Ace of Aces could be one of the most unique games you've seen in a long time. Using only two game books to simulate an entire aerial combat!

First released in 1980, Ace of Aces is the first of the Handy Rotary Series. It was a series of game books that were designed to be played in a 2 player game. The principle of each game was that each page would represent a specific game state of both players.
A friend of mine had a copy of this back in the 1980s. Great fun, albeit slightly clunky to play.
Nice. I've got some that are inspired by it, there's not much depth but it was a fun concept when we didn't have other options.
