Twin Tornado

Commodore 64 · 1987 · EU

Publisher: Doctorsoft · Developer: Nick Brown · Genre: Simulator

“Twin Tornado” is a detailed flight simulator that puts you in the cockpit of a jet and lets you engage in thrilling dogfights – either against the computer or a friend. Before the action, you can run a training flight to get familiar with the complex controls. Mistakes are flagged by a red screen flash, but the flight continues. You take off and land on a realistic runway, with the display split in two: the top shows the cockpit view, while the bottom features a fully equipped instrument panel simulating a real aircraft. Control is handled with two joysticks – one for direction, one for speed – and the keyboard for fine adjustments.
