What players say

Players call it a short, charming helicopter simcade that scratches the SimCopter itch. The campaign takes about 3 hours and most find the missions easy, but many want more maps, helicopters, and difficulty. The flight model is praised for being approachable while still feeling like a helicopter, and it runs well on Steam Deck.
