Rockets are so difficult to use that the game provides a how-to guide on a loading screen still, the only tactic that the I found effective was the one the enemies use, which is charging head-on in a game of aerial chicken, letting loose a rocket at the last minute. Bombs help with taking out ground targets, though they require a lot of precision to use properly, and you can generally strafe targets as well. Shooting down planes is satisfying, and dogfights can get intense when there’s dozens of planes around. The air combat, on its own, is decently fun. The rest of the cast are better, but inconsistent art and the annoying tendency for dialogue to temporarily remove your displays makes it less enjoyable. Deedee’s voice acting is downright atrocious, with a lame French accent (how she kept this despite being raised by a very-accented Englishman, I’m not sure) and all the emotional expression of a propeller. That’s really all there is to say about the story there’s political intrigue, spunky resistance fighters, stereotypical British men with moustaches, and none of it really feels like it matters. The game follows the exploits of freelance flier, booze smuggler, and stereotypical girl pilot Dorothy “Deedee” Derbec, as she flies the skies of Europe during the last few years of the Second World War. Air Conflicts: Secret Wars is such a case. However, there are also cases where you have a variety of things to do – and none of them, except one, are actually fun. Despite popular jokes about MMOS, people generally don’t enjoy doing the same thing over and over again. Variety is generally a good thing in games.
