Down In Flames focuses on tactical fighter to fighter dogfight combat in World War II. The game is turn based, and the action is resolved through a unique 'action - reaction' game mechanic that allows players to experience the feel of real life aerial dogfighting with a fast paced, easy to learn system.

DOWN IN FLAMES is an action-packed, fun and innovative game system based on the award-winning card games from Dan Verssen Games. With the unique action/reaction game system, gameplay is fast and furious, and yet captures the principles of airborne warfare during the Second World War exceptionally well. Hundreds of players are already playing the free beta demo version, released a few weeks ago, and competing for the top spots on the leaderboard while building their pilots to top aces, or recreating historical campaigns, or competing in official tournaments against each other.
