Blacksmith Market Falcons is a fixed shooter inspired by arcade classics like Phoenix. The player controls a spaceship at the bottom of the screen, moving left and right while firing upward at waves of enemies descending from above. Enemies attack with missiles, diving charges, and other hazards, forcing the player to dodge carefully. A temporary force field can be activated for protection, but it only lasts a few seconds, so timing is essential. The game features five repeating stages, with the fifth stage culminating in a battle against a large enemy spaceship. After completing the sequence, the stages loop endlessly with increasing challenge. Controls include paddle, keyboard, joystick, and Apple III keyboard options.
