Battle of Europe

Battle of Europe is an "arcade-style" 3D flight sim--meaning that if you're looking for accurate simulation of the flight characteristics of WWII era aircraft, well, you won't find that here. On the other hand, if you want a fast-moving, easy-to-learn game that lets you soar above war-torn Europe and blast away at Messershmitts, it may be just the ticket. The problem with "sim-style" flight sims, after all, is that just learning how to land and takeoff--let alone be effective in a dog-fight--is a major undertaking in its own right. For a "pick up and play" air combat game, Battle of Europe is pretty slick.

The Developer Says:

Battle of Europe is a fully 3D arcade action game. Taking place in the skies over Europe, players are taken through breathtaking terrain modeled for London, Norway, Dunkirk and Berlin. A full hanger of fighters and bombers completely submerse the player in the reality of the World War II flying aces; risking their lives daily in countless dog fights, and returning home in a smoking plane littered with bullet holes ...if at all.

Whether the sortie puts the player in the seat of a traditional British Spitfire, or behind the throttle of a captured German prototype, the honor of the RAF must be maintained at all costs in order to keep the Axis forces at bay!
