You play as Roderick Hero, a rescue worker tasked with saving miners trapped underground after volcanic activity devastates a sprawling mine. Navigating increasingly large and maze-like shafts, you must locate stranded miners while managing a limited energy supply. Roderick is equipped with a prop pack for hovering and flight, a helmet-mounted microlaser for defeating hostile creatures such as bats, spiders, and snakes, and a small supply of dynamite for blasting through rock and lava barriers. The laser can also destroy obstacles, but at the cost of additional time and energy. As the game progresses, mine layouts become more complex, enemies grow more numerous, and hazardous lava walls and pools make survival and rescue increasingly challenging.
