The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
The game feels like being strapped into a complex, realistic military machine where every action demands precision and patience.

What players say
Players call this a serious 90s study sim of the F-14, with deep AWG-9 radar and carrier landing modeling. Graphics are muddy 320x200 but the game holds up. Some note DCS: F-14 is more detailed but less immersive for quick missions. This is abandonware with no support.
