About Ruby Hunter

Ruby Hunter is a 2.5D Miner game where your objective is to retrieve the treasures buried deep in the mine.

During your journey you will face several challenges, fight fierce battles with the creatures of the mine, and solve tricky puzzles. Fight the evil Yam-Yam beasts, use the help of Lorries and take up the duel with the Bugs to get their loot. Convert precious gems, shoot blazing lasers and blow up your timebombs on your way to the exit.

Ruby Hunter took inspiration from old-school classics such as Sapphire Yours, Boulder Dash and Emerald Mine.

Features


More than 1000 levels: The game includes classic levels and ones made by the fans over the years. Solve the puzzles over the course of 11 difficulty levels! If you're stuck on a level, feel free to get a hint from the provided demos, or suspend it and continue later.

Игра 'Ruby Hunter' - это увлекательное приключение, которое очаровывает своей простотой и захватывающим геймплеем. Изначальная концепция, охота за рубинами в различных локациях, реализована на удивление качественно. Разнообразие уровней, от тихих лесных зон до опасных пещер, заставляет постоянно адаптироваться и искать новые стратегии. Персонаж отзывчив в управлении, что позволяет легко преодолевать препятствия и собирать драгоценные камни. Визуальный стиль, хоть и не поражает воображение сложностью, приятен глазу и создает атмосферу исследования. Музыкальное сопровождение ненавязчиво дополняет игровой процесс, добавляя ему очарования. Несмотря на относительно короткую продолжительность, игра оставляет приятное впечатление и желание вернуться к ней снова. Единственным минусом можно назвать некоторую однообразность задач в конце игры, но это с лихвой компенсируется общей динамикой и позитивными эмоциями, которые дарит 'Ruby Hunter'. Отличный выбор для тех, кто ищет легкую и увлекательную игру на несколько вечеров.
