Plot

The player controls a female pilot named Dorothy Derbec, nicknamed DeeDee, who is trying to solve the death of her father, Guillaume Derbec. Alongside with her friends Tommy Carter and Clive, the players progress through the game. From Tobruk to Russia to the Balkans and finally to Berlin, Tommy and Clive both die while progressing. In the Berlin campaign, she finds out that one friend killed her father in WW1 because her father couldn't stand watching bombers drop chemical gas on a village. While progressing, the player unlocks airplanes, ranging from classics such as the Spitfire to experimental planes like the Horten Ho 229.

Reception

The Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and Windows versions of the game both received "mixed or average reviews" according to the review aggregator Metacritic.[3][4][5]
