Overview
Description

Play as Howard Gibson or Jean Clifford, elite agents tasked with retrieving a stolen satellite disc from a museum and a mountain train. The mission escalates as you rescue a kidnapped programmer, infiltrate an underwater base, and battle the Agares ringleader in a high‑stakes showdown.\nThe game blends arcade shooting with split‑screen co‑op, offering quick‑time events and a cinematic storyline reminiscent of classic spy films. Designed for light‑gun peripherals but fully playable with a standard controller, it delivers fast‑paced action for both solo and duo play.

Elevator Action puts you in the shoes of a secret agent infiltrating a high‑rise building filled with elevators, enemy agents, and hidden documents. Navigate 30 floors, collect all the intel, and escape while battling foes in fast‑paced, 2D action that blends shooting, platforming, and stealth. The game features simple 4‑way joystick controls, a shoot button and a jump/kick button, and supports two players alternating turns. Originally released as an upright arcade cabinet, it remains a beloved retro title celebrated for its puzzle‑like elevator navigation and tense combat.
