Air Rescue for the Sega Master System is a 2D version of Air Rescue. It is similar to Choplifter. Players command a military helicopter for rescue operations which is sent around the world to assist rescuing the civilians and suppressing the armed threats.

Gameplay

Unlike Choplifter, in which helicopter must land to rescue prisoners, in Air Rescue, can be used to lower helicopter's ladder to pick them up. Helicopter is also armed for self defense: 4 different weapons can be changed between in helipads, and fired with .

Helicopter itself (which looks like a S-70) is lightly armored and one shot is enough to bring it down. After all lives are lost game ends and continue screen shows up.
