Air Conflicts: Secret Wars follows the story ace pilot Dorothy “DeeDee” Derbic as she, with the assistance of her friend and guardian Tommy Carter, attempts to solve the mystery behind the death of her father, a World War I pilot. Unfortunately for DeeDee, however, the truth that she seeks isn’t one that’s going to make itself apparent so easily and the looming threat of World War II isn’t exactly making her journey an easy one, either. Despite this, DeeDee is still determined to see things through even if that means participating in the war (something to which she was very much opposed) herself.
I’ve got to give credit where it’s due Secret Wars’ plot is fairly solid given the kind of game that it’s taking place within. Truth be told, I wasn’t actually expecting much of a plot at all, and I certainly wasn’t expecting it to take center stage as much as it did, but its inclusion still comes as a welcome surprise. Despite being a relatively simplistic aerial combat game, Secret Wars‘ plot actually gives meaning to what the player is doing. And, while the game might overdo it a tiny bit on the exposition here and there — there were a few times where the story carried on more than it needed to it still ends up helping the game much more than it hurts it.
Air Conflicts: Secret Wars is all about soaring high and fast through the skies, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise to hear that aerial combat is its bread and butter. Nearly every level within the game’s 49-stage campaign will plop players into a dogfight against increasingly numerous (and aggressive!) enemy plains through which players must fight their way out of. Mechanically speaking, Secret Wars performs in a very satisfactory manner. The controls are smooth and responsive, unlocking and getting the hang of new planes is fun, and taking down an enemy plane feels rewarding especially if they’ve been giving you trouble.
Aerial adversaries aren’t the only thing that Secret Wars throws at players, however; there’s plenty to contest with on the ground as well. Many levels also feature air-to-ground combat (it probably has a more official name, I’m sure), meaning that players will need to get good at picking out small target on the ground (most of which don’t move, fortunately), and will also need to work on their dive-bombing skills should they wish to level the competition. Interestingly enough, grounded enemies, despite generally being less dangerous than those with whom you’re sharing the sky, tend to be a little more difficult to take down. Because the game borrows semi-realistic plane mechanics, you’re not going to have a gun capable of contorting itself to pick out enemies below you; shooting at the ground means you’re flying toward the ground. And if you’re not good with distance and timing, it also means crashing into the ground. While, mechanically speaking, I once again don’t have much to complain about, I can’t help but feel that Secret Wars relied a little too much on this aspect. Having to constantly stop post, or even mid, dogfight just to start shooting at the ground isn’t terribly fun and it starts to get downright annoying after a while.
Air Conflicts: Pacific Carriers
As opposed to the other games in the Air Conflicts series that are set over various war-torn countries, Air Conflicts: Pacific Carriers takes place above the Pacific Ocean. You pilot a plane on the side of either US or Japanese air force during the second World War, taking off from the platform of an aircraft carrier far out to sea and take part in brutal dogfights far from land.
It is a simple enough premise, uncomplicated by character backstories or very much plot at all, really. You are either Axis or Ally, doing everything you can to shoot down the opposing planes. The game begins with some nice, easy missions to ease you into the controls. It’s incredibly easy to get the hang of.
The first mission is just to take off, to get safely off the runway and into the air above the water. You go on to take part in small battles with a handful of enemy planes. Each mission is a little more difficult than the last until, as you develop your piloting skills enough, you’ll end up commanding an entire squadron of planes against your foe.
Air Conflicts: Pacific Carriers is definitely a game that is enjoyable to look at. The movement of the planes in flight are realistic enough that it can be a little bit disorienting to watch if you’re not accustomed to this kind of sim. The oceans and clouds are beautifully rendered and the planes are designed to be historically accurate. The sepia cutscenes between missions, flickering as if projecting via vintage style film, are a lovely touch that gives the game a little extra charm and also grounds you in the game’s historical setting.
There isn’t a whole lot to the Air Conflicts: Pacific Carriers, but it is a decent arcade flight simulator, which is comfortably challenging and good to look at. Outside of the missions, it also has a multiplayer mode so you can take on your friends. For a simple afternoon mindlessly gunning planes out of the sky, you’re well covered with this game.
