Muffy St. Bernard — 1 Jul 2010
Not so bad at all, especially considering it's written in BASIC. Use your helicopter to rescue people by touching them, before they're caught by rival helicopters or trucks. You have a limited supply of fuel. Hold down the FIRE button to fly. The method of flying is unorthodox enough to be interesting and the graphics -- though simple -- look good enough. It's fun to sit on a platform and wait for people to fly by, meanwhile keeping an eye on the endearingly random movement of the enemies. My one complaint: trucks can sometime hit you even though you're not touching them. So...stay far away from trucks.
