Red Baron Pack
SCORE: 58
I am thankful Family Friendly Gaming was provided a download code for
Red Baron Pack on Steam. This Personal Computer (PC) video game contains
Red Baron and Red Baron 3D. Those were physical copy releases back in
1990, and 1998. Now in the year of our Lord 2016 these two games have
been packaged together and released in the dreaded digital download
format.
I think there was a missed opportunity here. A new physical copy release
could have included some cool things for gamers to touch and feel. Retro
has been rage in recent years so Red Baron Pack fits into that mold.
Trust me Red Baron Pack has the retro graphics down. I did not play the
Red Baron, or Red Baron 3D when they first came out. I have now and can
see their charm.
I read on the Steam help page for Red Baron Pack that some people had
issues with the games crashing. I did not run into that problem here at
Family Friendly Gaming. The blocky graphics will either freak you out,
or make you laugh. The controls can be touchy at times. Especially if
you get a wing shot by another World War One pilot. Being able to play
the British or Germans is neat.
There are numerous modes to keep retro gamers happy. Some people have
complained about the price of Red Baron Pack on Steam, especially when
it is compared to used physical copies of these games. I would like Red
Baron Pack to be a bit more competitive in the pricing area. I also know
many of the members of Family Friendly Gaming Universe go out and
purchase physical copy versions of retro games.
I laughed frequently when I played Red Baron Pack. The retro graphics
made it hard to see what things were. So I would take a closer look, and
usually wind up crashing. Dog fighting can be challenging in Red Baron
Pack. It takes practice and patience to get good at Red Baron Pack.
Start with weaker opponents. It is also smart to turn off stalling, and
gun jams in the options screen.
