dead air teaches you morse code. it goes about it the way the old typing tutors did. you drill, the drills get harder as you get better, and there is a game wrapped around them so you come back tomorrow. the method is koch, which is how morse has actually been taught since the 1930s. you start at full speed with two characters. once those stick you get two more. no charts, no counting dots, no memorizing a tree. twenty lessons, forty characters including numbers and punctuation, then a last run where all of them turn up at once. there are two skills in morse and the game grades them apart. sending is one. you tap out characters on a straight key, short for a dot and long for a dash, and the timing has to come from you. copying is the other, and it is the one that takes longer. nothing is written on screen for it. you hear a character and answer on the keypad. the game around the drills: a radio station in sector 55 is being overrun, and you clear the people coming for it by keying or copying whatever they carry. six kinds turn up. one of them speeds up when you get it wrong, one takes two correct answers, one blacks out the characters near it, and every third lesson finishes with a boss that needs five clean answers to put down. also in it: - an endless practice mode on a rolling set of characters, for when you only want reps - speed from 5 to 25 words per minute, and a pitch control for the tone - 58 achievements, one for every lesson on each of the two tracks - a field manual covering morse, the koch method, every enemy and how the lessons work, so you are not reading a wiki in another window - a key tester for finding your timing before anything is coming at you the tone is generated as it plays rather than read off a sound file, so the pitch control does what it says and the timing is what you set. no account, no network, no ads, no telemetry. your progress is three files on your own device. music by freshley crusher. digital gangster for eternity. rip to the fallen homies. momino is beautiful and amazing. written by ytcracker (KR4CKR) and clord.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: dead air at none against Skyforce Unite!'s 7. dead air also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 2 months). Skyforce Unite!'s advantage is ratings volume (302 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
