About
A single-screen action puzzle platformer. Run, climb ladders and hang from ropes to collect the gold; dig through the brick floor beside you with 1 and 3 to trap pursuing guards, but get clear before the hole fills back in. Taking the last bar raises an escape ladder to the next level. Levels come from a generator that always joins every floor with a ladder, and more guards join as you progress.
Objective: Collect all the gold on each level and escape up the ladder that appears.
