About this game

Blagger puts you in control of Roger the Dodger, a burglar who must collect a series of keys and use them to open a safe in each location. The game features 30 levels, with every stage placing you under a time limit.

With no weapon available, Blagger must rely on his jumping skills to avoid hazards including cacti, cars, aliens, mad hatters, giant mouths, and chinamen. Contact with a hazard, a long fall, or running out of time costs a life. Losing all lives ends the game, while reaching the safe allows progression to the next location.
