Pocket Planes Game Review

This iPhone and iPad app takes place in real time, so when you see a plane will reach its destination in four hours, that’s four hours in the real world. For this reason (and for financial reasons), you’ll want to keep a lot of planes running different routes, ensuring you always have someone around to fill new jobs that appear. This also means this free app for the iPad is a game of waiting, since you won’t always have tasks to complete or cargo to load up. But you know the drill: set the game down, do something else, then come back for more.

There’s a lot of things going on in this app for the iPad and iPhone. This game includes simulation, strategy, and then there’s the world that you’ve created and the people you might have interacted with along the way. While it’s probably true that the game’s mechanics will only keep your interest for so long, there’s a lot about this app to lie. More importantly, though, this game for the iPhone and iPad is just plain simple fun; game enjoyment does not have to be about spectacular graphics and game play.

Overall we found this free game for the iPad and iPhone to be simple yet fun.
