This is the helicopter sim you've always wanted.

What makes a good sim? Three words--Suspension of Disbelief. The same words of advice you'll hear in an entry-level writing course. Make the participant in your dream believe in your vision more than reality itself. Enemy Engaged achieves that lofty goal in so many ways and so much more powerfully than any other simulator I have every played.

The best combat helicopter sim on the market, bar none. [Oct 2000, p.128]

All Game Guide
A complete and accurate helicopter simulation that should please hardcore combat flight enthusiasts. Not just one, but two attack helicopters are featured and the designers don't skimp on the flight characteristics of either.

Of all the helicopter simulations released this year, Razorworks' product is in a class by itself, and it will certainly earn itself a place on the ballot when the best-sim-of-the-year nominations come around.

Not only the best helicopter sim I've ever played, it's the best flight simulator as well.

I only wish I didn't have to turn my attention to other games to review, as my many hours with this title have persuaded me I'm only scratching the surface of this very dynamic sim.

Extremely realistic attack chopper sim that's not for the weak of hear or impatient of trigger finger. [Feb 2003, p.94]

There is nothing here that will convince flight sim haters to reconsider their approach, but invest time in this game and you will be rewarded with a fine gameplaying experience.

I found Comanche Hokum to be a thoroughly engrossing simulation, despite the fact that the graphics are a little jarring.

Even though the developer left out a training module and the CD duplicator unintentionally omitted the game's audio tracks, "Comanche Versus Hokum" is nevertheless a worthy addition to any flight enthusiast's library of chopper simulations.

M.RASHID A. gave it a 9:
Excellent.

Aden H. gave it a 10:
Kool.

Demetrius M. gave it an 8:
Awesome helicopter sim, very indepth and the cockpits are very cool, corresponding to what you do in real life ie: you increase the collective and the guy increases the collective. I know it's simple, but it adds a lot to the feel of the game. And its way cool. The only downside is that for a while the game would not work with my USB Saitek X36 Fight/Throttle stick, but after installing the patch it worked great. Hey where the music?
