+14
- Engaging and addictive gameplay with simple yet original controls that vary between helicopters, offering a unique handling experience.
- Beautiful pixelated voxel graphics and varied, well-polished levels with different environments and strategic enemy placements.
- Good replay value with mission rankings, collectibles, unlockable helicopters and weapons, and a balanced difficulty level that is challenging but enjoyable.
- Some players report poor PC optimization and stuttering issues, along with a UI that feels designed for mobile devices rather than PC.
- The game can feel repetitive and grindy, relying heavily on upgrades to progress, which may diminish long-term engagement for some.
- Limited and simplistic controls, including auto-firing mechanics and lack of analog movement options, leading to less depth and player agency in combat.

The story in this game is relatively short and not deeply developed, but it gradually unfolds through missions featuring various objectives and ends with boss encounters. The campaign offers variety with different helicopters, weapons, and mission types, enhanced by unlockables and replay value, though some players note repetitive mission templates and a desire for more narrative depth and player choice. Overall, it provides a polished indie experience with enough story elements to engage without being the main focus.
“More levels, more helicopters, more scenarios, more and new enemies, more bosses, more weapons, more game modes, even a multiplayer mode, even adding a story, a deeper campaign now with a protagonist and good characters and much more.”
“The main game is a campaign of 30 missions, you mix different kinds of goals (attack, defend, rescue, deliver) with different helicopters and equipment.”
“On the other hand, we find a short story, not very deep, but each level reveals small details about it, ending with a boss, something I didn't expect to find in this game.”
“Would like a little more options in missions instead of a single path.”
“The mission template does repeat a little too often, but thankfully the art of maneuvering your helicopter around each level often elevates whatever cookie cutter goal you’ve tasked with completing.”

Despite a bumpy start, Dustoff Heli Rescue II is a decent little game for the Switch. I found more enjoyment here than I expected, and it’s also tougher than it seems at first glance. Despite some flaws, which keep the game from being great, there is definitely fun to be had here.

With plenty of replay value to be had through mission rankings, in-game collectibles and a vast list of missions to undertake, Dustoff Heli Rescue 2 certainly offers plenty of aerial bang for its buck. The mission template does repeat a little too often, but thankfully the art of maneuvering your helicopter around each level often elevates whatever cookie cutter goal you’ve tasked with completing. Silly and challenging in equal measure, this little port makes a relatively painless landing on Nintendo Switch.
