I had inherited my big brothers C64, along with a couple of paper notes on how to start games. I was very young, around 6 years old.

This article finally revealed to me that weird helicopter game I had played on the C64. The memory of flying over an ocean with a helicopter had stuck with me but not the title. I can't believe I played that title, and it was the inspiration to Sim City! Which I later in life played a lot of.

I think I remember playing that in Russia, too - we had friends who had imported video game consoles, and that helicopter game looks very familiar.
