How it feels

Flying a tiny helicopter across the rust-coloured Martian surface feels serene and contemplative, with gentle physics and scenic photo opportunities.

What players say

Players enjoy flying a replica of the Ingenuity helicopter over real Jezero Crater terrain, but many note the sound and controls are rough. The game lacks VR controller support, requiring a gamepad or joystick, and some find the visuals bland. It is free since 2022, and long-time players want more content and polish.
