Hyper Lode Runner — About this game
Collect every gold pile in scrolling labyrinths, then reach the escape ladder that appears. Robots chase along ladders and ropes, but digging temporary holes can trap them and reveal gold they carry. Solid blocks cannot be dug, and closing holes are dangerous to the runner as well as enemies. The challenge is to shape a route before the bricks return, using robot movement and occasional keys or doors to complete a level without being cornered. Choose GAME with SELECT and START, then begin at an early level. A digs right and B digs left; practise trapping a robot while keeping your own escape route. After collecting all gold, look for the new ladder. Pause with START, then SELECT to inspect the whole level.
