"Fantastic!"
5 stars"

Even though its a bit dated now, from beginning to end it is truely a wild ride! don't expect a “flying sim” type game, this is all about the action!

The voice acting and characterisation is top notch.

If you like the idea of a flying game where you get to hug the terrain then this is the game!

Description

Set in an alternate 1937, Crimson Skies combines the intense action of air combat with the swashbuckling feel of an Errol Flynn adventure movie. As the handsome and daring air pirate, Nathan Zachary, players take to skies filled with treacherous air pirates, giant aircraft carrier zeppelins, and the ever-changing political landscape of a fractured United States. Enter a classic Hollywood adventure movie-world of dastardly villains, beautiful air-privateers, and valiant militia forces as you battle for control of the skies of North America and the aerial universe of Crimson Skies!

  • Grip the yoke tight as you fly low in completely interactive 3-D environments! Crimson Skies puts the emphasis on flying low and using it's faithfully rendered 1937 America landscape to your advantage.
