Pocket Planes from NimbleBit is a unique type of airline sim as you try and manage a cargo of planes. You begin with just a few planes, but as the game progresses you can unlock jumbo jets and move from small towns to large cities. Unlike other sim games, it requires strategy and a large world to explore.

Unlike other airline games, Pocket Planes isn’t too difficult, and you can have a lot of fun without needing to purchase any IAPs. As you might expect, the objective is to take people to different locations, and on certain occasions you also have to fly some cargo. Basically you are some sort of tycoon who has to buy airplanes and airports, and you also have to upgrade your fleet.

As you fly people and cargo successfully, you will earn money that will allow you to upgrade your fleet and expand your destinations. Pocket Planes is pretty easy to pick up, and it’s easy to see what pieces of cargo to get and where people should go. You can see planes flying. If you play RPG games you will like the RPG elements. As you make more money, you’ll be able to pay for bigger airplanes.

Pocket Planes is very addictive, and the longer you play the closer you will come to building that mega airport in France or New York. The game also frequently rewards players, so you don’t have to keep waiting for the money to come. Finally, Pocket Planes is very cheery and is just plain fun.
