Choplifter is a side-scrolling action/arcade game that puts the player in command of an attack chopper. The mission: Go behind enemy lines and rescue up to 64 hostages. However, the chopper can only carry 16 passengers at a time, so several rescue attempts must be made to rescue everyone. Be careful, though, because tanks and enemy aircraft will try to stop you - and they won't stop shooting while you are rescuing those hostages!
Originally released for the Apple II home computer, titled Choplifter!, it was later ported to the arcades in a rare instance of a home version receiving a later arcade release. |
