Description

Mine Rescue is a 1-player arcade game for the TRS-80 CoCo.

A terrible disaster has just occurred in the deep dark caverns of the Calico Mines. Bad air has leaked into the five mine shafts after dynamiting for a new motherload. Many miners have been overcome by toxic gasses. You must get tanks of fresh oxygen to each miner before it's too late!

Played on a large scrolling map, the player braves multiple dangers, and can jump and throw their pickaxe to defeat creatures. The miner has limited oxygen for each expedition, and can refill their own tank at the starting point, and must return there when all stranded miners have been rescued. Only 5 oxygen tanks can be carried at a time, and more can be obtained from the mine office. Gems and gold nuggets can be gathered along the way for bonus points.
