Summary
Similar to the popular “Strike” series, this chopper combat title is yet another Army Men title set to invade your home. Now you can fly your little green plastic army through the skies in a brand new set of missions.
Let me start by saying how strangely simple this title is. Many chopper titles have a tendency to be very tricky, due to the handling mechanics. But here, the controls are pleasantly simple. The ease of use factor here allowed 3DO to compose highly challenging levels. Levels that begin easily soon become a great challenge as the learning curve becomes steeper. Levels are designed such that you are given an objective, which when completed, allows you to make your way to the exit. Be warned though, the tanned army are present, and they will do anything to prevent your success. The tanned army are in action wherever you go. A large part of this title involves your ability to manoeuvre quickly in order to avoid those deadly weapons.
Air Attack’s simple nature makes this a fun title to play. Don’t take Army Men: Air Attack too seriously, they are plastic after all.
