WINGS - 1990 : AMIGA<br />

ALSO PORTED TO GAME BOY ADVANCE, CALLED WINGS ADVANCE.<br />

Set in the time of WW1, Wings had<br />

the look and feel of an early silent<br />

movie with cut screens helping<br />

with the storyline. Most of the flying<br />

saw you sitting in your cockpit<br />

while the scenery changed as<br />

you flew. The graphics were good<br />

for the time and after each mission<br />

a score board would show<br />

how things were progressing in<br />

the war. Other missions saw you<br />

flying from a more isometric view<br />

as you flew along blasting the enemy.<br />

The game has good reviews<br />

from the press and is still ranked<br />

as one of the best Amiga games<br />

to be released. In 2014 a Wings!<br />

Remastered edition has been released<br />

for Windows, Mac and Android.<br />
