Rick Dangerous is a Jump 'n' Run game, where you need to get Rick through four levels with altogether 80 rooms, that are larded with numerous (74) different traps and enemies. You can lay down explosives to bomb away enemies or boulders, shoot with a pistol or "freeze" the enemies for a few seconds with the help of a wooden stick, which although in most cases is not much help. The shots and explosives are each limited to 6. However, you can find boxes of ammunition in hideouts to refill them.

The case history, (Rick, the fearless adventurer is searching for the lost Goolu temple, which he will find, but not in the way he had imagined), was enclosed as a comic. The scans can be found on the C64-Games website under "Manual".

Interestingly there are some similarities between Rick Dangerous and the known Tomb Raider series. The producer is Core Design and also the plot (archaeologist searches for artefact) is similar.

The successor Rick Dangerous II is - concerning the controls and the game principle - very similar to part 1, but plays in a futuristic scenario.
