A text mode DOS port of a TRS-80 original called GoldMiner, Gold-Miner has you digging deep to find those nuggets with the help of an elevator. Watch out! Floods courtesy of springs are instant death, and cave ins happen too! All the while, the value of gold is fluctuating. Lawnie dies repeatedly and fails to make use of the game's bank feature. Good fun, in a charmingly retro way.
