Bomber Crew

I once got this game for free around 2021 in a Humble Bundle, I played it a lot back then and I absolutly loved it, I just did not managed to finish the last mission after which I didn't really continue and moved on to other games. But on the day that I am writing this review (4th of March 2026) I picked up the game again because I saw it pop up several times online and instantly finished the last mission (you can actually see the massive date gap in my achievements because the final mission grands you an achievement as well) and I fell in love with this game again and I started the USAAF DLC whilst I was at it since I had not even touched that one yet. I love the artstyle I love the gameplay and it is worth for me to fall in love with it again.

Trully unique game with a lovely design and easy to get-around controls, would recommend it.

Played the tutorial and thought, this is okay. I don't really like the camera controls and the constant micro management of basics, but this could be fun. Played the actual first mission and the difficulty spike is massive. Suddenly I am getting attacked by lots of other planes and my systems are getting shot out and some of my crew is wounded and dying. The UI spams me about healing the wounded crew, but doesn't bother to explain how. I try clicking on the med kit, then clicking on the wounded person, but my crew member just climbs on top of the medical crate. My plane is now on fire. I have one of my crew grab the fire extinguisher and he successfully puts the fire out, but my wounded crew keep counting down to death while various crew members take turns wandering around and planking on the med bay or trying to repair things or reload ammo (another thing that was not explained). Meanwhile I continue getting shot up while the UI spams me about untagged fighters. There is no pause feature. I don't mind difficult games, but at least introduce me to the basic mechanics and ease me into the concepts before throwing me into the deep end. I am sure there is a way to have fun with this, but the awful tutorial and controls don't make me want to stick around to figure it out.

Bought this game on release back in 2017 and completed the campaign a few times over the years. Picked it up again a few days ago and the only things that I could say that would improve the game is some kind of workshop support as well as more risky high altitude missions (Flak, AA, and the mid to low level fighters should be able to attack you at high altitude). Though I doubt these will ever be added since the devs have moved on to other games like Space Crew and Badlands Crew. As for the DLC's they are pretty good as well, the USAAF DLC is good in my opinion mainly because its a brand new campaign in a completely different theater of the war. The B17 is enjoyable to fly, could use some more missions though. Secret weapons is great, at least for the way that I play the game, the thermal flight suits are a very easy way to fly mid to high altitude missions in the early game and the 20mm cannons are insanely good against any plane, though putting them on the bottom of the plane works best to get rid of the two engine fighters that can get below you. Overall its a 9.5 out of 10 if I had to rate it on that scale, doesn't get old despite how many times I've played it over the years and the missions don't disappoint because there is always a different outcome at the end.

挺无聊的游戏，游戏内容就是指挥飞行员在飞机里去做各种事，飞到指定地点轰炸完成任务，获得奖励后升级飞机和飞行员然后一直循环。 你只需要做两件事，用移动鼠标瞄准锁定和按按钮，飞机操作和你没有太大关系的。 比如飞机飞行时你不能亲自操控，飞机飞行方向对比目的地是歪的，你只能不断用观测镜瞄准系统每隔一段时间给的导航点，然后飞行员就会自动控制飞机往导航点校准飞行。 敌人来了也是用观测镜瞄准一下，锁定后坐在炮手座位上的飞行员就会自动攻击敌人。偶尔飞机设备损坏失火，就指挥队员走来走去修修东西灭灭火。 想让飞机加速，加强火力或者做特技飞行躲避子弹？也是按一下飞行员的技能按钮，然后飞行员就会自动操作。 玩家作为核心，可以说完全没有参与感，明明是最累的那个，结果看起来是最摸鱼的人。 最糟糕的如果你的飞机不幸坠机了，所有的升级项就白费了，飞机和飞行员都必须从头开始升级，沉没成本也太大了。 我玩到全成就了也不知道这个游戏有趣的地方在哪里，所幸全成就并不需要买DLC，制作组虽然游戏做的一般但好在有良心。

this is such a fun game. i really enjoy the cartoony style and fun missions, and how you can change your crew members names.

Very good game sadly just doesnt get updates anymore but its rlly fun if you wanna play it as it allows you to customize your crew with names and such and its just rlly fun overall

Looks like a chill game but either i have a skill issue or this isnt a casual game cuz i cant do this xd
