### 4/5 — Good game

*2026-04-11, version 2.07*

Fun and enjoyable with just the right level of challenge. Can be a bit of a grind and will catch you out if you try to do too much too fast

### 4/5 — Another win for Kairosoft

*2026-02-23, version 2.07*

If you’re a fan of the other games, just won’t disappoint. It’s got a lot of great exploration different planes all the stuff that you fall in love with from the other games. It keeps me coming back from work.

### 4/5 — Pretty Little Pictures

*2025-11-25, version 2.07*

Cute and funny, I love the games pixel art and style! And an odd detail but I love the cafe/mission menu that acts as the hub and the multiplane animated background.
I think that the game has a number of unique details in its game mechanics, many of which I like, some I wish they had expanded on more. Some things like how to equip items to pilots feels a little hard to find because you sort of scroll down on certain pages to reveal where that is. Pretty good freemium game though Beastie Bay still takes the crown for me!

### 5/5 — Great little game

*2025-09-18, version 2.07*

I just can’t help but keep coming back to this game. A great way to kill 20 minutes… or hours!

### 5/5 — Very awesome

*2025-08-17, version 2.07*

This is a great game I like it

### 5/5 — Good

Dood game

### 5/5 — Fun F2P Game.

*2025-07-12, version 2.07*

It’s a fun game that unlike many other mobile games I’ve tried doesn’t handicap you at some point unless you start paying. Patients and the variations of load outs, planes, and how you approach the game make it a fun experience.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2025-07-08, version 2.07*

Ive come back to this game every couple of years and it keeps getting better

### 5/5 — good

*2025-07-04, version 2.07*

good

### 4/5 — One of their better freemium games

*2025-05-26, version 2.07*

I enjoy all of Kairosoft's pay once and play games. I find their freemium games to be mostly unsatisfying. This one is an exception. The gameplay has been a lot of fun. Getting new planes, building your base, training your pilots and exploring on expeditions has all been good. Haven't had to pay a cent yet either to progress. Try it out-you'll like it.

### 5/5 — 很不错

*2025-05-14, version 2.07*

### 5/5 — Kairosoft au dessus y’a rien

Hormis le soleil, merci aux devs meilleurs jeux cumulés de tous les temps !. Gratuit (un peu bandeau de pub pas gênant). Et tellement top fun . Merci

### 5/5 — Give it a go for quick fun games

This game has been quite fun and actually quite deep. Now where are those promised medals??

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — I want to remove ads

*2024-01-09, version 2.03*

There’s no way to remove ads at all , sorry i don’t do ads, why would i expose myself to such a thing ?

### 1/5 — Very greedy

*2018-02-14*

Almost always, I have to sit through a 5 second ad when I open the app. There’s also always a banner ad at the bottom of the screen. There’s no way to disable these - I have the $12 pass, but they’d be there even if you buy the $23 one.

To progress in the game, you have to gamble. It gets so difficult that you will run out of resources recovering from your failures that you can’t grow. You have to gamble on planes and parts, but also sometimes on the action cards you get.

There is so much waiting. Research starts reasonable (a few hours) but then becomes days as you grow. Attaching parts and upgrading items also takes hours. 

The game is also difficult, but you can’t really learn from it. Planes are more or less effective against sky or ground enemies, but enemies also have resistance to some weapon types and some elements. You don’t know going in and you would have to wait hours and use items to adjust your elemental damage anyway. If a plane is shot down, you have to spend both free currencies to retrieve and repair it, and it permanently has less health unless you use a rare item. Some of my planes became basically useless after a rough level, and they’re setting you up to fail.

The devs set you up to fail so you spend more money on the game.

And it’s not even worth it. When you win, the game isn’t fun. You probably won’t measure up to the next challenge, or it won’t be available until you run a mission five times.

And TapJoy, who they’ve paired with for free premium currency offers, is a borderline scam. I reached out to their support for an offer a little over two weeks ago and haven’t heard back. That will probably be the nail in the coffin, because the only way I saw myself being able to beat the game was gamble on good planes and parts, but I can’t bring myself to spend real money.

This dev used to make good games but greed got to them.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2017-07-04, version 1.74*

Sad to see kairosoft devolve into making freemium games, rather than the quality they used to produce.

### 1/5 — No support

*2017-05-14, version 1.70*

Spent a £30 buying the premium account for this game and now the app won't open. Really looking forward to re-installing and losing my premium account and progress.. of and the tapjoy cr@p doesn't work either, videos for 1 medal do, non of the other promotions work.

### 1/5 — Crash

*2016-11-08*

Crashes on startup ..
Not able to play on 5s

### 1/5 — Nul :(

*2016-07-03*

Amusant au début puis ça devient un pay to win... Vraiment dommage. J'espère que les prochains jeux ne seront pas comme ça .....

### 2/5 — Great game. Crashes a tad too often. Buggy with its timer

*2021-04-14, version 1.93*

Great charmy game. You will find lots of description on why elsewhere.

But man the game can crash. And the crashes happen often. When it happens during an “expedition”, your progress is gone. You spent 20KG on lunch? Gone. You spent a lot of time finding the right escort helper? Gone. There is no progress resumption. (Playing on iPad mini 4.)

I find crashes most often when you stay in the same screen for too long. (“Long” as in more than a few seconds.) As a player, you cant fix the bug. I dont recommend rushing anything. Just in an expedition, try not to go afk.

The timer is buggy and just poorly coded. This compounds with the item cap system. You are supposed to get 6 hours before excess items are removed. (Not sold not converted to anything. Removed.) Item removal does not follow any last-in first-out order. It follows some rough value order with some randomness. (Value as assigned by the game. Not in true utility. Nor is there any protection for exclusive items from draws.) So, what happens when the timer is poorly coded? 

I had 50 items removed after playing for half an hour! 50! 0.5 hour! If you have started the game you know the item cap starts at 30 and does not go over 120 for a long time unless you pay and even if you do it still doesnt go over 120 quickly. Figure what 50 means in game progression.

I re-opened the game from last night without having to reboot the app. Presumably, the excess item status is unable to refresh the timer. Why? Poor coding is why. Here, the player can ensure to reboot the app upon a new session as long as it’s a new day. 

And that’s why I left a review. For the player, I hope you heed the warning and take the precaution. The bug can happen to you. For the dev, please, get the timer to work. Caching progression shouldnt be crazy costly to develop either.

### 2/5 — Decent

*2020-06-02, version 1.93*

Big departure from Kairosoft of old.  Freemium game design is what it is.  Long waits and grind or spend cash to avoid it.  Meh.  I'll take old Kairosoft over this anyway.  Game is decently fun without having to spend a dime so, 3 stars.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2017-10-08, version 1.78*

Meh

### 2/5 — Great idea, horrible execution.

*2017-04-11, version 1.02*

This game is fun on its initial hours, but soon fall into the biggest sin of any freemium game, the endless wait. Also having some weapons and planes being available only by draw chance, makes the game very frustrating.
