Choplifter is a combat helicopter game where you will take the role of a helicopter pilot where you will be attempting to save several hostages throughout prisoner of war camps. The Bungeling Empire has placed these camps in a territory that is being over run by their evil group. You will be trying to get all of the hostages out of the prisoner of war camps and transfer them to a friendly base.
Throughout the game play you will be combating against the Bungeling Empires tanks and several other enemy combatants.
You will be attempting to keep your helicopter alive or you will have to get more parts smuggled into the country to repair your helicopter.
You will be using the helicopter that is known as the Hawk-Z that has the ability to face in three different directions. These directions consist of left, right, or forward. These directions are the ways that you will have the option to shoot towards your enemies and allow you to keep flying in another direction. You must be very careful when it comes to your direction of fire though because there is the possibility that you are able to shoot one of the hostages.
When you are rescuing the prisoners you will be required to shoot
one of the buildings surrounding the hostage camps to be able to release them. You will then have to land to make it that the hostages are capable of boarding your helicopter then taking them back to one of the safe camps. You are only capable of transferring one building of hostages at a time making it that there will be several trips to transfer all of the hostages from one prisoner of war camp. The best part is that the hostages will let you know when your helicopter is full by waving you off and then wait for you to come back if you can even make it back. Depending on the number of trips you end up having to make will depend on how difficult it is to get the hostages. Each trip will become more difficult then the next so there may be a chance that you don’t end up rescuing all the hostages the first few tries.
When you are attempting to pick up the hostages you must be careful not to land on one since it will of course kill them, as well trying to make sure your helicopter is landed flat and not on a tilt because this will cause the hostages to die while attempting to board. It isn’t just so easy picking up hostages and flying away, you will still be under attack by the enemy. There is the chance tanks will take fire on you and the only way you can shoot back is by being in the air, so some pick-ups may take longer than you think.
