What makes the game, though, is that more than almost any other simulation, the arcade demands of things to blow up and the intellectual demands of flying the helicopter are perfectly mixed. There is a powerful impression or realism, thanks not only to the sheer accuracy of the controls, but also due to the very impressive 3D graphics. However, there are also helicopters, tanks and field guns to attack. This Amstrad version of the game is almost exactly the same as the Spectrum version , which was good enough. It's perhaps a shame that the Amstrad's extra features like sound were not utilised Nevertheless for Amstrad owners into flight simulators this Is the one to go for Popular Computing Weekly
