The object of the game is to shoot down as many of the enemy's planes as you can without getting shot down. The longer you survive the battle, the higher your score will be.

After both planes are airborne, practice making adjustments in speed and direction to increase your flying skills. When the enemy is in sight, pull the trigger to send him crashing to the ground. Then, prepare to fly out of the path of another enemy plane.

The time clock in the lower center of the screen shows the remaining game time. The number on the left side of the clock represents the score for player 1. while the number on the right side shows the score for player 2.

SCORING

A player's score is determined by how many of the enemy's planes he shoots down in a given time period.

Each time a plane is hit, the survivor is awarded one point. When time runs out, the player with the most points is "The Red Baron."
