Dogfight: 80 Years of Aerial Warfare

With a title like Dogfight: 80 Years of Aerial Warfare, you know you’re in for a serious history lesson disguised as a game. Released in 1993, this DOS flight sim spans decades of airborne combat, letting you pilot everything from flimsy biplanes to roaring jet fighters. The graphics are dated polygons and flat terrain, but the thrill comes from mastering the skies. Dogfights are tense, demanding, and occasionally hilarious when you realize you’ve been chasing your own wingman in circles. It’s half simulation, half arcade, and all about proving you can keep your cool while gravity and bullets team up against you.
