Time Runner (video game)

Time Runner is a maze video game, similar to Konami's 1981 "Amidar" arcade game, published by Funsoft in 1981. It was written for the TRS-80 by Yves Lempereur who also wrote an Atari 8-bit family version released the same year. A port to the Commodore 64 by Scott Maxwell and Troy Lyndon was published in 1983.
Gameplay.
"Time Runner" is a game in which the player goes around the edges of 20 rectangular boxes on a checker board playing area to stake each one out as territory.
Reception.
Dick McGrath reviewed the game for "Computer Gaming World", and stated that ""Time Runner" may hold out some challenge to nimble-fingered whiz kids, but in my book it only rates about a 5 out of a possible 10 for arcade games."
