In this game you are the pithead winding gear operator and you are lifing coal tubs to the surface. But I have a feeling the opening text was written to take the piss. At the end it reads “if you are successful you will be rewarded with a view of the golden miners lamp” followed by BIG DEAL, like what? How bloody bizarre. Anyway you're lifting red trays with your crane onto the surface and you need six in six attempts for view of lamp. It's a more boring game than Wash 'n' Stosh but it's the more competent game as you can actually achieve in doing something rather than in Wash 'n' Stosh. But when they said six in six, they meant it, I eventually did it in 18 tries and still it said hard luck and told me to don't give up hope....dope....chuckle...you cheeky bastard. Besides I don't think you can actually do it in six attempts anyway as I believe the blue and magenta ones you need to avoid count amongst that and so you would need six red ones in a row for it to happen, so yeah this game is a cheeky bastard. It's a far better game than Wash 'n' Stosh, hence my score, but don't bother getting it done in six for the Golden Miners Lamp, just do it once, hold a parade, reset and move on with your lives.
