Ratings and Reviews
Very good game but…Is there a sequel coming?
This game is probably one of the best games I’ve ever played, I have to admit the older versions were more challenging since I would accidentally do something on landing that would get my pilots killed by the overall gameplay was alright and pretty good at certain points. If there’s ever a part 2 or something to this game, the ability to switch out your spitfire for a P-40 should be a feature instead of something that only really happened in one mission (If I recall correct it has been a while since I’ve played). We should also get load out customization if possible, instead of just taking missiles (or rockets whatever they are called in game) we should have some sort of other payload we can carry and use against enemies.

Hey, thank you!
I'm afraid I don't have the same amount of free time I had in the past, so I won't promise anything.
It would be great to add the things you mentioned though.
Review
As a ww2 history fan I see that most of the story can be related to real life events, the part of training would take place during the first 6 months of the war, known as the sitzkreig, next would be the Battle of Britain, and finally the Italian Invasion takes place in the final mission, the devs use the spitfire and Bf-109 as the main aircraft, in a few mission you can find P-40s or MC-202s, but most of the information is accurately displayed throughout the game, but in a way that everything is balanced and the battle goes to the more skilled. I love this game and my recruits in it, the story makes you connect to them, and as I have found, use loopholes to keep them alive. One of my favourite games.

Wonderful reviews like this one are one of the reasons I love creating games.
Needless to say you got every detail right about the story and the aircrafts. :-)
Thank you for taking the time to write this.
Best Game I’ve Found?
I’ll get right to the point. Most apps on here are corporate. Flashy and polished with an animated trailer that looks better than the actual game. They’re designed to make money. They feel cold and hollow. Wings of Heroes is the exact opposite. This is a passion project, made by a small designer, with a vision for a fun and challenging game. The little details, the historical accuracy, the hand crafted levels, everything feels so human. I wish I could give 6 Stars. If you like WWII, flying, or just great games, do yourself a favor and download this. Support these creators. These are the types of apps we need to celebrate. Truly a hidden Gem.

Doing games in a different way is not easy nor trendy these days.
But when a player understands what you're trying to do, it warms you inside the heart.
Thanks for your words, they really mean a lot to us.
