90/100

SimplePlanes is an incredible achievement in mobile simulation, offering a level of creative freedom usually reserved for desktop PCs. It’s essentially a digital sandbox where you can build almost anything that flies, drives, or floats. The brilliance lies in its 'easy to learn, hard to master' building system. You can snap parts together to make a basic plane in minutes, but the deep physics engine means you’ll spend hours tweaking wing shapes and engine placement to achieve stable flight.

The community aspect is what truly gives the game infinite longevity. The ability to download thousands of user-created crafts—from realistic replicas of fighter jets to giant mechanical dragons—is staggering. The physics simulation is robust, accounting for lift, drag, and weight distribution. While it can be intimidating at first, the satisfaction of seeing a craft you designed from scratch finally take off is unparalleled. It’s a must-have for any aviation enthusiast or creative mind.

Maintenance Update


Build airplanes by snapping parts together, designing wing sections, and attaching engines. At any time, you can strap yourself into the cockpit and see how it flies with realistic physics. If you're not in the mood for building, over 250,000 airplanes are available to download for free.

BUILD AIRPLANES

You have the tools you'll need to bring any airplane to life. Snap parts together to build your airplane's body. Place engines to add thrust. Design and attach wings and then strap yourself into the cockpit and see how it flies.

DOWNLOAD AIRPLANES

Over 250,000 airplanes are available to download for free from SimplePlanes.com. Find anything from old WW2 bombers to next-generation fighters to sci-fi spacecraft. You can upload your own airplanes and rise through the ranks from a bronze builder to a gold level builder.

DYNAMIC FLIGHT MODEL

Flight simulation at its finest. Every little change you make in the designer impacts how the airplane flies. Weight distribution, thrust, lift, and drag are all calculated continuously while flying. Parts can break off in spectacular fashion while flying due to over-stress or by hitting something. The fun won't stop there though. You can keep on flying even with a missing wing if you've got the skills.

SANDBOX MODE

Use all available parts to build airplanes with no restrictions. The sky is the limit. Literally.

CHALLENGES

Climb into the cockpit of one of your custom aircraft and see how it does in the challenges. Land on aircraft carriers, dodge surface-to-air missiles, race through courses, and so much more.

EDUCATIONAL

Tutorials will help players learn the basics of real airplane design and the considerations that need to be taken when airplanes are made.
