About MANIC MINER

The legendary platforming classic is back! Experience a milestone in video game history in a completely reimagined version! Authorized by original developer Matthew Smith, this reboot of the 1983 classic combines the distinctive and challenging gameplay of MANIC MINER with modern graphics, improved controls, newly arranged music, and extensive historical bonus content. Step back into the role of miner Willy and take on 20 legendary levels filled with deadly creatures, clever jumps, and tricky obstacles. Collect all the items before your oxygen runs out and master one of the most challenging platformers of all time.

Climb the global MANIC MINER online leaderboard and become number one in one of the toughest classics in gaming history! This re-release offers two modes: Enjoy the original pixel art look, or discover all the levels in atmospheric HD graphics with elaborate parallax scrolling, dynamic lighting effects, and lovingly designed backgrounds. Thanks to modernized controls, MANIC MINER plays more precisely and smoothly than ever before, without losing any of the original’s high standards. The classic has also been reimagined musically: The works by Johann Strauss and Edvard Grieg, which were already featured in the original, have been rearranged to give the adventure a contemporary sound.

In addition, the collection includes a comprehensive interactive history that documents the exciting story behind the creation of MANIC MINER from the early 1980s to the present day.…
