Choplifter (チョップリフター) is a 1982 Apple II game developed by Dan Gorlin and published by Brøderbund. In the game you pilot a helicopter and must rescue people from prisoner of war camps.

The success of Choplifter meant it was brought to a variety of platforms including the SG-1000 in 1985 and the Sega Master System in 1986. Sega were also responsible for an arcade port to both Sega System 1 and Sega System 2 hardware.

Though Choplifter II was a Nintendo Game Boy exclusive, Choplifter III was ported to the Sega Game Gear.

One of Sega's own games, Air Rescue seems to be inspired heavily from Choplifter.

Still fun after all these years. Inspired by the events of the Iranian Hostage Crisis.

See also Choplifter III, SimCopter (SimCity add on), and Chopper along with Air Rescue.

I was able to get it to work with Firefox with both a USB game controller and the keyboard arrow keys.
