Chopper Hunt

Chopper Hunt is a video game in the action genre developed by A.N.A.L.O.G. Software and published by Imagic originally released in 1984. It is currently playable on Commodore 64, Atari 8-bit.

This is a revision of A.N.A.L.O.G. Software's Buried Buck$, with some changes.

You are still a helicopter, but now the treasure you search for is different in each level. For example, in the first level you search for barrels of oil, in the second for bags of green money, in the third for nuclear symbols (uranium, I guess), and so on. You still have to bomb the ground to dig a hole to get to the treasures, and the plane keeps dropping giant clods of dirt to fill the hole, and maybe bury you. When you pick up a treasure, you still have to land at your base to claim it. If you are destroyed before returning to base, you drop the treasure. You can only carry one treasure at a time. After collecting all buried treasures, you move on to the next level.

The background has also been improved. There are mountains, a cloud and a sun. The plane has been upgraded from a bomber to a fighter plane. Chopper Hunt, unlike Buried Buck$, was also ported to the Commodore 64.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
