Read full description

This game has been one of the first pioneering augmented reality experiences. There has been a schism in the world of Wolves. As is with life, there are good Wolves and evil Wolves. In the 3d immersive augmented reality game, you use your wolves as heroes. Guide them into position, and they will curl themselves into their helmets and drop to the ground. Now you can blow them either using your face in augmented reality mode AR; or simply by commanding the winds to blow. You begin the game by starting out with the hard headed Wood Hero. He has a hard head and can do plenty of damage, but you sill soon realize that other kinds of heroes have some pretty amazing talents. Some of them are uniquely talented to specific situations. You will also see certain objects such as the ramp will help you. Augmented or not, this game will excite you. Plan your move, and let the wind start. End the wind at just the right time. The Bomb Hero comes in really handy when you need the force of an explosion when he reaches his target. How bomb explodes destroying enemies and thrusting blocks into the air. The Boomerang Hero comes back into the opposite direction when the wind stops. There are heroes that vaporize, reverse gravity, twist objects, create nuclear explosions and so much more ….and more worlds! Heroes include: The Wood Hero - Effective at collision, blow him at his target, perhaps up a ramp The Bomb Hero - Explosion is his talent, lots of damage The Boomerang Hero - He goes with the wind and then comes back when the wind ends, perhaps up the ramp and back The Vanishing Hero - Makes objects vanish The Nuke Hero - A very large explosion, blow him at his target and stand back from the devastating damage! The Spinning Hero - makes objects spin The Anti gravity Hero - makes objects float, creating damage above The Extra gravity hero - makes objects heavy even in a zero gravity world creating damage below As you play these ingenious levels, you will also find there are ramps, wormholes, transporters, explosions and a whole host of objects that become a part of the challenges. After the first world…. You will encounter worlds with no gravity, wormholes, cannons and strange enemies. Although this game was created with Augmented Reality in mind (AR), the AR is optional. Hold the blow button down and the wind will blow all the same. We had a great deal of fun creating this game, but we want to keep developing and enhancing its features. The Heroes, ramps, wormholes, transporters and all the fun is just as great without the AR, though when your alone, we urge you to at least try it! Many different Heroes have different abilities, useful in different worlds! You can add Heroes to any level using coins that you can buy or earn. Lots of more levels, Heroes, and different objects are available with the full upgrade.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Flow Free at 5.2K against Wind Heroes AR's 2. Flow Free also leads on review sentiment (82% vs 67%). Wind Heroes AR's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Wind Heroes AR holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flow Free has 5.2K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Wind Heroes AR's written reviews are positive against 82% of Flow Free's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Wind Heroes AR ships an update every 2 months, Flow Free every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
