Bagman
钱袋人
Bagman is an action game released in 1982 by Valadon Automation. Players control a character navigating through underground mines to collect bags of money while avoiding guards and other hazards. The gameplay involves moving left and right, climbing ladders, and descending ropes to reach scattered bags across multiple levels. Each stage presents an increasingly challenging layout with moving enemies and obstacles. The objective is to collect all bags on a level before progressing to the next one. Controls are straightforward, using directional inputs for movement and climbing mechanics. The game features progressively difficult stages with varied enemy patterns and level designs.
