Air Control (Ad): Air Control: The New Standard in Mobile Gaming

In this simple, but very addictive Android Marketplace game you take on the job of an air traffic controller and varying aircraft of all different speeds enter your phones screen from all directions and you are required to draw a line to the landing zone with your finger all the while avoiding nasty game ending head on collisions. It starts out slow and then quickly speeds up upping the challenge. This game has quickly become my favorite game on the Marketplace and best of all the Ad version of this game is absolutely FREE! Spend hour upon hour trying to beat your own scores, or upload your best rounds to the online leaderboard and see where you stand with the games best mobile air traffic controllers.

In this addictive game there are only two maps to choose from, but you can play them in two very different ways. The first is called Cargo Game Mode and it is an addictive puzzle game in which each plane has a color and a dedicated landing zone on one of the maps three landing zones. Planes come from all sides of the screen and steadily pick up speed making it more difficult to land without colliding with other planes. The second is called Mismatch and in this unique game the color planes can land at any of the three landing zones, but at each there is a spinning color plane indicating what plane is allowed to land in that spot. This changes as the game goes on raising the difficulty. The two maps include Green Fields and Desert River. Green Fields is a simple landing zone located in a grass field with small trees and lakes. The landing zones are spotted on the right part of the screen including two optional landing zones and a helicopter pad. In Desert River there is a small stream and desert landscape with the same landing zones, but set toward the left side of the screen and in a different order. This changes the game and keeps the gamer interested

In my opinion I don’t have much more to ask for, but I did find myself after a full month of playing wishing for additional maps, planes, and game play. Since this game is free this is a small request and I would understand if the devs didn’t update this anytime soon. If there was a way to purchase additional maps I would be the first to throw down my credit card. This game could easily of asked for a few bucks and I am sure there would of been no complaints.


This game is very easy to get into and even includes a pause button and a fast forward for the first few rounds that you might want to quickly pass through.This chaotic puzzler in my opinion is what all mobile games should strive to be like. It is full of addictive gameplay, high scores to keep you challenged, gameplay designed for short or long gameplay, and most of all you can’t go wrong with it’s price tag. If you haven’t picked this game up already then it comes highly recommended from not just me, but many happy customers that took their time to rank this game and leave their comments.
