Have you ever wondered that? Well maybe it’s my bad habit of asking myself “nonsense” questions like this here, from time to time, but I’ve always wondered what that “mechanism” is behind every one of the great helicopter games I’ve played online. . That kept me glued to my desk chair for hours on end, making it impossible for me to come out of my trance before completing all the missions in the game. Sure, it definitely must be that once-in-a-lifetime chance to fly a helicopter, but I’m pretty sure there’s more to it than this obvious aspect.
Could it also be the fact that game developers are competing with each other (fortunately for us gamers, the beneficiaries of their “struggles”) to generate that feeling of being in a war zone (in 90% of helicopter games online the action takes place during the war)? The war scenes and missions that we get at the beginning of each game, really give us the addictive illusion that we are some kind of soldiers, who will soon become war heroes, fighting against the ruthless enemies of our country. Could you refuse to accept the challenge of piloting an impressive helicopter or an Apache GT8, equipped with different types of weapons, and prove that you are worthy of being proclaimed the great hero of your nation? “Armed” with great shooting skills and strategy skills, your adventure, up there in the sky, as you become one with your helicopter, will be spiced up with all kinds of challenges, such as dodging missiles launched from I am on the ground, Shooting your enemies strategically positioned on the ground, not to mention the great challenge of taking great levels of caution when you drop your bombs or shoot your machine gun that is equipped with our helicopter, ballast should you accidentally hit the buildings. where civilians live. If you think playing helicopter games is simply about piloting, the ability to control your plane, then you couldn’t have been more wrong: the vast majority of these games challenge you with some highly challenging missions that you must complete, while on top, in the sky!
Another reason we instantly become addicted to these types of online games is the opportunity to put ourselves in the shoes of some brave and risky rescuers. Rescue mission is another popular theme among helicopter games! Your task is to carefully pick up the victims of different disasters (wars, shipwrecks or natural calamities) and take them to a safer place while, in some games, you are attacked, in the air or from the ground, by various enemies. . Aware of the fact that you are the only hope of these helpless people, of the importance of your mission, you simply will not be able to get away from your PC until you have successfully carried out your rescue task.
Now when it comes to helicopter game addiction, how could we forget about the ones where you’re not playing the role of a fighter pilot or a fearless savior, those games where your mission is simply. .. keep your helicopter in tip-top condition while flying it through a … tunnel. As seemingly simple and yet addictive as that! Keeping your vehicle away from the tunnel walls, finding the perfectly safe height, and keeping your helicopter at this height, while doing your best to move forward and pilot it out of the tunnel, will prove to be … a surprisingly addictive mission for all!
Here are some reasons for my addiction to online helicopter games that I might unearth. What are your “excuses” for playing them for hours?
