Lode Runner

Overview

A resurrection of the original classic platform game with a number of updates such as one and two player options, detailed graphics, character moves, a level editor, and music with sound effects. Beside you run from some red-toga wearing "Mad Monks" that eat you (like in the "Beast Master" movie) if they catch you, you have a few things on hand to use: small bombs, big bombs (nothing will reappear when they destroy something), a drill (for stone floors), booby-traps, and a few other things up your sleeve.

This USA only compilation on one disc includes the following games that were originally released separately for the Playstation only in Japan:

Lode Runner: The Legend Returns (1995 Japan release)

Lode Runner Extra (1997 Japan release)
