Arcade Flight Simulator (1989)

Arcade Flight Simulator is an arcade shoot-em-up game released by Code Masters in 1989 for the ZX Spectrum. It was developed by Amazing Games, with music composed by David Whittaker.

The game is a top-view shooter that supports up to two players. It features compatibility with Kempston joysticks and the Interface 2 controller, focusing on arcade-style action rather than realistic simulation.

The cassette cost £2.99.

The game received an average magazine score of 63.25%, with ratings ranging from 48% in C&VG to 76% in Your Sinclair.

In the USSR and Russia, the game was widely circulated thanks to numerous TR-DOS disk adaptations. While it was often criticized in magazines like Spectrum Progress for being overly simplistic, it remained a well-known title. POKE-codes for the game were published in Emulate, and cracked cassette versions were also distributed.
