The game



The objective of the game is to reach the exit of the pyramid, located in the top level. The game has 6 levels of increasing difficulty. Each level has more and more difficult enemies:

* Ghosts: they can go through the maze walls. They cannot be killed, but when they are shot they change the direction of movement.

* Rats: they move laterally. Fred must jump vertically to avoid them. They cannot be killed.

* Acid drops: run quickly to avoid getting hit by them.

* Mummies: they walk slowly on the horizontal passages and fall quicky down the vertical corridors. They disappear when they get hit by a bullet, and reappear in a different location.

* Chameleons: they walk on the side of the vertical corridors and jump from one side to the other.

* Vampires: they fly in the maze and change directions randomly. They can be killed by shooting them.

* Skeletons: they walk on the horizontal corridors and climb up and down the ropes, trying to follow Fred. They die when hit by a bullet.

Objects



There are different types of objects that Fred can collect inside the maze:

* Treasures: they are worth 500 to 1500 points, plus extra bonuses when you reach the exit.

* Power-up: increases the power level.

* Ammo-up: recharges the number of bullets to the maximum level.

* Map: shows a map of the section of the map near Fred. The corridors are shown in white and the walls in blue.

After finishing a level you will get 5000 points, and 1000 bonus point for each treasure collected during the game.
