You've probably played the original Flight Command, but mayhap you lot missed its mostly superior sequel.

FC Rocket

Not just is FC Rocket way prettier than its forbear, it as well offers a lot more gameplay. The three modes each mix the gameplay upward in interesting means, irresolute up the philharmonic scoring system, bonus rounds, and even mixing in stranded astronauts to rescue. Players can as well purchase and equip a variety of robot helpers to customize the gameplay a fleck.

The but catch is that FC Rocket'southward Achievements are horrendously grindy. The original iOS game allowed users to make IN-App Purchases that would speed them upwardly, but there is no such selection on Windows Phone. Still, every bit I say in our review, if y'all ignore Achievements this is the best line-drawing game in town.
