Power Pyramids

Power Pyramids is a video game in the action genre developed by Quicksilva Ltd. and published by Grandslam Entertainments Ltd. originally released in 1988. It is currently playable on Commodore 64.

The pyramids found on Earth were actually brought from the planet T-Pyge, which built and sold them to many other planets as well. To transport the pyramids to the planets required two transporters, one for the structure and one for the power supply to keep it running. This was very costly until it was decided to turn the pyramid off and turn it back on again upon arrival at the customer. You have just transported four pyramids to Earth and now you are tasked with supplying power to each of them in this flat screen platformer. Each pyramid ranges in size from the smallest, containing only 14 rooms, to the largest, containing 54.

You send a spheroid to locate all the energy points in each level within each pyramid, but you have no control over the spheroid except to make it jump. The spheroid moves in one direction until it bounces off an object and moves in that direction, but when it touches objects it loses its energy and when the energy is zero you lose one of three lives. On each screen you have to control certain objects such as springs and moving platforms which, if timed correctly, will move the spheroid in the direction you need it to go. To help you there are also energy charging points, anti-gravity pads, accelerators and transporters to take the spheroid to other levels.
