Dogfight! joins the acclaimed Blitzkrieg line of quick, 20-minute games, bringing high-stakes aerial duels to the table. Set in the First World War, two rival aviators face off in a battle of wits and precision with biplanes. Your goal is to maneuver your plane to get behind your opponent and strike at the perfect moment.

The game unfolds over a maximum of three rounds or until one biplane is shot down, ending the game immediately with the surviving player as the winner. If neither plane is downed by the end of the third round, the player with the fewest hits wins.

Players choose a tile in secret, then reveal them simultaneously. Each tile determines the movement and potential hits for their biplane. With nine different biplanes featuring unique tile distributions, and various scenarios included, the game offers diverse strategic options. Biplanes follow a white path with directional arrows, where circles represent spaces, and colors on some spaces affect shooting. You can maneuver past your opponent or even end up on the same space, but beware—one misstep and your enemy could loop behind you for a devastating attack!
