Lode Runner's Rescue is an action game developed by Joshua Scholar and published by Synapse Software for the Commodore 64 and Atari 8-bit computers in 1985 as a follow-up to Lode Runner.[1]
Reception
Lode Runner's Rescue was positively received by press, including Ahoy!,[2][3] ANALOG Computing,[4] Atari Explorer,[5] and Commodore Magazine which described it a surprise hit.[6] Computer Gaming World praised the Atari version's graphics but asked "How likely is it that a game with girls, mice, cats, and magic mushrooms should be called 'Lode Runner's Rescue'?" It speculated that the publisher put the series name on an unrelated game.[7]
