Volcano Hunter

Volcano Hunter is a video game in the action genre originally released in 1991. It is currently playable on DOS.

The player controls the movements of one 'Harry the Hunter', the sole inhabitant of a village perched on the side of a volcano, overrun by ghostly Druts, deadly floating apparitions that can only be thwarted by taking shelter inside buildings and can only be dispersed by applying timed fuse bombs, of which Harry, fortunately, has an unlimited supply. (Too bad there's also an infinite amount of enemies!) Most of what Harry hunts are fuel tanks, which the Druts have stolen from the village to fuel their gold mining activities, and his main objective is to collect them and return them to the village... though he also earns points for collecting the gold he finds (ditto the new 'Beamer' bonus), destroying Druts and simply exploring up and down the stairs of this 200+ screen complex.

As well as Druts chasing to the edge of the screen and killing on contact, Harry is somewhat fragile and loses a man for the slightest fall from a ledge or through a gap in a platform; also venturing underwater or spending too long near a lava flow will result in the loss of a life.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
