    Rogue Aces may not be as clever or innovative as the excellent Don't Die, Mr. Robot! but it does provide addictive roguelike dogfights that'll keep you coming back for more. Just make sure you have plenty of patience before giving it a download.

    An interesting proposal that manages to be different than any other game in its genre while still being fun. It's a shame that the fun doesn't last longer.

    Rogue Aces can be an entertaining blast and is sufficiently different from the competition to be worth a look. But its repetitive nature does it no favours and means it’s best taken in small doses.

    Sadly, though, you'll spend more time fighting the controller than the enemies on screen. [June 2018, p.88]

    Campaign: you have one life but 3 planes, keep going as long as you possibly can (hint theres a 100+ missions)
    Frontline: One plane and one life, but WHEN you die, you restart from the last island you took. There’s also mission timer, you have to get to the boss island and beat the final boss in a set amount of time.
    Hot Potato: your plane will explode in 8 seconds… get into another as soon as it does.
    Survival: one life, one plane… survive as long as possible (hint – hot potato)

    Imagine if you will an Angel on one shoulder and a demon on the other, and the demon just keeps whispering “one more game, do a little better, beat that score and best everyone else”, while the angel is saying “but you’re a brain surgeon, people will die if you don’t go to work”. All I can say is people will die, and scores will be beaten.

    I love it!
