Игра условно неплохая и даже технически сделана неплохо, но слишком много гринда. Одни и те же миссии нужно проходить до дыр что бы продвинуться вперед и заработать денег. Последнее не так уж и важно так как все равно нужно гриндить миссии ### 3/5 — Bon mais ennuyeux *2026-04-17* Tres bon shoot sur le principe , joli, niveaux bien fait et sympa à jouer mais tellement ennuyeux !!!! Pas de tir en continu , pourquoi ne pas le proposer en option ? Pas de cartes ou de bonus qui apparaissent pendant le run Ca rendrait le jeu plus excitant L helico est trop gros et ne se faufile pas entre les tirs ennemis Dommage ca aurait pu etre un super jeu mais c est trop mou et au bout de quelques heures j ai lache l affaire pour retourner sur le meilleur dans le gence SKY FORCE Quel gachis 😔😔 ### 2/5 — Just Pretty *2024-10-18, version 1.7.2* As with the majority of mobile SHMUPS, this one only looks good while having little to offer in terms of power-ups. There’s virtually nothing for settings, and nothing at all to improve the sluggish controls. It’s feels like you’re drawing a line for a snail to follow. This makes it a pain to destroy targets hanging at the edge of the screen. A boring pass. ### 4/5 — Need more helicopters *2024-09-13, version 1.7.2* I’ve been playing this for a while now and it froze fro a while and when I uninstalled it and downloaded it back I couldn’t play. My data was deleted and now I gotta start over. I was excited to see it in 2024 and I thought the developers was gonna add new helicopters and guns, but still nothing new. When I say I’ve been playing for a while, I mean since I was 14 and everything is still the same, nothing new to do but repeat the game😭 ### 4/5 — Need more helicopters *2024-08-15* I’ve been playing this for a while now and it froze fro a while and when I uninstalled it and downloaded it back I couldn’t play. My data was deleted and now I gotta start over. I was excited to see it in 2024 and I thought the developers was gonna add new helicopters and guns. ### 3/5 — Super mais plante *2024-01-16* Le jeu plante dès l'ouverture... ### 3/5 — It’s an amazing game I love it but … *2023-02-21, version 1.7.1* The restore purchase feature doesn’t work I spent £10-15 on coins and when I download it and log in with game centre I have the achievement of having 500,000 coins But when I go to restore purchase The button disappears and doesn’t restore my purchase unfortunately Please fix this thank you ### 4/5 — Restart? *2021-11-07, version 1.7.1* So been a minute since I played this but the game started me over. I wonder if there is any way to get back to where I was in progress? ### 5/5 — Einwandfrei *2021-01-30* War schon mit dem Handy unter Windows 8 cool. Auf dem iPad ist es noch besser. ### 5/5 — Great time killer for sure *2020-11-06, version 1.7.1* Game is awesome fun gotta play a lot to get ahead I find the train stage is the best to make money to buy upgrades for they are vary expensive as game progress good time killer for sure ### 5/5 — Kann Süchtig machen ;-) macht mir Spaß. *2020-10-18* Achtung Sucht Gefahr ### 5/5 — Great game *2020-07-24, version 1.7.1* Had this game for several years now and I really enjoy it. Only negative I have is, need some new levels! ### 4/5 — 🚁 + 🚀 = 👍🏼✊🏼‼️ *2020-05-11* It’s never to late for an good Add-on with new Maps & a few more nice Chopper!!!. So: please create & release some stuff! 🚁 + 🚀 = 👍🏼✊🏼‼️ ### 5/5 — Fun game.... switch controls to the right finger one *2020-04-18, version 1.7.1* Save your stars for new weapons, missles, and helicopters. Skip the star upgrades...the other icons dont buy.. there’s no explanation for them and the icons dont help at all. ### 5/5 — Very good game *2020-03-24, version 1.7.1* I think HELI HELL is a wonderful game to play but not if you’re a pacifist but if you’re into war and/or you’re a pilot it is such a nice game to play. ### 5/5 — Get To My Choppa!!! *2020-02-24, version 1.7.1* I’ll save you all! It’s what I say while playing this most excellent game!!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The game isn’t been working *2023-11-27, version 1.7.1* The game isn’t worked for months…I put real money into this game!!!! ### 1/5 — Проблемы с запуском *2022-01-30* Ни в какую не запускается, хоть ты тресни! Устанавливаю (вернее, пытаюсь) уже второй или даже третий раз, но все равно вылетает сразу же, как только кликаю на иконку игры, как и все предыдущие разы! ### 1/5 — Malicious link blocked in game *2021-03-09, version 1.7.1* This game has malware in it ### 1/5 — Never received upgrade coin *2021-02-06, version 1.7.1* I purchased 250000 in upgrade coin and never received it ### 1/5 — Сделайте оптимизацию для iphone 10 и новее *2020-01-07* Хочу пройти игру на третий раз... Кстати, для всех, кто пишет негативные отзывы из за навязчивого доната, вся игра проходится на первом вертолете, так что закройте рты, если у вас кривые пальцы ### 1/5 — What is wrong with you? *2019-05-01, version 1.7.1* Even if you wanted money, you literally programmed this game to be a time sink. Did you ever calculate how much it would take to beat your game? When one objective is “Collect 100,000 coins in this level” and you only get 5,000 per run, that’s 20 repeats. And when the very next objective is “Now collect 150,000 more coins”, that’s 30 more repeats. Same goes for killing 500 enemies on a 10 enemy stage because mines don’t count even though they can kill you. Does playing a level at least 50 times just to get 1/15 objectives sound fun? How about when getting all the objectives is the only way to progress through the game? And don’t even get me started on the unavoidable enemy fire patterns or the “shoot ‘em one at a time” auto-targeting that the developer exploits by throwing around distraction enemies while you only want to shoot the giant ship in front of you. I just wish I could’ve reviewed this game back when you cared about it (if you ever did), but it took me this long to play far enough to give an honest assessment. It is truly terrible as a result of misguided developer decisions rather than anything technical or conceptual. It is an embarrassing misrepresentation of everything it pretends to be. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2016-07-02, version 1.5* The helicopter's hurtbox is so wide that it's impossible to avoid the bullets, the helicopter's guns are insanely weak and take way too long to kill anything, enemy ships keep shooting you once you past them, and there's not a constant stream of fire, meaning you can only shoot out bullets coming toward you if there happens to be an enemy in front of you, the music when you die and get 'achievements' is insanely loud, cheesy, and obnoxious. The game is WAY too hard. Games like these are supposed to make your helicopter feel better than all the enemies, usually having very strong guns or something to balance out having to fight multiple enemies at a time, but your helicopter is literally worse than any other enemy, being slow, big, and dealing barely any damage. I deleted this game in frustration of it wanting to leech my money to continue the impossibly difficult levels. This game is TRASH. I wish there was a 0 stars option, even giving this piece of crap one star feels generous. ### 1/5 — Update: greed and failure *2015-02-18, version 1.1.2* Loved this game. Now the update... New heli and weapons!!! But they cost a ton (a helicopter in the game costs $50 at 70% off sale?) and the removal of 2x coin at the end has made getting these heli and weapons prohibitive. You'll either need skill and a WHOLE lot of free time and the willingness to play one level over 100s and 100s of times... Or break down and spend 100s of dollars. I'm guessing the latter is the hope of the devs. Pay for what skill cannot get without hundreds or maybe thousands of hours of boredom along with it. You kind of ruined it guys. ### 1/5 — Could be better *2014-12-20, version 1.1.1* Graphics ugly gameplay bad ### 1/5 — Seriously, No Tilt Controls Option?!?! *2014-09-12, version 1.0.3* Graphics are great, & as far as this style of game goes this "could" be a really good one . . . but not without tilt controls. Touch controls in a game like this is lame b/c your hand is blocking the view of the screen half the time—when I'm at the top of the screen fighting there are enemies shooting or flying up behind me & I can't see them through my hand!! Plus, after a few minutes of playing touch my finger is sore from the friction sliding it around. I'd love to play this, but not when I can't see everything and my finger is getting raw so fast. A tilt control option is sooo easy to add, and such a natural and usual fit for this style game, I don't get why it isn't there?!?!?!?!?!?!!!! I won't play w/o them, and lots of others won't either. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — HELI HELL 2024 *2026-01-28, version 1.7.2* T-rated ### 5/5 — Need More *2025-11-08, version 1.7.2* This is a great shooter!! Really wish they would make a sequel or that there would be more shooters like this. It absolutely feels like a real arcade quality game. If your an old school gamer like me you will love this game👍 ### 5/5 — Not fully functional for iPad *2024-09-25, version 1.7.2* Not allowing me to add on no ads an unlimited magnet it’s only showing part of the screen. I see a different version on iPhone. I had to get a refund. Great gameplay. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2024-05-19* Quel joie de retrouver ce jeu remis au goût du jour! Très bon shoot !! ### 5/5 — When are you developers gonna fix the game pls *2024-03-04, version 1.7.1* So I downloaded this game long ago and it started to not entering the game so I felt mad not to come back playing this favorite game so I would like it if this game will be fixed and not crashing it pls🙏🏼 ### 5/5 — Прикольная игрушка *2023-03-21* Люблю вертолёты ### 5/5 — This was my favorite game *2022-10-31, version 1.7.1* I wanted to play to play it again for nostalgia but when I tried to load the game, it just crashes and just has a black screen.

It’s amazing, one thing I would ask for is the ability to disable the camera moving ### 5/5 — Great game *2021-12-31, version 1.7.1* The best shooter yet!!
