Unfortunately, the SG-1000 Lode Runner port is a bastardized version of the original computer game and nowhere near as rewarding as Hudson Soft’s NES port. In case you forgot who wears the daddy pants. Once all the gold is collected, a separate ladder will appear and the Runner can climb to temporary freedom, bonus points, and puzzles beyond. Often you’ll have to dig hole upon hole to reach gold buried underneath layers of brick, which can be a nuisance when you have guards honing in on you from every direction such is the life of a gold hoarder. The holes eventually close, though, so if the guard is still in the hole when it closes, he will die and regenerate randomly at the top of the screen. If the guard is about to emerge from the hole while the Runner is climbing over him, the guard will pull him down into the hole. Woe be to the Runner who runs too quickly over a guard after he falls in the hole, for he will fall in after the guard. Also, if the guard had any gold when he fell into the hole, it will automatically pop out of his person. Once lodged firmly in the hole, Lode can walk over said guard like a boss. Though Lode is always out numbered, he’s able to dig holes in the brick for the guards to fall into. The guards will pick up and drop gold anywhere as they see fit, because it’s probably theirs to begin with. There are also anywhere between three and six guards, er, “guarding” the gold on any given level. ![]() There are fifty levels comprised of bricks, ladders and suspended poles. In Lode Runner, you play a tormented soul/treasure hunter who must collect every pile of gold he sees on-screen (in the SG-1000 version, the gold looks like wee peppermint candies). ![]()
