Airborne Assault: Red Devils Over Arnhem is a real-time strategy game focused on recreating Operation Market Garden. Unlike traditional strategy games, players command companies and battalions rather than individual units. The game uses a top-down map with abstract symbols to represent friendly and enemy forces. Orders are issued through this interface, which also provides unit statistics.

The game features 22 scenarios playable as either the Allies or Axis, involving hundreds of units and over 80,000 soldiers across 440 unit types. It includes the ScenMaker Beta tool, allowing players to create custom scenarios.
