Gameplay
[edit]The game features most well-known aircraft models, such as the Airbus A380 or the Boeing 747-400, as well as 2,600 airports including Paris Charles de Gaulle and New York John F. Kennedy Airport.[2][3]
At the beginning, the player starts with 300 000 000 $, and the goal is to own as many airline routes, aircraft, and generate as much revenue as possible to climb the leaderboard.
In the classic mode, in-game time progresses in real time, mirroring real-world duration.[3]
In the accelerated mode, players earn money faster, deliveries are quicker, but the duration is limited to one month, unlike the endless classic mode.[4]
As the game progresses, the player can unlock features such as cargo aircraft or various services that enhance the company's reputation.
Legacy
[edit]The game is developed in France. It is recognized in several countries, including by the IATA, which recommends the game to economics students preparing for a future in the aviation industry.[5]
It has also been presented with great success at the Paris Air Show and at the Paris Games Week.[6]
Initially, the game gathered only 100 000 players.[6] By 2018, it had over 1.3 million active accounts.[3]
