Lode Runner is a 1983 puzzle video game, first published by Brøderbund. It is one of the first games to include a level editor, a feature that allows players to create their own levels for the game. This feature bolstered the game's popularity, as magazines such as Computer Gaming World held contests to see who could build the best level.
Released 30 October 1983 for Amstrad CPC, Arcade, Apple II and Atari 8-bit by Brøderbund Software and Irem, published by Banpresto and Microsoft Studios. Rated 12 by PEGI, E by ESRB. About 12 hours to beat. 2-player local co-op.
