Play Flame Storm - The Bratockian Saga Volume II Online

Flame Storm: The Bratockian Saga Volume II came out as part of the MS-DOS Classic Games collection, a release that bundled a number of older titles for a new generation. It was developed by a smaller studio whose name escapes me now, but it fit right in with the kind of action games that thrived on the platform in the early 90s, demanding quick reflexes and a steady hand.

You pilot a lone starfighter against the relentless Bratockian fleet, navigating through dense asteroid fields and enemy formations. Your main goal is to survive each stage, destroying capital ships and dodging swarms of smaller fighters. The game emphasizes precise movement, with signature mechanics like screen by screen progression, tight barrel rolls to evade fire, and collecting power ups for enhanced weapons. The pacing is relentless, and the difficulty is punishing, especially in later levels where enemy patterns become overwhelming. It feels like a constant, frantic dance between survival and aggression, where every successful dodge is a small victory.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
