Gameplay
MiG Alley Ace is a head-to-head flight simulator by Andy Hollis.[2] It is based on the combat in MiG Alley.[3][4]
Reception
David Patton reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "While this game lacks too many features to be called a true flight simulator (it has no attitude indicator, no "weather problems", no runways, no player control over ailerons and rudders, etc. . .), the excellent aerial dogfight action and Korean war setting make it worthy purchase for both the war gamer who is looking for a good arcade experience and for the arcader who is ready to go to war."[5]
In 1996, Computer Gaming World declared MiG Alley Ace the 129th-best computer game ever released.[2]
