Minor changes and bug fixes
Airplane Crash Madness is a physics-based arcade game that thrives on spectacular failure. It belongs to the 'launch' subgenre, where you hurl a vehicle forward and try to cause as much destruction as possible. It’s simple, mindless fun that works well for short sessions. Watching a plane tumble through a cityscape, shearing off wings and engines, is undeniably entertaining.
The upgrades are standard—more engine power, more boost, and more 'reward' multipliers. It doesn't have a lot of depth, and the gameplay loop is very repetitive, but as a visual spectacle and a quick stress-reliever, it does its job. It’s the kind of game you play for 10 minutes to see things blow up, and in that regard, it’s a success.
Spectacular physics-based crashes
Variety of unlockable aircraft
Multiple destructible environments
Satisfying 'crunch' sound effects
Simple one-tap controls
Watch the power meter and tap when it's at its peak. Once in the air, use your limited boost sparingly to hit high-value targets like skyscrapers or fuel tanks for maximum damage.
Start with small gliders and work your way up to massive commercial jets. Larger planes have more mass, causing significantly more damage and earning you more money per run.
Focus on hitting 'Explosive' barrels scattered in the levels; they cause a chain reaction that yields the highest damage scores.
Physics and graphics are okay but you cant expect much from a free mobile game. But they obviously don’t care about the ads they show because the game is rated for 9+ but some of the ads im seeing are very obviously not family friendly. If you consider letting a 9yo play this game consider the $5 premium or whatever its called. You have to watch an ad every 2-3 goes which for me usually last anywhere between 15-45 seconds each. Absolutely eats away at your phones battery so make sure a charger is near by. People that say the levels and vehicles don’t download have something wrong with their game because my stuff downloads just fine. I find each level kinda dumb by the fact that the fuel you worked so hard to level up on the last level becomes completely irrelevant in the new one. Another note on the physics is that they are goofy. Planes hitting the ground in real life:cronch. Planes hitting the ground in this game:boing. Also the amount of cash you get per run is very inconsistent one time you’ll get like $1,500 and the. Then you’ll do better and get $800. It’s kinda dumb.
Yes, too many ads and nothing downloads. But I just got addicted to it for whatever reason. Took 2 hours of closing it and reopening it after every few tries because it was faster than watching the ads but I have over $600k, Extra Cash is at level 217, Fuel is at level 151, and engine is at 101. I just wanted to get to the other side of the city. But there’s an invisible wall that blocks you at the mountains. It was very underwhelming, at first, until you find out you can go over it to find an invisible platform you can land on. My best is 1850m but you’ll fall off the map after that. Please fix the downloadable content issue so we can play on other maps, looking forward to exploring.
First, the ads are so numerous that I would recommend pay the $4.99 to remove ads so that the game is even remotely enjoyable. And it is enjoyable for the first world (there are 4 worlds at the time of this review). The graphics and physics are nice, the gameplay is fun, and the upgrades provide a rewarding progression. However, once you’re at world 2, you’ve upgraded so much that you don’t earn enough in-game money after each attempt to afford an upgrade. And when you save up enough to finally buy an upgrade, it hardly improves your attempts. The only way to make meaningful progress at this point is to use REAL money to buy large amounts of diamonds to buy the upgrades directly in the store. There are other reward mechanics in the game, but they only unlock cars and cosmetics, which don’t do much to help you progress through the levels. I won’t lie: I had a lot of fun in World 1. However, I have to warn any potentially buyers that once you beat World 1 (which took me a few hours), it’s a money trap.
After playing two or three rounds which take about 45 seconds each, you are forced to watch an ad every time, which in itself is 30-45 seconds until you can dismiss it. If you can stomach half of your “game” time by watching insipid ads and manage to beat the first world, the second world will never download. It will say “no internet” even though you’ve been inundated with ads using that same internet for this whole time. If you do want to pay the $4.99 to skip ads and “unlock” content such as all the vehicles and worlds, you can’t use any of those worlds or vehicles because it will either continue to say “no internet” for the worlds, or will simply not download any of the vehicles. Even if it would download the other vehicles, you can’t access them because the app has a glitch where you can’t scroll through the choices of vehicles. So all in all this game is simply a worthless grab for money and ad revenue made by someone who clearly had no idea how to make a functional mobile game.
At first glance the game was fine, but as I progressed, the game became extremely glitchy. After finishing a flight my plane would disappear and I’d have to log out. The system also continues to say “no internet” so it won’t let me download my new things I’ve unlocked. Keep in mind my internet is 500 MGPS. So, it’s not my internet. Not even possible. I tried turning the game to lower def to help the issue but to no avail. Moreover, the adds are RIDICULOUS. So time consuming and extended, that you’re forced to pay the $5 just to turn them off. They even run right after you play, regardless of using them to double your bonuses or not. To the devs- please make a fix or something to help this issue bc it’s horrible. The glitching and the crashing mid game is just making this not worth playing.
I’ve been sitting here playing it for hours trying to see if it gets better but it doesn’t and I was so excited to play this game too. I’ve upgraded my gas at least 60 times now and it gives me an extra second of propulsion, there’s no controlling the plane. You just fly forward with your 2 seconds of gas, watch an add, upgrade you’re plane with 0 noticeable changes to it, do the same course again and somehow don’t even go as far because with that 2 levels of gas it gave you just enough to hit a slightly different part of the land that will just make your plane lose all logic of physics where instead of flying forward once it hits the ground it will just bounce directly left and up and you’ll cover 300 ft of land when the last run I did I got 410. Tldr, you don’t actually progress, you can’t control the plane, physics don’t work in a frustrating way.
The game can be a lot of fun, I mean that in the sense that it has potential to be a lot of fun. Whether its from a vast majority of things being locked behind a premium pass, keep in mind that its more like a subscription you have to keep buying to maintain it, not like most free to play games where they ask you to buy a one time thing that instantly makes the game better. The other is the criminal amount of adds you have to watch, and ofcourse it only starts happening once youve put in amount a good bit of time, so theyre hoping that you crack and pay for no adds. I only write this because its a shame when you see potential for a fun time but its literally squeezed for money every turn you take.
This game is basically a pay-to-play type of an app, there are ads every 3 launches and in order to unlock most of the game content as well as stop all these ads, you have to pay 5$ a week (20$ a month!?)… Usually I don’t write reviews but this time I had to say it out there…. Who would pay 20$ a month for a mobile game?! Are you serious guys! There’s already so many ads in the app itself and they still try to milk your money by locking pretty much most of the game content up unless you pay 5 a week…. Example: even if you unlock everything that is available without premium, you still won’t get the plane… great potential for a huge mobile game has been thrown away to trash due to the fact that the developers are hungry for money instead of seeing the bigger vision….
