    The game's story revolves around a series of mission-based scenarios set in a war environment, where players must strategize and execute various military operations, such as destroying enemy installations and engaging in dogfights. While the missions are generated based on the war's current needs, players can also create and customize their own missions, though some reviewers noted that the missions can become predictable over time. The emphasis on planning, execution, and the consequences of failure adds depth to the narrative experience.

    • “Plan the missions, load up the weapons, find and identify the enemy (and avoid getting shot down), and employ your weapons.”
    • “Unfortunately, over time I have found that the missions become somewhat predictable.”
    • “Each mission is generated based on the current needs of the war.”
    • “Lots of red flag preset and theoretical training missions (defensive BFM, head-on BFM, offensive BFM, lessons from the manual, etc.) and you can create and edit your own missions.”

    The graphics of the game are described as retro and low-resolution, appealing primarily to those who appreciate older styles and are less concerned with modern visuals. While some users find the graphics reminiscent of the late 90s and not aged well, others prefer the aesthetic over newer iterations, suggesting that the game offers a unique experience despite its dated appearance. Overall, it caters to players who enjoy a hard simulator experience without the need for high-end graphics.

    • “I know people tend to hate on older graphics (especially in the sim community), but this looks more appealing than 4.0 in my eyes.”
    • “4.0 still has that late 90s 3D feel; it hasn't aged well these days versus the graphics of 3.0, which looks more similar to pixel art.”
    • “If you don't mind the retro graphics and are comfortable spending a bit of time getting DOSBox and controls configured, then this game offers an experience and gameplay that hasn't been recreated since.”
    • “If you want a hardcore simulator and a realistic one, and don't care about the graphics, Falcon is for you!”
    • “4.0 still has that late 90s 3D feel; it hasn't aged well these days compared to the graphics of 3.0, which look more similar to pixel art.”
    • “If low-res graphics can't shock you, go for it.”
