What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise the game's immersive gameplay, addictive mechanics, and solid foundation as a strategy experience, comparing it favorably to similar military sims. However, several players criticize the lack of content variety, noting that missions feel repetitive and the game feels bare-bones, with one wishing they hadn't purchased after spending time in lengthy tutorials; others suggest quality-of-life improvements like better asset management and detailed engagement information would enhance the experience.
Cool concept with meh execution. Game doesn't scale UI with resolution, making UI unusable at 4k resolutions. Needs a 10x speed setting as there's literal 30min gaps of nothing to do with no information on what's happening. Training missions need more hints (and the hints moved to a more noticeable place!) to explain what's happening. Help section is incomplete and some things are just never explained (what does "buster" mean??).6 found this helpful
Promising so far. Its a wargame about being an air traffic controller and there is really nothing quite like it.

This is a really fun game. The devs did a great job! I've just had it for a day but so far I'm very impressed.
