King's Valley
19K plays 1985 #Platform
King's Valley is a platform game released by Konami for the MSX in 1985. The game is considered a spiritual successor to Konami's arcade maze shooter Tutankham (1982), with the same theme of treasure hunting in Egyptian tombs and having an identical end-level music tune. It also has similarities to Lode Runner (1983).
The game was initially released on ROM cartridge with 15 levels. A floppy disk version with 60 levels was planned, but shelved. It was included in the 1988 Konami Game Collection Vol. 1 for MSX.
