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 checkerboard playing area to claim one 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."
