How it feels

A fast-paced, stressful arcade shooter where you scramble to shoot pirates and keep your creaking airship afloat.

What players say

Players describe Flight of the Icarus as a singleplayer rail shooter that gets repetitive quickly, with very little content or variety. Some defend it as a distinct early roguelike arcade experience, but the majority see it as an unfinished demo or a rough prototype for Guns of Icarus Online that does not hold up alone.
