Guns! Explosions! Mayhem! Landing gear!

What do you get when you take Choplifter, U.N. Squadron, and other side-scrolling arcade shooters no one under 40 has heard of and no one over 40 remembers, throw in a dash of realism from Jane’s Combat Simulations and DCS, and mix it all together? Bombs! Missiles! Death! Stall warnings!

Do you like 3D graphics? Sound? Colors? Well, slow down there, Buck Rogers. Rather Curious Side-scrolling Combat Flight Simulator 1 isn’t for pampered city folk and their fancy “production values.” Rather Curious Side-scrolling Combat Flight Simulator 1 takes the old in old school and makes it older.

Featured content:

- 9 exciting missions!

- 4 boring tutorials!

- 1 race-against-time campaign!

- Free flight mode!

- 14 weapon options!

- Customizable loadouts!

- Empty promises!

- Fuel tanks!

Not to mention 7 flyable aircraft:

- A-10 Thunderbolt II!

- AH-64 Apache!

- UH-60 Black Hawk!

- F-16 Fighting Falcon!

And these “bonus” aircraft, which are also in the game for some reason:

- MQ-1 Predator!

- Cessna 172!

- Bell 222!

Jump in the cockpit and guide your mercenary air force to victory for fun and profit. Too close for missiles, switching to guns!
