GOLD DIGGER for Sinclair Spectrum
by Stephen Lathrope
from Sinclair Programs, March/April 1983

Digger is an excellent arcade-style game for the 16K Spectrum. It is
based on an already popular routine and requires you to take your
user-defined man up several ladders to a treasure chamber on the top floor.

When you arrive, the CARRYING sign will flash, indicating that the man
has picked up a bag of gold. There are three bags to retrieve, but it
will be a very skilful player who can grab them all, because there is
a snag - a hungry but stupid beast concerned to eat you.

Evade the monster if you can, or dig a hole which you can leap but it
cannot, by pressing the 0 key. Meanwhile your oxygen supply is
diminishing rapidly.

This is a very professional looking routine, though there are two
possible improvements to keep the tinkerers interested. It was
submitted by Stephen Lathrope, of Beaconsfield, Bucks.
