As a valued member of the Allied forces, you have the power to turn the tide of war. Prepare for battle! - Take control of your bomber by tilting your device to the left and right to dodge oncoming attacks. - Simply tap on the screen in the desired location to fire machine guns at attacking fighter planes. You can fire up to two volleys of machine gun bullets at the same time with two fingers. - Launch a set number of bombs at the touch of a button to hit marked targets and complete your missions. - Realistic ground maps and plane models along with sound effects give you a feeling of participating in real battles. - Volleys of ground to air missiles keep you on your toes as you prepare to bomb a target. - Heavy damage to the plane, depending on where you're hit, can either cripple the engines or kill crew members.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Vikings II at Free against Bomber Captain's $0.99. Vikings II also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.7) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 19 months). Bomber Captain's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Vikings II holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vikings II has 3.2K ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Bomber Captain's written reviews are positive against 37% of Vikings II's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Bomber Captain ships an update every 19 months, Vikings II every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
