This version is actually the Saturn port, not the Arcade original (although good luck distinguishing them).
I loved the first level of the Saturn version, which respected the original Elevator Action formula, but didn’t enjoy the rest of the levels, which were more Rolling Thunder affairs, with lots of learning instead of the quietly strategic and reflex based gameplay of the older, score based, game.

The older game is available on the Switch as well, in the wonderful Arcade Archives collection, with online leaderboards too!
