Falcon Patrol II is a scrolling shooter over a landscape resembling Egypt or the Middle East. The player controls a jet fighter and has to destroy a set number of enemy helicopters to clear a level. The helicopters come in three forms:[2]

  1. Transport: unarmed helicopter that lays missile turrets and radar interference devices on the ground
  2. Gunship: escorts the transport helicopters and shoots at the fighter
  3. Solo: fast combat helicopter that goes right after the fighter.

The jet fighter has a finite supply of fuel[3] and ammunition, but both can be replenished by landing on a landing pad.[2]
