Flight simulations are in abundance, and until now the work performed by an Air Traffic Controller has gone unnoticed in videogames. Sitting in that tower, talking over radio and swapping cards representing planes, it's a wonder why this high pressure job never found a publisher before. You won't be surprised to learn that Air Traffic Chaos originates from Japan, where a monkey wearing a sombrero and shaking maracas is considered sane enough to release on a console.
N-Philes writes: "Let me begin by telling you that I'm not like most people. I have a strange obsession with airports and subways or any form of transportation that carries a large mass of people. I'm sure there are a few people out there that feel the same way; whether they enjoy seeing how people from different locations interact or the excitement of taking off in an airplane for the first time. Air Traffic Chaos does not capture many of these emotions for people like myself, nor does it try to. It does prove to be a realistic air traffic control simulation as viewed from a larger standpoint."
AATG:
"With 5 airports to choose from, a maximum of 4 inbound, 4 outbound flights, varying weather conditions, multiple airlines and 3 difficulties ranging from rookie to novice to expert, it's hardly a feature packed title. And while each individual airport ramps up the difficulty by adding extra runways, different types of flights, or even unexpected scenarios like planes that need towing, the game appears at first glance to be lacking in the longevity department. Yet somehow, I've been playing this every night before sleep for a good few weeks. And whether that's because it sends me to sleep because of its extremely hardcore sensibilities or because I'm hopelessly addicted to it is for you to decide."
TheBBPS:
"I'd definitely recommend picking the game up if you're a puzzle fan. It may look like some sort of weird plane sim, but it's really an involved nuanced puzzle game. I love when I get to play a game that isn't something I've played before. Each game I play makes that less and less likely so it's a real joy when it happens."
