All the action takes place on the traditional battlefields of army men, from the burning wastes of the sandbox to steamy gardens to--when Mom's not looking--indoor locations such as the bathroom. In fact, the game lets you indulge all the pubescent army-man whims that parents warn against: the Flamethrower Guy spouts real flames and reduces enemy soldiers to puddles of plastic, and environmental hazards such as Bunsen burners and backyard grills can end any plastic warrior's career. Your chopper can even be equipped with the bane of many a real-life army man: fireworks. Launching a few bottle rockets into a Tan tank convoy is pure pyromaniacal bliss.
Missions are varied to keep things interesting, and the game actually contains a plot to move the action along. Seems that Plastro has teamed up with a mad scientist from the Gray army and is working on creating a new breed of soldiers to conquer the world. The hokey plot just doesn't seem that bad, given the game's setting. In fact, you'll come to care for the soldiers entrusted to you and may even feel a little pang of regret whenever a stranded Bazooka Guy gets blasted because you weren't quick enough with an evac. Okay, maybe not, but Army Men: Air Tactics is a worthy addition to the Army Men franchise and is sure to put a smile on the face of anybody who's played with these guys.

Customer Reviews of Army Men: Air Tactics (Jewel Case)
A solid flying game. Well, this is a solid entry into the fly genre. Its non-violent premise and realative lack of blood make this suitable for more ages. The gameplay is good, but it gets very repetitve in places. This is generally the same game as Playstation's Air Attack. ARMY MEN AIR TACTICS makes all the right moves, but something is generally lacking.
My 7-yr old son enjoys this game
This game is a good compromise choice when your kid wants a shoot 'em up game but you don't like the graphic violence in many games. There's enough strategy involved to make it more interesting than an arcade type game, yet it's easy enough for a younger kid to play and enjoy. This was the first of the Army Men games that I bought for my son, but have bought two more since then, all have been a hit with him.
