Reviews for Spitfire 1940

[Glamdrung]

An excellent game

I really enjoyed the strategic aspects - allocating recruits, choosing where to defend (especially at the beginning where you don't have much intelligence). It was harrowing at times and receiving a lucky bonus (+10 pilots, double factory output) at the right time saved me; although towards the end I feel like I was only receiving negative bonuses (no new recruits, no factory output, etc.).

The first suggestion I would make is tying some of the positive/negative bonuses to what happens rather than just be random. During mid-game I successfully defended 4 areas from major attacks (losing a lot in the process) only to be hit with the negative morale - no new recruits. Such a defense should have produced some positive morale.

The other suggestion is the ability to build more and know more about my odds. I didn't really understand how big of a difference there was between the two planes and it seemed the more powerful plane go wiped out just as easily. As for building more - what about flak cannons (or other air defense) that would be restricted in the same sense of the pilots/spies (you cannot move it from where you build it).

The hints and tips button provides neither which is a disappointment.

I want to like this,

but how is it fun for the player to sit there and let them bomb your whole place while you try to build planes cause yours were shot down time and time again by an equal number of enemy planes. I really wanted to like this( It almost reminds you of Dino Park Tycoon from way back), but your mechanics are so broken it ruins the game.

Great concept

But it seems that whatever i do, always all my planes are shot down, that if i guess where the germans attack, and i just cant get enough planes fast enough. Needs some fixing, but has a lot of potential.

I dont get it.

I sent out all my fighters against the first wave. Everyone of my planes were shot down. Every day after that I could build at most one plane at a time and it was always shot down if I guessed the right spot.

If I guess wrong a few times I would get up to 4 spitfires and they were always shot down.

I just don't get it and don't feel like trying to.
