Soar across the beautiful skies of the San Francisco bay area, Las Vegas, and Switzerland.
Flight Unlimited utilizes advanced streaming technology to provide some of the best visuals in flight simulation.
The HD scenery is a first in mobile flight simulation and covers an area over 10x larger than its predecessor. The scenery is so detailed you can even find your house.
The campaign tasks with you missions such as rescuing a prisoner from Alcatraz, B2 Bomber surveillance over the Swiss Alps, landing your Cessna on the Golden Gate Bridge, and more!
Over two years in the making, Flight Unlimited has been redesigned from the ground up by an aviation expert. The game features Ultra high definition satellite imagery of the San Francisco Bay Area, Las Vegas, and Switzerland. Never before has this level of detail been provided in a Flight Simulator. Buzz the Golden Gate Bridge, take a fly-by of Alcatraz, scream past Levi Field, and even take a look at the future home of the world champion Golden State Warriors.

A cracking quote about how fine it looks attributed to, er, nobody in the blurb.
The "real" reviews tell us what to expect though right enough...

Anyone know how to purchase from a non-Windows device?
Seems a rather huge oversight that the device compatibility (presumably based upon your web browser's user agent) also locks out purchasing capability....

Never having done any flight sim, can anyone tell me whether you need anything in the way of hardware to control it - other than a mouse?
And if it's as pants as reviews suggest, does anyone have any suggestions for better games in this genre?
"Approximate download size 3.44 GB", btw.

Haven't played this game. Used to play flight sim games years ago. Actually had the joystick you push/pull back on. I'd say having one of those makes it a lot more immersive.

To fly realistically you would need a yolk (hand controls) and optionally foot pedals. If you've got piles of cash then buy some instrument panels to set radios, etc.
You can pick up Microsoft FSX cheap online or if you've got more cash go for X-Plane 11.
My suggestions for better games: Flight Sim World (currently £14.99 with 25% off on Steam) seems to be getting decent reviews store.steampowered.com/app…280
One of the most beautiful games in the windows store.... doesn't really say much that statement. MIGHT try it as it's free. Wouldn't pay in all honesty.

Then there are add-ons to improve the sim, such as better weather, scenery / terrain and flight evaluation / instruction.
Good luck!
