Fly Corp on PS5 was sent to me by Klabater, and I always appreciate that. The game itself is simple and straightforward. You start with one airport, and you connect to a different airport. As your plane travels back and forth, you earn money and unlock different places to connect flights.
There are different game modes. In Free play mode, there is no game over mode. In another, you have 3 minutes to unlock the next country ( don’t worry, this stacks; if you unlock one in a minute, you now have 5 minutes), but you can also lose by having your airport overflow. Upgrading planes and airports is essential. I would like to create a hub to let people connect to flights to multiple less-traveled cities. There is never enough money tp upgrade everything so being tactical is essential.
Fly Corp is basically the definition of easy to learn but hard to master, and the game is better for it. The controls take less than 3 minutes to learn, but the game gets pretty fast-paced. I don’t really know how else to describe the game except calling it a puzzle game, but that does not feel right either.
At $15, the game is fun to play and can be played as a quick time killer or for a couple of hours. The only real question is, does that time have any value? For me, the game was oddly relaxing, and I can’t explain why. It is a nice 7/10 experience. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
