Project Summary
Search and Rescue II (SaR2) is a rescue helicopter simulator for Linux. It features several missions where the player pilots a helicopter in order to rescue people in distress in several world locations while flying different helicopter models (and even planes).
Input from multiple joysticks is supported, including rudder pedals.
SaR2 is an old game but it is a lot of fun to play and it is relatively easy to create new missions and scenarios. Please report any issues and feel free to contribute to its development!
