![]() ![]() This game is crying out for iCloud sync as multiplayer stats and campaign progress should sync across devices.Īir Supremacy should be on every iOS gamer’s devices. Be warned this mode on the iPhone can steal an entire lunch break very easily, leaving you with cold leftovers and having to eat over your keyboard. You can also set up private matches but your friends will need to know the name of your game to join. It wasn’t a show stopper, but it’s a common annoyance when looking for a game. I thought that it may be an issue with my network so I tried it on public Wi-Fi and had the same issue. This means that you’re going to randomly get connection errors. You’re given a random assortment of ten games to choose from, but there isn’t a ping or signal strength for any of the games. Once you’re connected to a game everything runs smoothly, but I had some random problems getting connected to games. There are five game modes that should be familiar to most players, including a PvE survival mode for those squeamish about taking on random opponents. The multiplayer is another deep well of content. You can also play the multiplayer game modes against bots if you’d like. Though ten missions might seem on the short side, there are around a hundred dogfight missions to play and unlock.

There is a story mostly told through comic book style scenes before missions. Namco’s console flight game, Ace Combat has a similar feel. ![]() This was a WW I flight simulator, but from what I can gleam it is only tangentially related to Air Superiority. An autopilot mode is included if you just don’t want to bother with anything other than the dog fights.Īir Superiority is a sequel to an earlier iOS game, Sky Gamblers: Rise of Glory. The wide variety of options is great you should be able to find something that suits your style of play. ![]() You use a few gestures for more advanced maneuvers, nothing more complex than a directional swipe. I was much happier with the arcade style controls, which use a virtual joystick. The default and simulator controls both rely on the accelerometer, which I found just weren’t all that comfortable. I will say that this puts out the same graphics as the PSP Vita or 3DS. The background and enemies don’t get quite the same level of detail, so though the iPad has more pixels than your HD TV, anyone who says this is better than a console game is exaggerating. The weather effects against the camera are also well detailed. Considering the default camera view is right behind the plane, they put a ton of detail and texture into the planes.

The single player campaign takes the player into a dark and grim future where air supremacy is all that prevents the world balance of power from collapsing. Rich combat mechanics and a spot-on balance between simulation and arcade make it accessible to all player types and allows for a personalized experience with varied control schemes and play styles.
