Hijack

Hostage drama aboard a speeding train. Ten VIPs are among the passengers.

Your task is to rescue them by helicopter and take them to the safety of the train's rear security carriage.

The VIPs appear one by one on the roof of the train. The helicopter must be carefully manoeuvred into position above them and, by pressing the joystick fire button, lowering a rope to the hostage.

Getting the helicopter in position is hard enough but there is also gun and cannonfire from the hills to dodge, plus the risk of flying into trackside trees.

There are three skill levels per game.
