Choplifter (stylized as
Choplifter!) is a 1982
Apple II game developed by
Dan Gorlin and published by
Brøderbund. It was ported to other home computers and, in 1985,
Sega released a coin-operated
arcade game remake, which in turn received several home ports of its own. While many arcade games have been
ported to
home computers and
consumer consoles,
Choplifter was one of the few games to take the reverse route: first appearing on a home system and being ported to the arcade.
