Very disappointed! ### 5/5 — Nice game!! *2014-02-18* I had downloaded backyard pilot previusly so I know how to play. It need an altimeter, this one and bacyard too, otherwise is my favourite game ### 1/5 — Out and out theft from in app level purchases. Avoid *2014-02-14, version 2.0* If your little one chooses to buy another level (unlock), then the app goes into a loop, giving you no option but to buy it. Hitting cancel to the iTunes login doesn't work, and even after a reboot, its still trying to grab your money. Know what you're doing before downloading this, and be VERY careful if you fancy unlocking additional levels. ### 1/5 — Flying *2014-02-12, version 2.0* But the game is rubbish ### 3/5 — Potential there *2014-01-07* It's ok, needs an altimeter or something , really hard to figure out what level you or the enemy is at , it's all guessing , the controls take some time to get used to but otherwise it's not too bad, but not the best by far ### 4/5 — Not Too Bad *2013-10-20* Moderately interesting game. It needs more interaction. Become part of a squadron or something. Need targets on the island for more challenge. Graphics are ok, controls are ok. Some MAJOR bugs! After winning over one island, your carrier starts to take on constant strikes at about 1,000 per minute. Then your bombs won't work any more. ### 2/5 — Rating *2013-10-16, version 2.0* I liked the concept of this game. But there are some issues. 1 you only get one bomb at a time which would be fine but there isn't much else to do but drop bombs. Also if you read the how to play instructions you have to start your mission from the beginning. Good idea but not enough to make me want to play more. ### 2/5 — ....... *2013-04-21* Nice game... Maybe add some multiplayer mode? And indicator when you want to take offer the island or maybe sink the enemy ship ### 1/5 — Toatally RUBBISH!!!!! *2013-04-03, version 2.0* Only get one bomb. Don't get this!!!! Because it is rubbish!! Delete it if you've got it and do it now!!!!!!!!!!! ### 2/5 — Medway *2013-03-15, version 2.0* Frankly rather dull. ## Frequently asked questions about Over Midway ### What is this game about?
