I've discovered the absolute best game available on the VIC! It's called Lode Runner (put out by Broderbund Software). It has (apparently) over 100 different screens and involves running around collecting gold bars. In itself, this is nice but the clincher is that it has an editor to allow you to make your own screens! Thus, you can have a completely new game every time you play (and experiment with any type of setup that you want). However, the reason for this posting is not to tell you about the game. I NEED HELP!!! I reached the fifth level and couldn't find any way to get one of the bars. It's in the middle of the screen and a little more than halfway up to the top. The problem is that it's over a trap door and, unlike other trap doors, when you fall through, you don't get the gold. Thus, you can't get to level 6. Any suggestions from players? - Carlo

Regarding my last posting, the problem that I wanted help on no longer exists. I'm attributing the problem to overheating (since I sure can't explain it otherwise). All of my positive comments stand. I hope that the pseudo-problem didn't discourage anyone from getting the game. - Carlo
