Summary
You are a highly trained Galactic commando deep in enemy territory. Power-hungry leaders of the repressive Bungeling Empire have stolen a fortune in gold from the peace-loving Galactans.
You've just discovered the enemy's secret underground treasure hoard. Your mission:
Infiltrate each of the 75 different sub,terranean levels, evade the Bungeling guards, arid recover every last batch of Bungeling booty.
Run, jump, climb, and blaze your way through mazelike catacombs. You must recover all of the gold. Some of it is hidden in walled-over rooms and dangerous dead-ends or invisibly carried by the guards.
Your only defense is your laser drill pistol. Trap the Bungeling guards in freshly-drilled pits and force them to surrender any gold chests they protect. Don't get trapped yourself! Collect all of the gold in a level, then advance towards the surface and freedom!
You'll never run out of imaginative and cunning adventures, because built into Lode Runner's unique program is an option that lets you create your own fascinating challenges. You can actually build your own puzzles and scenes. No programming knowledge is required.
