It's alright. Basically, the object of the game is to find a key in each level...it's usually buried...while trying to avoid other enemies. The problem is, the enemies can dig up and take the key (without your knowledge) so, you definitely have to keep on your toes. There's a time limit, too. It takes a lot of luck, patience to get far in the game. There's a boss battle every tenth floor. After getting to the top, (50th floor) you have to go all the way back down.
There's a sequel that was only released in Japan called Asmik-kun World 2 which has you building a road to the goal. I never made it very far in this one.
Asmik-kun was Asmik's mascot (he's that little pink dinosaur guy on most of their cover arts) and there are several games starring him on Famicom, as well.

PS: Speaking of Meldac games, has anyone played Heiankyo Alien? I used to love it.
I liked HA. It's like a overhead version of Lode Runner if I recall. Haven't played since a road trip to Ohio over 24 years ago.
