Unplayable offline. Either it needs an online handshake every boot or update is bad. Black screen upon booting offline.
- Darwin Cruz
Control is fine, tip for those complaining: you can set your plane to auto fire by tapping the fire button once. BUT there is an annoying bug that causes the game to not load after I exit the game then reload it, it will just show me a black screen. It can be resolved by clearing all data of the game EVERY TIME I want to play, but all the latest local save is deleted altogether, so need to load from the cloud save afterwards. I am on POCO C65 Phone. Please fix it and I will update the rating.

I paid for this game, yet I am forced to seek unauthorized versions because the developer's update broke the game for months. The game launches normally the first time after installation, but stays on a black screen on every subsequent launch.
- Phang Chen Hui
this game is peak, i remember playing the first game back then, i wonder why its not in the playstore anymore
- Wan Sazwan
Doesn't seem to have controller support. Otherwise a good game.
- Shane Williams · v1.0.20
Not a good impression for playing the game on android. Also I tried to open it and stuck on the black screen
- rizky adit
Does not load on my honor magic 8pro,played once.Then uninstall it
- Bryan Whittaker
fun until it stops working.
- chris henderson
No longer working just a black blank screen - using S23Ultra Please fix as it even deleted and tried reloading it a few times
- Hassen Ally · v1.0.20
good pilot game
- Shaun Mckee · v1.0.20
I thought this has controller support being played in landscape. It feels so clunky with bigger screen than your either swiping the whole screen
- Dztsrz · v1.0.13
i hope i can play this with game controller. it's more comfortable than relative touch control.
- Ric Solomon Dela Cruz · v1.0.20
I like this game a lot, actually! The fact that there's 2 DLCs for us to play really helps us get a further understanding of the game's story. Not only that, this game teaches us what it's like being able to handle various situations regarding disorders/pressure efficiently, with great upgrades, etc. Sadly, the original AOTL isn't up for newer devices...
- Masbro Kenzie · v1.0.20
I like it 😁
- Cosmin · v1.0.18
i already bought this game. why i need to buy again? you want proof i have google play receipt!!!
- Abdullah Hadji Daud · v1.0.18
This game asks the question, what if you got to play as nazis and attack the United States? Seems in poor taste given the current state of affairs. The title really gives it away, I just didn't think they'd go there. Also, horrible controls and you can't see your nazi planes because your thumb is covering the screen. Bad controls, bad voice acting, bad premise. BJ Blazkowicz would like to have a word with tue devs.
- Ryan Streiff · v1.0.18
nice game 🎮
- Anushka Patel · v1.0.18
Spectacular
- Erkin Odilov · v1.0.18
As players in 2025 we are supposed to be equipped with transparent hands right? Enemies are coming from all angles and can't see through our fingers. So we are killed..game over? No options for control spec's.. and there's no sound whatsoever?? Clearly this game is not finished yet.. No sound and be blindsided by enemies that your hands are controlling the avatar? Yeah uh great game. Pffft.. this is top tier trash.. way to think it through smart guys
- Otis Driftwood
This may not be much, but please fix the issue regarding the Guardian of times last phase the part where he can no longer recover health it usually takes few shots in the PC version but here it takes a lot of shots before being put down
- Harold Lopez · v1.0.18
Could be a 4 if I could turn off subtitles and also if it had native controller support.
- Casual Uno · v1.0.18
Omg! Where is the auto fire and screen optimisation? I may have enjoyed this, let's be honest here, huge memory eating game, if not for its simple lack of tweakable settings. Why?
- David Drift · v1.0.18
Terrible control
- galuh nanda s
The worst controls on a flying shooter ive ever seen it is impossible to complete anything especially when the game is in landscape mode when it needs to be in portrait like every single other 2k flying games no wonder this is a epic failure its a joke and sad because the aces of Luftwaffe game i remember was one of my favourites growing up it was in a class of its own with the cartoon like graphics
- Steve Somerville · v1.0.18
Why aren't more languages supported in the game? How can players who do not understand foreign languages experience the storyline of your game due to language barriers? Perhaps you cannot create languages from hundreds of countries, but should you learn common languages? Especially the languages of countries with large populations, this is terrible
- Shdjsjah · v1.0.13
Fun.
- Richard Vanwinkle · v1.0.18
game looks nice and fun , but too hard for me for this type of game ): lol
- Arif Meow (itsMeowMiau) · v1.0.18
just play space invaders
- Robert Delacruz
Can you give us a new update where we players will be able to see the Nibelung's face completely?
- Yunus Emre Çelik
The control scheme is terrible, making the game nearly unplayable even when you change it in options.
- W O
A great game I love it and the original one no numbers on it
- Abdullah Shahid
Nice game, just not my cup of tea! Maybe when I was younger, I would have enjoyed this game. 3 stars is pushing but I don't believe in low balling on the score rating system as a lot goes into making these games/aps.
- Dale Reid
I actually really like the concept of this game but sadly it's flawed. As mentioned by lots of others, the controls are a mess. For a game that requires precise movement, having a game where you're left fighting the controls makes this incredibly frustrating. And the difficulty is insane. Doesn't matter how many times you upgrade, some of the bosses are outrageously tough. But if you persist there is a fun game here, just a pity the devs make it as difficult as possible for you to enjoy.
- Phil Reed · v1.0.18
I thought it was really hard hard to see what the hell was Going on
- Jason Hawkins · v1.0.18
i give it 3 cuz of the cloud save error you might wanna fix that
- Vincent John Ayuyao
I like this. It is hard and I wish someone would port a game I like similar to this called tyrian 2000.
- Joseph “RealJosephKnapp” Knapp · v1.0.18
The game is splendid! Works like a charm on mobile. The only drawback is that it's eating a little more battery than usual. If they can optimise this then it's a superb game for sure. Can't think of any other negatives as it's way too good
- Sagar Asthana
I hope all game in mobile/android support Bluetooth controller
- Didi Suwito
There is something wrong with this game, I'd notice that this mobile version runs about 30 FPS maximum, while on my potato laptop, it runs smoothly. It's not my phone's fault, I use Vivo T1 with Qualcomm snapdragon 760, please make an option for switching max frame rate on the next update.
- Ammar FF · v1.0.18
The game are good, the graphics, story, and I love the pilot and the Npc have their weakness (PTSD) that totally impact the playthrough. Before you guys download, this game are semi RPG, meaning you need a bit grinding before begin the next level. Some bosses are has randomized pattern bot some of them are same like average shoot em up game, and some easiest bosses will get huge revamp in extreme difficulty. Also no 60 fps render unlike the PC and console version, and no controller support.
- K “Freddy” K · v1.0.18
I can't see anything with these controls...
- Morning Woodpecker · v1.0.18
Landscape mode is an absolute joke for trying to avoid anything going on. If it wasn't focused on a squadron it would be fine. Bosses take up the screen and it's a requirement to go around them. Going around them means (in landscape) that your squadron will take damage/go down. This is why other shmups are not landscape. Bosses are at the top of the screen and you avoid things. That said, avoiding. Can't avoid anything in this game. The window for picking up downed survivors is too small.
- Josh · v1.0.18
Excellent
- Ronnie Harris
This game control is beyond stupid. There's no shoot'em up bullet hell game with dedicated fire button to hold continuously thru gameplay, it should've auto fire
- Piss Bender
Me gusta la dificultad, pero este juego es otro nivel hahaha, súper recomendado.
- Dario Javier · v1.0.18
Direct control is terrible because you have a fire button that needs to be held down and pad controls don't have the right sensitivity. If you make it sensitive so you can cover the whole screen then you can't micro. If you make it insensitive then you can't cover enough ground. Lose lose situation with all the controls
- Choong Gun Ken Lee · v1.0.17
Haven't played much but its a very good game.
- Mr. Proriya
Good weather
- David Duke · v1.0.17
The story is great... It is just weird for me to play a shoot'em up holding your phone horizontally.
- Yoharez Obando · v1.0.17
I dislike having to hold an on-screen shoot button while simultaneously moving. There's no point to holding down the shoot button all the time. Auto fire would be nice. Even on a larger Fold 4 phone is too hard to see through the shoot button and my other "control" finger as planes routinely come from the bottom of the screen. A joystick would be a must.
- Eric Townsend (Fr. Mark)
Unfortunately, it does not start the game. After I hit new game, and selecting the squadron, the game crashes while loading. I requested a refund. EDIT: and I didn't get it....
- Gurkan Eraslan
Very difficult to control the plane.🎮😌
- KEEN 77 · v1.0.17
It’s a good game I have it on Xbox too but only one thing needs to be fixed the boss health bar has no number for max hp and how much it has left and the problem right now is I can get bosses to low enough hp that is says it has 0 hp left but still has hp.
- Aces destroyer 55 · v1.0.13
Hard to play because on this game u can’t rotate the screen to play, that’s why enemies are too close
- gameadictive · v1.0.13
I came across this game and just like sinemura it is very polished and fun/challenging gameplay. This is definitely worth the money and congrats to the developers for doing such an awesome job, the only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I play on the iPad Pro and I can’t get the controller to work during gameplay, if it had controller support it would definitely be five stars for me. Is controller support going to be added for the iPad Pro in a future update?
- TH1S6UY · v1.0.13
I wanted to like this game, but some of the boss fights are too long, repetitive, and frustrating, even on normal difficulty. The story is fun but not worth all the work.
- Lingrush24 · v1.0.13
Its not working on my iPhone 11 pro max
- hammode9898 · v1.0.13
Also the developer seems receptive to customer feedback. That alone deserves a star. Controls work for but options discussed on other forums are always welcome. Thanks for a fun game with a ton of depth to it. Edit: in future updates is there a way to avoid downloading the whole 2.5 gig package? I know Apple provides the capability to limit the download footprint. Not all developers support this but when they do it makes a big difference. Thanks.
- Dario9999 · v1.0.13
Great game with lots of depth. It’s a bullet hell shooter with RPG elements like talent trees for each pilot, buffs and abilities. Feedback - controller support (and maybe multiplayer down the line) would make this game awesome!
