    It's a fun game. A bit simple, but well worth the price of the game. check it out

    Hands down the best spaceship shooter I’ve ever played. The graphics are modern but the gameplay is classic vertical shooter. The upgrade system is not overly complicated either. There is a grind to progress in the story, but I find that fun!!!

    This game looks really good. It plays...okay; nothing great, nothing terrible. However, the slow, slow grind to get through it completely destroys the experience. It's like it's still a free to play game with the developers forcing you to spend stars instead of actually enjoying yourself. It also becomes very boring once your ship gets more powerful as earlier levels become super easy -This game looks really good. It plays...okay; nothing great, nothing terrible.

It's like it's still a free to play game with the developers forcing you to spend stars instead of actually enjoying yourself. It also becomes very boring once your ship gets more powerful as earlier levels become super easy - but you still have to go through them again and again to get all the medals. Real shame since it could have been solid, but the grind makes it a complete nightmare. Avoid.… Expand

    Not ideal port. Loading times are quite long. And for some unexplainable reason there is no restart button after unsuccesfull run. Which is very unpleasant on its own but combine it with long loading scenes and need for grind and you get really tedious experience. This one tiny feature which is present in every game (restart button) makes game quite unpleasant to play

    Absolute belter - classic old school vertical schmup with beautiful graphics and the level up system is addictive as hell as every time you play you get progressively more powerful, at £8.99 its bargain of the decade - lovely. 10/10 easily.

    If you are looking for the best old school shooter on the Switch then look no further. This game is brilliant in all facets. It is polished, deep, rewarding, and fun! The devs went all out on this game and it shows.

    Sky Force: Reloaded was a game that truly surprised me. Despite being several years old, everything feels modern and polished. While it can be challenging, it never deterred me from playing thanks to brilliant design choices that kept me motivated rather than frustrated. It’s an easy game to recommend and one that I see coming back to for a long time to come.

    Sky Force Reloaded offers your standard arcade shooting fair, but it doesn't do a lot that your old NES was't capable of. That's not a bad thing if vertical SHMUPS are your thing, of course.

    Sky Force Reloaded is a great game from the arcade times. And now it’s playable on the Switch. Prepare to go in a bullet hell full of challenges. You’ll get the most fun out of it with two players, but the game gives you a fair challenge when playing alone.
