Sky Force Reloaded is a game released by Infinite Dreams Inc. Paying homage to the classic and original 1979 “Asteroid,” Sky Force Reloaded combines traditional gameplay with new-age, modern 3D graphics, futuristic sound effects, and popular card collecting traits which make it an excellent game for both old-school gamers and those fresh out of the crib alike.

With two different styles of control available, gameplay can suit various player preferences and screen sizes. The default and the most comfortable option is the touch/hold and maneuver option, where the ship will continuously fire and fly in synchronicity to the subtle directional changes of your finger. Releasing and not touching the screen will put the game into a slow mode which can provide a welcomed break now and then to gather bearing or flex your finger.

Sky Force Reloaded: General Hints and Tips

  • Save your stars

Do not spend stars on upgrade times. It is far, far better to wait and save your stars. This is essential to virtually every freemium game, yet it still needs to be reinstated. Stars are the primary currency of the game and, as such, should be used with the utmost efficiency.

  • Rinse and Repeat

Apparently, the primary goal of finishing a mission, no matter how it is done, is first and foremost, but once doing so, replay missions to try to complete each objective to get the maximum rewards possible. Finishing a mission with all the challenges completed will unlock the ‘Hard’ (and insane) mode, which spawns much higher star bonuses. Enemy ships also follow a pre-determined route that does not change and thus can be learned and be taken advantage of… hence, rinse and repeat.

  • Take it slow

It is virtually impossible to complete all objectives in each mission, so as hinted at above, focus on one particular mission and grind that out until completion and then move on to the next. As a rule of thumb, try rescuing all humans first, then focus on defeating all enemies, and lastly, once accustomed to the level, take no damage.

  • Upgrade as fast as possible

Different flying techniques may suit other players better, so try to identify whether offensive or defensive upgrades will help them most and focus on either of the two. That said, however, upon strengthening, attention should be quickly diverted to the magnet feature, which will draw the star closer to your ship automatically which, allows players to focus more on other targets and incoming attacks while still gaining as many stars as possible.

  • Play pseudo pause

By releasing your finger and not touching the screen, the game will slow down and can provide a chance to visually scroll the screen for incoming attacks, possibly pick-ups, and allow players to plot a course and carve out that perfect run!

  • Don’t give up

One of the most significant attributes of Sky Force Reloaded is that it is tough to complete a mission on the first attempt! As frustrating as this is, it also adds prestige and depth to the game that many other arcade games don’t have. Therefore, don’t get despaired; with a bit of practice, patterns can be read, and objectives can be completed efficiently.
