Air to air and air to ground combat flight simulation
Defeat the elusive Starglider in an amazing all-action combat
flight simulation. The planet Novenia has been devastated by an
evil tide of invading Egrons; single-handed, you must wipe out
the enemy in explosive one-to-one combat. Swooping down with
lasers blazing, you'll need to take fast evasive action to avoid the
barrage of enemy missiles. Exhilarating low-level attack and
defence flight manoeuvres, coupled with a cunning strategic
element, make STARGLIDER a classic among classics.
