This simple app is pretty fun. When first opened, it gives you the option to use the game sounds or to listen to your own music. This is a great option since a lot of apps shut down your music to play their own game sounds. Planes come in from all directions on the screen and you must drag and direct them to land them on the proper airstrip. After playing this a multiple times, I’ve figured out it is easiest to start out with the fast forward button on the bottom left of the screen till there are too many planes to control at the high speed. Planes and helicopters light up red if they are about to collide with another and turn white if the flight pattern is approved. Does it look like two are about to crash? No problem, redirect one of them around to land safely. They remain their original color if they are just flying around. Planes left unattended to will simply bounce of the edge of the screen till they crash or are directed to land. There are three different fields to land on in this app. For a real challenge, try playing the aircraft carrier level on fast forward!
Another fun way to play is the peer to peer method. By enabling the bluetooth on your iPhone, you can host or join a game with another user. In this mode, one person lands one color of planes. In order to land the other planes, you must send them to your partner for them to land on their screen. I really enjoyed this mode! Of course, you have to be around another person with an iPhone in order to play though.
Over all a very fun game that is super simple to play. Well worth the $0.99 in my opinion for the game. Have fun playing!
