Gary Green said: Not all games are expensive ‘AAA’ epics. Tempting as it is to give coverage exclusively to big-budget titans, there are times when I’d rather use the opportunity to spread awareness of an unsung hero. Whilst Wing of Darkness has its fair share of imperfections, they never stop the experience being breathtakingly beautiful. It’s a game that’s exceptionally clever with its budget as it cuts back on non-essential elements and runtime to deliver something more mechanically refined and visually impressive.
Wing of Darkness is an emotionally driven, compelling story in ok mecha game. Stan reviews the game to see if its worth picking up.
VGChartz's Thomas Froehlicher: "As much as I like the general atmosphere and story in Wing of Darkness, it's really very short and lacks a certain balance and refinement. It offers a cool aerial battle experience, and it's not as if the genre is bursting with rival candidates, but you might want to think twice about the content-to-price ratio before jumping in."
