After the quite interesting updates during the week – thanks again to the eager contributors! – we return to our theme for the weekend!
Today we take a look at one of those games that somewhat belong to the hard core of old DOS games, one of those titles that can be found on almost any abandonware site. Actually it has been on this site for quite a long time too, but since the old review does not live up to our current standards I thought it deserved another go. Not only because it is a title I care a lot about, but also because it is one of the most famous World War I computer games too – at least to gamers of a certain age.
It belongs to the probably most popular genre for games set in this conflict: The good old flight simulator. And even though there had been a couple of similar games before (and after) it, this one actually was one of the first to have a major breakthrough.
So put on you flight goggles and get on your leather jackets: We are going to take on the Red Baron!
