81/100

Wings of Glory is a fantastic digital conversion of the beloved WWI tabletop dogfight game. It captures the 'knights of the air' aesthetic perfectly, with colorful biplanes and a tactical movement system that feels elegant yet deep. Instead of twitch reflexes, this game is about outmaneuvering your opponent by planning your cards a few moves ahead.

The challenge missions are a highlight, forcing you to think outside the box to complete reconnaissance or take down specific aces with limited resources. The ability to recruit famous pilots and expand your hangar with historically accurate planes like the Fokker D.VII adds a great sense of progression. It’s a niche title, but for fans of strategic wargaming or aviation history, it’s an absolute must-play that looks great on both tablets and phones.
