2D Game Ariplane Wars 1942

Reflexes carry you through the first few stages of an action game. After that, you need to read the room. Where the enemies come from, how long an attack animation takes, when to retreat. The pace rarely lets up, and health is always a little scarcer than you would like. Sessions are tense in a good way, and victory tends to arrive just as your hands start to ache.

• Use mobile touch or mouse to control your aircraft

1. 1Spend the first stage moving constantly and watching enemy patterns rather than trying to win quickly.
2. 2Use dodge or jump to break out of a corner. Being surrounded is the most common cause of a game over.
3. 3Time your attacks for when an enemy has just finished theirs; most action games leave a gap there.
4. 4Keep health pickups in reserve when you can, and grab them only when a bar is actually low.
