About this game

Be a pioneer of aerial warfare in Warplanes: WW1 Sky Aces. Fight above the battlefields of World War I and become the ultimate Sky Ace!
The game will take you into the times when aviation was in its dawning of existence – the first Wright brothers machines went into the sky just 11 years before the Great War! Engineers were quickly adapting this brand new invention into military purposes while creating fascinating and sometimes oddly looking planes.
In Warplanes: WW1 Sky Aces you take control of over 30 historical airplanes – including the Fokker Dr.I, famous for its pilot Manfred von Richthofen a.k.a. “Red Baron”. Others stemming from light fighters like the Airco DH.2 to an enormous 4-engine bomber like the Sikorsky Ilya Muromets – all planes can be customized and upgraded.
Choose between two modes suited for different playstyles and skillsets. In Pilot Mode you can simply focus on air combat, collecting and upgrading planes. Squadron Leader Mode adds an extra layer to the gameplay – apart from combat, you also need to manage resources, hire and train pilots and expand your base.
Two campaigns for Triple Entente and one for Central Powers will let you experience all major fronts of World War I – you’ll fly above most countries that participated in the conflict in various types of mission. Pilot fighters and bombers. Protect or destroy ground targets. Face mighty zeppelins and anti aircraft artillery to change the tides of war.

Ratings and reviews

Good graphics, but the controls are not great and the game play is extremely limited. You have the option to use auto aim (which is too easy) or hardcore mode (which is better, but too difficult). The planes are cool, especially the custom paint jobs, but the upgrade options are basic and not very exciting. The missions are very repetitive, which was disappointing.

A very fun game. Lots of customization and very beautiful planes. There aren't too many adds but you can watch them for rewards. One thing I would like to see added is the ability to buy multiple of the same plane. As it is you can buy more hangers than you would ever need for the planes available. I notice the same two planes are damaged the most often and I would like to remove them from my squadron without being down two planes.

This game is fantastic, don't get me wrong, it's just that there are somethings that can be added to make it better. For one, fix the bug with chosing fighters in Mission Editor. Another thing they could add is allowing you to customize the plane colors in Mission Editor. The final thing they could add is the ability to buy more than one of a specific type of plane in the main game. This is still a great game, but I think these changes would make it even better than it already is.
