You will fight against enemy helicopters, bunkers, tanks and fighter jets above different terrains like water, deserts and military camps. There is no background story and there are no levels.
The gameplay involves navigating your helicopter through the terrain while avoiding enemy fire and shooting down as many enemies as you can. The game requires quick reflexes and strategy to survive.
