You are the air traffic controller. Aircraft arrive from every direction and it's up to you to bring them down safely. Drag a route with your finger from each aircraft to the right landing spot, and make sure nobody collides. EASY TO LEARN, HARD TO MASTER • Draw a route with your finger, from the aircraft to the landing spot of the same colour • Airliners, propeller planes, helicopters, seaplanes and heavy freighters: each with its own speed and its own place to land • The more you land, the busier it gets ALWAYS LAND INTO THE WIND • The wind decides which runway ends are open • A windsock, wind streaks and a wind gauge show where the wind comes from • Wind shifts force you to rethink your routes, fast NEW CHALLENGES • Drones follow a fixed route and never give way • Military jets have priority and a countdown: miss the deadline and it's game over • Send an aircraft around for an extra circuit, but it comes back 20 seconds later 27 AIRPORTS, 810 LEVELS From Antwerp, Ostend and Brussels to Schiphol, Heathrow, Frankfurt, JFK, Tokyo Haneda and Denver.
