You play Rick Dangerous, an Indiana Jones type who’s on a quest to find the lost Coolu Amazon tribe. However, his plane crashes in the middle of a bunch of crazed Coolus. Hopefully he’s up to the challenge of escaping. If he is, he will find himself in the pyramid of Egypt with no easy way past leaders and their minions, and then engulfed in a web of traps in a Nazi base.
Rick can jump and climb, as well as carry a limited amount of dynamite and ammunition for his gun. This gun is Rick’s primary means of disposing of enemies. Most traps throughout the game that can kill Rick can also kill his enemies, which can be to the player’s advantage. The dynamite sticks that Rick carries are generally used for solving puzzles, such as through exploding certain blocks (some of them fly towards the explosion, potentially killing Rick in the backfire). Rick is also armed with a pogo stick that allows him to paralyze enemies.
Many of the traps in Rick Dangerous have no visible warning, which means that a player’s initial progress through the game may consist of trial and error. This was criticized by some reviewers.
Rick Dangerous is a platform game across over 100 screens, in which Rick has his gun in one hand, and dynamite sticks in another. You must take a methodical approach to clearing each screen, as there are traps in place which will need memorizing and preempting where possible. Use the dynamite wisely, for enemies you can’t get into the purely-horizontal range of your gun.
