This Choplifter variant sees you patrolling a horizontally scrolling landscape in your chopper. Every so often, a helpless human appears and is picked up by flying as low as possible and lowering a winch.

When the required amount of people have been rescued, the player progresses to the next, more difficult level. Throughout the mission, kamikaze alien craft fly in and try to destroy the helicopter, but the chopper's machine guns and three smart bombs can take them out.

The action is fast and furious, but there's not a lot to keep a player toggling his joystick. The parallax scrolling is extremely pretty, and the graphics and sound are generally good - it's just the gameplay that's lacking.
