Wings of Prey would stand out even if the sim field were considerably more crowded. The concessions and compromises to realism are bound to aggravate purists, but it's a small price to pay for the range of flight models you get here.

Tight, fast paced action and great atmosphere make Wings of Prey one of the best attempts at creating an easily accessible light simulator, but it could use more settings in the difficulty options, better damage modeling, more missions and maybe even dynamic campaigns. The AI and flight modeling are already quite good for a non-hardcore simulator. [Feb 2010]

A game that flies high, but is almost shot down by severe controller issues. [Mar 2010, p.92]

So polished. [May 2010, p.93]

Wings Of Prey is a well thought out visual and audio treat to the senses.

Wings of Prey ingeniously combines the skies over Europe with the WWII stage to bring players a gift that will please both rookies and fighter aces.

Wings of Prey is a dog fight simulator as I haven't seen in a long time: fast, undaunted, honest. Probably something could have been done to give it a strongest storyline, but if you are a pilot, you have the game that will make your blood boil.

Hardcore fans may find it lacking but Wings of Prey is solid fighter fun. [Issue#30, p.8]

Flight model is the strongest point of Wings of Prey, even despite its arcade-style single-player campaign.

With its hybrid gameplay Wings of Prey manages to bring this particular genre to a larger audience. You also find good graphics and an engine capable of running even on dated machines. A game suggested to all simulation lovers but also to gamers who want to approach this genre for the first time.
