AI Intelligence
87
ScoreOut of 100
Pros
- +Free expansion with actual missions, not just cosmetic fluff
- +Highly detailed Hawkins map with 40+ recognizable locations
- +Great use of the Bell UH-1H helicopter in rescue and supply missions
- +Murray Bauman voice work adds personality and humor
- +Smart on-ramp for non-sim players who like Stranger Things
- +Doesn’t compromise core sim identity while still being playful
Cons
- -Tonal clash will annoy sim purists who want pure realism
- -Limited long-term appeal once the five missions are done
- -Still very much a flight sim—casual Stranger Things fans may bounce off the complexity
- -Stranger Things theming is more backdrop than full horror experience
