### 4/5 — Great game

*2021-02-27, version 2.0*

Great game to play when board but there is only 3 maps

### 1/5 — Forced to purchase no ads or game can’t be played

*2021-02-24*

As the game progresses, there are more planes to try to land. At the bottom of the screen is the ad banner which does not allow you to see planes until they have already crashed into others. You must purchase the no add option for it to go away. It’s unfortunate that they designed it in that manner

### 1/5 — Google Ads

*2020-12-09*

Love the Game! I purchased the add on to delete advertising which they did but the Google advertisement white box still comes on and stays while covering the bottom of screen where it’s impossible to detect incoming aircraft so you will crash every time!
So frustrating!!!

### 5/5 — Perfect example of how proper plane control games should be.

*2019-11-10*

This is a great plane control app. Very responsive controls, and the # of planes increases as you play.

### 5/5 — Cool

*2018-08-26, version 2.0*

Cool alternative to flight control, maybe more planes and maps?

### 1/5 — Ad killer

*2018-03-18, version 2.0*

When your pop up ads start blocking new planes arriving on screen and you crash this is lazy programming. Too amateur,  too negative. Deleted after 2 rounds.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2014-10-26*

It's fun only one thang plz make there be less planes

### 4/5 — Issue game not continuing

*2014-01-24*

When I pause the game and come back after a while my game is gone and I have to restart the game, this is happening all the time now, and is upsetting when you have a high score and hope to build on it. Is this a known issue and can it be fixed?

### 5/5 — Great game

*2013-10-31*

Thankyou so much for this game I love that it glows and it's a great time passer

### 4/5 — Funky game

*2013-08-16, version 1.0*

I play everywhere. It's great.
