Elevator Action for Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)

Infiltrate a top-secret building as a secret agent in Elevator Action for the Nintendo Entertainment System, a port of the classic arcade stealth-action game. Your mission is to descend through a 30-story building, strategically using elevators and escalators to navigate its treacherous floors. Along the way, you must enter red doors to collect confidential documents, while avoiding or engaging enemy agents who emerge from closed doors, intent on stopping you.
