Most complaints about watchOS games boil down to poor graphics or lack of sound effects. Wing Shooter scores high marks on both fronts, although the visuals are almost too detailed for the tiny screen, rendering play an awkard challenge.

A mix of classics Galaxian and Space Invaders, Wing Shooter puts Apple Watch owners on the front lines of an aerial battle matching wits with aliens.

This is a great one to show skeptical friends how good games can be on a Watch. Players turn the digital crown to evade incoming enemies or aim blasters; pick up the occasional yellow badge and you’ll become equipped with more powerful weapons like a laser or lightning storm to wipe out enemies.

The level of detail in the background cityscape is only thing keeping this from perfection, they need to be darker or a little less detailed to make the gameplay stand out more.

the bottom line. That rare Watch game with both great graphics and sound.
