| 1650 | 4 | 2001-04-08 08:48:12 | <em>Category:</em> Arcade<br> <em>Description:</em> KGoldrunner is a simple game where you control a green figure to collect all goldnuggets per level and escape to the top. That would be very easy, if there were no enemies which try to catch you. The difficulty is that you havn't any weapon to kill them directly. Your only chance is to run away or to dig a hole in the bricks where enemies can fall in. After a few seconds a captured enemy climb out of the hole, but if the hole closed befor he dies and will be born again at his birthplace. There are three kinds of bricks. Normal bricks, where you can dig holes and walk over. Then there are beton bricks, which are "undigable" and at last there are bricks on which the figures cant stand and they will fall through them if they walk over. | kgoldrunner 0.3 | new | |
