Blackbeard's Treasure

Blackbeard's Treasure is a single screen action game where the player has to retrieve the lost treasure of Blackbeard the pirate. The treasure is located at the bottom of the sea and to collect it divers have to be sent down. The divers have to be guided from the boat at the top of the screen to the treasure at the bottom and then back up again. The problem is that the water is full of sharks and two giant octopuses are guarding the treasure. Any contact with these and one of the five divers is lost. Up to three treasures can be carried at a time and after ten have been retrieved the level increases. After twenty treasures an extra diver is given.
