Gold Fever

Gold Fever is an action-platform game for the Commodore VIC-20. You control a miner searching for scattered gold across a multi-tiered mine while navigating vertical shafts and racing toward the exit.

Runaway ore carts, boulders, chasms, and an ambushing claim jumper stand in the miner’s way. Carefully timed jumps can clear some obstacles for bonus points, while three collisions exhaust the available miners. Oxygen is limited, adding pressure to every move.

Across nine increasingly difficult levels, the miner must collect more gold while facing faster hazards and tighter timing challenges. The game was developed by Corey Ostman and published by Tronix Publishing, Inc.
