Description

This freeware game is a faithful recreation of the original ZX Spectrum Manic Miner game for the Windows platform. You have to guide miner Willy through a series of 20 caverns and collect keys along the way. You climb, jump and avoid different types of critters while doing so. Difficulty is increased by a time limit, because each maze has a limited supply of breathable air.

The game is keyboard-driven with three basic movement options (left, right, up).
