Manic Miner by Software Projects

Synopsis:

Miner Willy, while prospecting down the Surbition way, stumbles upon an ancient long forgotten mine-shaft. On further exploration, he finds evidence of a lost civilisation far superior to our own, which used automatons to dig deep into the earth's core to supply the essential raw materials for their advanced industry. After centuries of peace and properity, the civilisation was torn apart by war, and lapsed into a long dark age, abandoning their industry and machines. Nobody, however thought to tell the mine robots to stop working, and through countless aeons they had steadily accumulated a huge stockpile of valuable metals and minerals, and Miner Willy realises the he now has the opportunity to make his fortune by finding the underground store.
