “up” distance isn’t working properly. Adjusting right, left and down works just fine. Disappointing because much of the gameplay is very real, especially with the radio play between the observer and fire control. ### 5/5 — Cool *2022-06-23, version 1.0.6* Best artillery simulator ### 4/5 — Awesome training Aid *2022-06-22* Great App guys. Used it to reinforce teaching the AACFF with Officer trainees. They loved it and we incorporated this app into PLCOMD formative assessments for OPs onto TAIs, PL Delib Attacks, Area defences and standing patrols. Would love to see another update with a full spectrum of Arty/MOR effects, Veh supporting fires and SFMG onto objectives as this will broaden this app as a training aid. If you can mould this weekend into an SBF/MFC perspective supporting a mech inf assault that would be amazing. More missions please, my PL has finished them all. ### 5/5 — Really really good artillery sim *2022-04-14* Really informative and fun to play / learn. Worth every penny! ### 5/5 — fun! want more *2022-04-03* interesting to know how mortar team work. i’d like to play more of this. with stronger enemies, more rounds, more visual and sound effects. i also want to play on firing crew. ### 5/5 — BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD!🎉🥳🥳🥳 *2022-02-20* This is PHENOMENAL! The first EVER CFFT on the AppStore! There’s SO much potential to this new app. I’m sure that it will immediately have the support of next to all Fisters. Many people are requesting more complicated missions such as coordinated alum, or to utilize fuses such as Time, delay, VT, etc. (which would be awesome) but I would like to request a more traditional method of target location. I would LOVE to see a compass, map, and protractor added to the game for the sake staying sharp on traditional methods of target location. Considering how new this app is, it deserves a 10/10!!🥳 Waiting in anticipation for more to come. 💯🇺🇸 ### 4/5 — Great app to build from *2022-02-16* Out freakin standing, building a CFF app. I was happy to pay for it. I love the realism for how to CFF. My few critiques would be; speed of the computer read backs (I would like to Challange myself with speed but it’s hard with a slow computer), add more types of missions (SFKP, immediate suppression, maybe some CAS or CCA), and make it harder terrain features (mountains to force using elevation adjustment). One more thing, make the guns more accurate. I want first round steel on steel. Great job developing this, I would definitely do in app purchases to add some of the things listed above. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No audio *2021-03-23* No audio on my iPad during the game ### 2/5 — Nice Try but not reflective of real world *2025-09-27, version 1.0.11* Nice concept and program but as a proficient real life Fire Supporter, the corrections do not correlate with reality at a basic level. ### 2/5 — Y’all messed up *2021-09-12, version 1.0.6* In game he calls up Observe target direction after MTO. When would you ever put direction after the MTO?? That’s should be in the second transmission by doctrine. Or maybe I’m just dumb. ### 2/5 — Review *2021-06-11* I think the app is pretty cool but I have an issue. Some how, some way I always have a TLE of like 250+ even though the sim uses a simmed LLDR. If I input the targeting data, which should be 100% accurate, I should get first round effects or at LEAST a TLE of less than 100. Today I did a laser polar mission and first round landed no s***, short 170 left. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the app to see if there is a bug or anything to be fixed. Still, after a little less than a year of using the app, the problem still persists. I’d love to see the app go more in depth with FiSt stuff. Maybe get some smoke or illum missions in there. It would be cool if vehicle ID was part of the end grading. ### 2/5 — Good app *2020-09-17, version 1.0.6* Great idea and seems it would be very helpful but I can’t get any rounds after my initial round. I try to adjust it and never see a splash. ### 2/5 — 初弾及び修正射の改善について *2020-06-28* 確かにリアルであるが初弾が100ミル以上の修正量は現実的では無いし、例えば初弾が70ミルの所に弾着してるのに120ミルも動かさないと近弾にならない。多少、誤差は有るのは致し方ないが差が有り過ぎる。 ### 2/5 — Not working *2020-04-12, version 1.0.2* I can’t get the rounds to fire at all ### 2/5 — Forward observer *2019-10-03, version 1.0* I am an actual currently serving 13F, the idea is great, but I can’t get ANY effects on target, even with using the reticle and the OT factor I still can’t manage to put rounds on target, I might be doing something to make the sim freak out but it throws my rounds completely off target with the right adjustments ### 2/5 — Corrections left right not working *2019-10-03, version 1.0* Corrections on the simulator have bugs. Would Input spotting and OT factor but then makes a correction with the distance Instead . Needs fixes. FFE Needs to be fixed; would hear impact with no impact ### 3/5 — Mission 17 is impossible to clear *2025-05-03* Destroy infantry or destroy vehicles But can’t clear. **Developer response:** Hi sorry about level 16! you are right there is a bug. We will get this fixed and release an update soon. Update: New version has now been released with a fix for this bug, please let us know what you think ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 訓練としてできる *2026-05-01* 前進観測のやらなければいけない事がしっかりと詰まってて訓練になる。 英語も分かっておけば共同訓練のときに役に立つ(経験済み) ### 5/5 — 11c *2025-11-10, version 1.0.11* Miss the days of being a chuck this close to being back. I wish it gave the options to ask for types of rounds nothing like dropping some WP. ### 5/5 — Shot over! *2025-06-20, version 1.0.11* Great refresher on call for fire. I only have problems reading the numbers off the binoculars. The font could be bigger. Glad to see still upgrading! ### 5/5 — Level 16! Please help *2025-06-17* On level 16 after the bug fix update I still cannot fire more than one round down range. After impact, the buttons do not show up on the screen for me to adjust etc. ### 5/5 — Bravo 4 zero *2025-06-07, version 1.0.10* Bug on level 16 still needs fixed, but great simulation. Takes me back to my days training to be a Fire Supporter at FT. Sill. ### 5/5 — Great *2025-03-26* Great game and thankful for the update and new missions. Sadly it doesn’t seem to be working today. Either the voice control button doesn’t so poor when it does it won’t send the message when trying to press it. ### 5/5 — Sound *2024-11-23, version 1.0.6* Cannot get the sound to work anymore, tried deleting and reinstalling still wont work please help. Love the game. ### 5/5 — 砲身砲ではなく迫撃砲 *2023-11-12* 修正量が砲身砲のそれと思っているとびっくりするぐらいズレるのでそこだけ注意してください。 ### 5/5 — Question for developers *2023-05-12, version 1.0.6* Hey guys I’m trying to use this with a paper map to work on paper grid work. What is the location of the OP so I can get the correct map? ### 5/5 — Pulling grid off map *2023-03-30* Allow the ability to plot the grid of the target on the map to get the range --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
