  • Overall, Aces of the Luftwaffe: Squadron is a fun shoot-em-up that provides enjoyment for a short while: just don’t expect much else from it.

  • It may be unspectacular, but there will be many who’ll fall under Aces of the Luftwaffe – Squadron‘s charm. It’s colourful and challenging, has enough depth to keep you going back for more, and you can play it with friends. It’s a shame that there’s no online multiplayer and that the story is a bit of a dud, but they’re not deal breakers.

  • With America’s future in your hands, I never wanted the action-packed mayhem in Aces of the Luftwaffe: Squadron to end. Bursting with character and more than enough enemies to mercilessly shoot from the skies, it is in the skill trees that let players tweak the pilots to match their own playstyle and the chance to recruit your friends as wingmen that it scores the most success.

  • There were a few framerate drops along the way and some relatively lengthy load times, but ultimately these are minor complaints when talking about how great the overall experience is.

  • Aces of the Luftwaffe - Squadron provides plenty of action as you do the standard thing of shooting anything onscreen while avoiding getting hit yourself, and variety is provided by squadron's various troubles and the optional side missions. It's fairly easy to begin with, but the challenge steadily increases as you progress without being too difficult - as long as you keep upgrading your skills, that is.

  • For all those out there able to gather three or even just one or two more players for long enough to see the full experience through to the end, however, it turns out to be a memorable piece of software, and an enjoyable experience that, who knows, may bring the band of playmates back together for more beyond the scope of the single adventure.

  • Aces of the Luftwaffe -Squadron is a shoot 'em up that does many things right.Its difficulty curve is balanced;it has enough mechanics and systems to be interesting without becoming bloated;and, finally, a healthy amount of charm as well. It may not particularly excel above other games of its kind, but it's still worth checking out if a fan of the genre.

  • Really, there's not much else to say here. Aces of the Luftwaffe: Squadron tries to go its own way in a crowded genre, but it fails to light that proverbial fire. Surviving a constant barrage of enemy fire is supposed to be thrilling, but it's just not the case here. Even during the most intense shoot-outs, some will find it hard to stay awake. All in all, this shmup is tough to connect with, let alone enjoy.

  • At first glance, Aces of the Luftwaffe – Squadron doesn’t seem to be much more than a solid shoot ‘em up with a cartoonish art style. It does add some little twists to the formula though, and, despite its minor performance issues, it delivers a fun arcade experience that fits perfectly on a handheld, and gets better with friends.

  • Donde si se aprecia un incremento exagerado es a la hora de enfrentar a los cinco jefes finales de cada episodio, que nos pondrán las cosas verdaderamente difíciles con picos de intensidad bastante altos, que se desmarcan de las misiones estándar que no suelen suponer un problema. Quizás aquí se podría achacar un mayor equilibrio. ¡Pero que no se diga!
