Overview
Description

Counter-Strike 2 is the free-to-play successor to CS:GO, a tactical 5v5 shooter defined by precise gunplay, economy management, and deep competitive play built on the new Source 2 engine.

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.

So much fun

Counter-Strike 2 has been my go-to lately. Pure skill-based gunplay. One gripe: steep learning curve. Would recommend.
