Pilot Sports is a huge disappoint to me. I’ve been waiting for a game in this style for a while now and so to finally get something with the flaws that this game has feels a little bit like a “Monkey’s Paw” situation to me. If you’re thinking though “Hey I bet it’s at least pretty cheap”, I’m sorry to disappoint you again. The game is (currently) $34.99 on the Switch and $29.99 on the PS4 which is flatly outrageous.
I found myself listening to the music and enjoying myself with that over actually playing the game. Overall, Pilot Sports caused more frustration than fun. The graphics, music, and levels were well done. However, the controls were too sensitive to make it further in the game and there wasn’t much variety in the challenges.
Although Pilot Sports is not exactly bad, it is likewise far from compelling in its own right. Most of its best qualities are shared with the far more polished Pilotwings series, with its reliance on homage doing a considerable amount of damage. The content present is fine enough, but that, in itself, is a problem. Fine is not good. Pilot Sports is a below average flight simulator that might scratch that wholly unique Pilotwings itch, but only for so long.
