Run! Go!
Get to the choppa! Then load up some hostages in your helicopter
and take them to the nearest USPS for express priority shipping
back home. In the final Listeners’ Choice 5 miniseries episode
we’re flying the unfriendly skies of the Brøderbund and Sega
classic game Choplifter!
How did this game make its way from the Apple II to the arcade?
What simple foreign puzzle game did Brøderbund pass on? Is the
United States Postal Service the ultimate spy cover story? Did our
special guest record from a submarine sonar station?
Our questions this episode include defining some often-used terms
like “kneebasher” and identifying what arcade game based toy we
would want that no one else would. Do you have a question? You can
join the Podouken Discord by following this link and ask away in
the episode questions channel: discord.gg/k5vf2Jz
The new listener questions segments are also available on
our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@podoukenpodcast2716
