Lode Runner takes you back to the golden era of innovative game concepts. Originally developed by Brøderbund, the game was one of the first to fuse arcade with puzzle elements. It has been on the market for over two decades already, which is amazing even for real life things, let alone the fast changing computer industry.
The game idea is simple: With your nimble and valiant hero you collect treasures, dig traps for enemies (a.k.a Bungelings) that are trying to hunt you down and move up the screen to get to the next level. Levels become progressively more difficult and enemies turn more aggressive to keep you excited.

“I love you guys :-*. My brother and I were/are LR junkies playing for hours and hours (and that was, yes, 1983 on my Apple IIC and his Commodore). I had all the versions and knock-offs. Then I got the newer version from Brøderbund. Then XP ended that. Every once in a while I would look online hoping against hope... then I found you about a month ago. And all is well in the world again. I am truly grateful to you for resurrecting the game.”
