THE TREASURE OF LUMOS
This is an action arcade/platform game for Spectrum 48K (without music)/128K (with AY music) made using Arcade Game Designer 4.7.
The main character is Jack Scavenger (the player), a novice treasure hunter.
Since saw the Indina Jones movies that Jack is fascinating by this type of adventures.
So he decided to risk his luck.
A friend of him had a reference about a treasure hidden in the Caves of Lune Mountain.
So, in his first adventure, Jack has the mission to find the Treasure of Lumos.
For this he has to explore the Caves of Lune Mountain, where he will find various relics, keys to open the closed doors and... hazards.
To complete the mission, Jack must reach the jeep WITH THE TREASURE!
PLAYING THE GAME
The game has 29 playable screens.
The treasure is in a chest deep in the caves.
To reach it, jack must find the 5 keys that open the respective door:
- 4 doors and keys are numbered (1 to 4);
- Main door and respective main door key are not numbered.
Jack can also pick up 45 relics in his way that rises the score... and an extra life.
But the task it's not that easy. He will face many hazards in his way, like:
- The patrolling enemies;
- The stones that fall from the ceiling;
- The bouncing bubbles and birds that patrolling the air;
- The deadly weeds and bonfires scattered across the floor.
Touching anything of this means losing 1 life.
Jack can use lifts (elevator platforms) and teleporters to reach places or/and collect some relics.
He also has to activate levers to access some places.
In the bottom of the game screen we can see:
- The number of lives;

Losing all lives means GAME OVER.
