Port of Classic Computer Game with Odd Addition

The Good
The 5200 version is an excellent game with solid animation and gameplay.

The Bad
Why does this version have gravity? A helicopter normally doesn’t behave this way. Makes the the game a bit tougher.

The Bottom Line
Regardless of the gravity addition, still a recommended game.

5200 Choplifter differs slightly from its 800 cousin (which was itself imported from Apple II), offering analog steering and minor variations on graphics. It's an original premise, always challenging, always engaging.

this version really give you the feel of flying(thanks to the analog stick) having 2 buttons one for fire and the other for copter orientation makes this perfect

ive never been able to save all the little fellers but i'll keep trying
