Crowntakers was awesome. Hmm Luciano1084 Well-Known Member May 8, 2014 1,515 0 36 #4 Luciano1084, Apr 29, 2015 Agreed.. The reviews on steam are kind of mixed for this one.. Hopefully someone will post impressions soon.. I'm definitely intrigued ## PeteOzzy Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2013 4,596 3 0 Norwich, England #5 PeteOzzy, Apr 29, 2015 Yeah, Kalypso are a great developer with a lot of games in their portfolio that I've enjoyed. I didn't actually know this was coming to iOS, fans of the original Amiga game will probably love this. It had pretty good reviews on PC with an 11:1 ratio of positive to negative on Steam so shows a lot of promise. I haven't actually played the original or remastered version though, so can't say anything about how it plays, sorry. Luciano1084 Well-Known Member May 8, 2014 1,515 0 36 #6 Luciano1084, Apr 29, 2015 Yeah, mostly positive reviews but some were pretty off putting.. I'm taking the plunge on this one later today.. Love crowntakers so I've got faith this one is pretty good as well ## LordShad0wz Well-Known Member Nov 19, 2014 4,280 1 38 #7 LordShad0wz, Apr 29, 2015 Hi all, I played the original wings using MSDOS eons ago and I do have the remastered steam version. I can tell you it's pretty fun. If you die in the game you die forever. So don't die lol I wonder how they did the touch controls. I'll be interested if anyone takes the plunge. I might buy it. Billy badmanj Well-Known Member Mar 16, 2009 1,886 24 38 Software developer Reading, England http://www.underground-collective.com #8 badmanj, Apr 29, 2015 I loved the original - the lovely music and the wonderfully touching storyline. Hope this does the original title justice... VirtualBoyFreak Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Apr 26, 2011 4,801 85 48 Spain #9 VirtualBoyFreak, Apr 29, 2015 I searched Metacritic for this one. The image attached is of the PC version, but imps are a mixed bag. I'll wait for some reviews before deciding on this one. EDIT: image didn't attach # it got a 61/100, with 6 reviews: 1 positive, 4 mixed, 1 negative. Also, 15 user reviews with 7.3/10 average score. badmanj Well-Known Member Mar 16, 2009 1,886 24 38 Software developer Reading, England http://www.underground-collective.com #10 badmanj, Apr 29, 2015 Bought and downloading now - unfortunately I just noticed they've re-scored the music for this, so the original lovely sound track may be lost. I just hope they simply improved the old music rather than entirely rewriting it. Bloodangel Well-Known Member Jan 19, 2011 1,824 46 48 Retail England #11 Bloodangel, Apr 29, 2015 Yeah I'm also an original wings player... Great game. Hope this is the same. Maybe some people are negative as they rating it towards modern game releases.. And not against the original wings. I can understand if they never played wings before and was comparing to recent releases as it won't seem a very upto date game. But if they played original and compare it to that, then should give a more fair review/rating coccodrillo Well-Known Member Dec 4, 2012 51 0 0 #12 coccodrillo, Apr 29, 2015 What a flashback looking at the images! How is the gameplay? badmanj Well-Known Member Mar 16, 2009 1,886 24 38 Software developer Reading, England http://www.underground-collective.com #13 badmanj, Apr 29, 2015 Not had a chance to play yet - will do shortly. I did just fire it up though, and sadly it seems the developers don't know how to make the screen auto-rotate, so on the ipad, at least, it's a bit awkward to play with a smart-cover on. I hope they figure this out - it should be standard functionality with any app really.

Wings! I played the original to DEATH on my Amiga 500 way back in the day. On nostalgia alone, I made the purchase and will hope for the best. The game is downloading as I write this post. I will post back later! Wings! WOW! UPDATE: The game just installed on my iPhone 6 Plus a few minutes ago, and I couldn't resist a quick try. Firstly, the graphics are nicely updated from the original. The game starts the exact same way as the original and includes the same music. I just created a pilot, assigned some skill points and started the tutorial. I only busted the initial balloon, but the touch controls seem fine thus far (they are inverted and I have yet to check whether that can be changed). The game supports touch *and* tilt controls. Looks nicely updated, but I will give it a thorough run-through tonight. At this point, I need to head home from the office. Catch y'all later! --DotComCTO LordShad0wz Well-Known Member Nov 19, 2014 4,280 1 38 #16 LordShad0wz, Apr 29, 2015 Guys, Get this! I bought it and just played 2 missions. It's freaken fantastic! They put both on screen and gyroscopic controls. The graphics are crisp. Not a single crash. The original gameplay elements are there ! Strafing is still tough as hell and after what 20 years I still suck at it lol. No iap. No ads. One low price. Good programming quality. No lag. I'm using the IPhone 5s running iOS 8.3 Going back in. This is great! Billy NOEN Well-Known Member Jul 31, 2012 3,245 0 0 U.S. #17 NOEN, Apr 29, 2015 Wasn't there some sort of Wing's game released not too long ago? slamraman Well-Known Member Patreon Gold Aug 27, 2011 2,511 8 38 #18 slamraman, Apr 30, 2015 Yep - Amiga emulated Version was released last year. That one had controller support whilst this one doesn't. Only had a quick shot to see if there was MFi support but I liked what I say. Updated Version of a Classic. NOEN Well-Known Member Jul 31, 2012 3,245 0 0 U.S. #19 NOEN, Apr 30, 2015 I thought so. I just checked and it looks like it had some control issues when it was released. I've never played Wings. I've always been a console gamer, so I've missed out on a LOT of good PC games. Downloading this one now. Let's see what I've been missing. I BETTER not be disappointed guys!! Hehe LordShad0wz Well-Known Member Nov 19, 2014 4,280 1 38 #20 LordShad0wz, Apr 30, 2015 Don't be upset when you get reprimanded for your crappy strafing. It's very difficult to do. I still suck at it lol. I hope you enjoy it it was one of those old games that remind you of how things were before micro transactions. I have to say the team that brought it to IOS really knew what they were doing. Billy (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
