not bad

FAQ section desperately needed on game rewards and how to earn them. Need a bit more faster maneuverability for planes.

Could be great but fails

Thot this was an awesome game but no saves makes it a loser.

Doesn’t safe your levels

This game does not safe your level. You have to start all over on level one every time you open up the game. If it saved your level it would be a good game. Yes it retro but it is a decent game. Giving it one star until they fix the problem with it not saving your level.

Vraiment difficile.

Bon jeu mais vraiment difficile d'obtenir le Hellcat.

Attention!!! Les achats effectués ne se remettent pas à jours lors d’un changement de plateforme!!!

Awesome game!!!

Back when spacies were called spacies this was awesome then and is still good today.. really nice game with upgrades and new planes to buy really get a feel for the ww2 theme
