Hello my friends, and welcome back to Retro Dogfight! In this episode, Denny, Chase, and I will go back to the beginning of our venerable genre, looking at some very, very, VERY early text-based flight sim games from the late 1970s and early 1980s! The games we’re looking at this time are:

  • B-1 Nuclear Bomber
  • Computer Air Combat
  • Eagles

These games originated in wargaming and board gaming, so they are very, VERY grognardy. Despite this, two of the games turned out to be a lot of fun, while one was an utter pile of garbage. You’ll need to listen to the episode to figure out which is which.

Next time, we’re broaching the earliest MicroProse games with Sid Meier’s Ace series, which includes Hellcat Ace, Spitfire Ace and MiG Alley Ace! This reminds me that I need to finish Sid Meier’s memoir!

Thank you so much for listening, my friends, and we hope you enjoy the show!
