Choplifter III is a Sega Game Gear shoot ’em up built around helicopter rescue combat. The game sends the player across five missions spanning water, underground areas, jungles, and burning cityscapes.
- Cleaned, tested, and guaranteed to play. Authentic cartridge.
- Rescue-focused action combines side-scrolling helicopter combat with hostage extraction objectives.
- More than 100 hostages appear across the mission set, adding urgency beyond simply clearing enemies.
- Enemy threats include planes, tanks, gunships, anti-aircraft artillery, aerial assault platforms, and guerrilla fighters.
- The helicopter arsenal includes missiles, bombs, and flame throwers for attacking ground and air targets.
- Mission scenarios include an underground prison infiltration, a metropolis rescue, and jungle combat against anti-aircraft gunners.
The subtitle Rescue Survive reflects the series’ blend of combat and extraction, with Choplifter III carrying that formula onto Sega’s color handheld hardware.
