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

Similar to Choplifter, players are required to rescue a set amount of people and bring them back to the helipad for the missions to end. Unlike Choplifter, in which helicopter must land to rescue prisoners, in Air Rescue, 2nd button can be used to lower helicopter's ladder to pick them up. Helicopter is also armed for self defence: 4 different weapons can be changed between in helipads.

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.

Stages

Dangerous Holiday Terrorists attack an Amusement Park and took hostages. Maneuver through roller coasters and bring situation under control.

Air Inferno A massive fire broke out in the largest skyscraper in the city. Assist the rescue and fire fighting efforts.

Count Down An airplane hijacking attempt gone really bad. Clear out the terrorists around the plane and in the airport.

Ocean Fire Terrorists attacked a large oil tanker with incerdiary weapons. Rescue the crew before tanker explodes.

Breakdown Darkstar Terrorists' headquarters has been located. Finish them off once for all and rescue their prisoners.
