Merlin Challenge description
Very unusual helicopter simulator of the British Navy, which is a not even a complete game, but rather a "virtual trainer".
Title screen The Royal Navy
The fact that the game has no missions, battles and even any full-fledged action (despite the fact that you manned helicopter – military). Your task is simply to land the helicopter on the deck of an aircraft carrier. And that's all.
Choosing the controls Choose the difficult Turning around to find the ship There you are!
The choice has several levels of difficulty – it depends on whether the carrier is moving, whether the wind is blowing and whether there are others around the helicopter, complicating the landing. The game is first person, after landing (if successful) will show the entire helicopter from the third person. Graphics almost three-dimensional and very beautiful, although look especially nothing – the sea, the aircraft carrier, helicopters. To go nowhere, to do (except landing) is also nothing.
Cleared for approach Approaching the ship
Although generally very original, sometimes very complex and somehow very addicting game.
