Story
My name is Bocco, or rather all my friends call me that.
When I was a kid, with the children on my street, we often played treasure-hunting.
On our street, there was an old man who gathered us in his porch and told us stories of kinds, missing civilizations and hidden treasures.
After years later, I realized he was an archaeologist.
One day, when he was on his deathbed, he called me to see me.
There was a dusty trunk on the table that was full of old paper maps.
That was his treasure. This is precious. Now all old cards are mine.
I gathered my luggage and set off on the adventure.
I've been waiting for all my life.
How to play
Your objective is for Bocco to reach the exit of each level. This requires collecting keys to open closed doors, collect and use bombs to destroy walls, use switches to enable bridges to access normally inaccessible areas of the level.
