Sopwith (The Author’s Edition) for DOS, released in 1984 by David L. Clark, is an enhanced version of the original Sopwith side-scrolling dogfighting game. Players pilot a biplane, completing missions like bombing enemy buildings, shooting down other planes, and avoiding obstacles such as birds and anti-aircraft fire. With its simple wireframe graphics, addictive gameplay, and two-player mode, Sopwith (The Author’s Edition) became a beloved early PC classic among action and flight game fans.
