#elevatoraction

So I was hoping to come back from Berlin with a long list of games I had beaten over the extended break... Not quite the case. But don't worry, I haven't been idle.

Recently, I had the joy of playing #ElevatorAction on the #Gameboy , a fun and challenging spy thriller where you search for secret documents in tall buildings. I mean, you don't need to search that hard. The doors have large '!' on them.
All the while, you are being hounded by goons, dogs, and robots.

Navigating stairs, chutes and eponymous elevators, you need to find all the documents and escape with your lovely get away driver. It sounds all simple, but it can be devilishly unfair at times, with enemies spawning right on top of you as you wait for that slow elevator to take to safety.

A game I am glad I have beaten, but won't be looking to master on RetroAchievements. Definitely worth having a play though! Need to see if I can get the Sega Saturn sequel working properly now!

Oh yeah! Playing the original #arcade game #ElevatorAction on #SteamDeck! (plus the #SegaSaturn arcade port, but whatever 😉) store.steampowered.com/app/191

This was one of my absolute favorites in the early #1980s. I sunk a lot of quarters into its cabinet at the #boardwalk #SkeeBall arcade in #AvalonNJ.

Apparently also available on #NintendoSwitch, #PS4, and #XboxOne: city-connection.co.jp/s-tribut
