Comments on Tail Gun Charlie for Android

★★★★★ Angel Of DC · Apr 24, 2026
Absolute. Classic. Been playing this game for YEARS, since I was a kid, always fun to reinstall and play again.
★★★★☆ anurag chauhan · Mar 19, 2025
Hi developers I would like to see more maps planes & add campaign of real world war scenarios. Give us some upgrade for the main guns. Make it more exciting that it already is. love playing it. Add ground forces that we can shoot. Give multiplayer options were we all can play behind the plane shooting targets and make points collectively. Make clans add chat boxs. Make this great and add more textures to the surroundings. Add where we can drop bombs on the ships and subs. Waiting for the update.

Was a great game. Loved it. However, after playing a few months I've noticed issues. Gyroscope aiming drifts a lot, despite calibrating gyroscope constantly. Music cut out and stopped playing until I uninstalled/reinstalled it. Biggest issue is the gun. It varies firing rate constantly. Some games it's fast, others it slows down to a trickle. Annoying. Edit, you now have to sit through 2 minutes of ads. Bad move developers. Don't be greedy scumbags. I've uninstalled it. Won't be playing again.
★☆☆☆☆ Josh Thompson · Jun 27, 2026
I removed the ap because I got to the highest stage in the game and could not go higher. Be aware of this. If I can recall I was somewhere in the 30’s. There are no other weapon features to choose. Your stuck only with the cannons.

Description by Panic Ensues Software Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Man the tail gun turret in this WWII action/arcade shooter! Use your phone's gyroscope or touchscreen to aim your guns, and touch either red button to open fire.

The tail gunner was a critical role in the crew of bombers like the B-17, B-24, B-25, and B-29.

Guns! Rack your twin .50-cals to defend your bomber against the ever-growing waves of Axis fighters.

Planes! Me-109s, FW-190s, Bf-110s, whatever the Axis can throw at you.

Lives! You only get 5. Once 5 enemy fighters make it past your defenses, it's game over for you and your flight crew.

Ammo! As in unlimited, you'll never run out! Just keep an eye on how hot your guns are; if they overheat, the enemy won't wait for them to cool down before swooping in for the kill.

This game is graphically demanding, which means it will gleefully eat your battery. Don't play if you're without a charger and waiting for that call from the hospital to let you know your new kidney has arrived.

If you're aiming using your gyroscope and it drifts out of alignment (or you want to face a different direction), just point your phone at where the "center" should be and hit the Align button at bottom left.
