The WhatsNext verdict

Puffin Planes is a charming, highly approachable airline-management sandbox whose route-building loop is far more compelling than its simulation depth. Play it if you want a relaxed network-optimization game that can quietly consume an evening.

  • A quietly absorbing airline-building loop

  • Designing an airline network becomes the real puzzle

  • An unusually welcoming management sim

What might put you off
