Description
Crimson Skies is an arcade flight simulator, which plays in an alternate reality. Based on a FASA pen-and-paper game, you play the part of a daring rogue who flys missions for fame and fortune in an alternate reality 1937. The planes look like a mixture of futuristic planes and planes from WW2.
The single player missions are very various, as you have to complete jobs like finding a treasure, hijacking an experimental plane from the enemy or defend your homebase, which is a huge zeppelin. If you're done with the single-player-part you also will enjoy the multiplayer dogfights.
