Son of Blagger

About

Son of Blagger is a platform puzzle game where you play Slippery Sid, a cunning heir to a legacy of sneaky escapades. Your goal is to navigate the maze-like National Security HQ, collecting golden keys to escape while dodging killer guards and unstable floors that vanish without warning. The game blends precise timing with environmental puzzles, requiring you to memorize layouts and anticipate traps. It's a direct sequel to the original Blagger, offering sharper challenges and tighter controls. Released in 1984, it's a relic of early 80s gaming with pixelated simplicity and punishing difficulty. Fans of retro platformers appreciate its no-frills approach, every death feels earned. The BBC Micro and Spectrum ports kept it accessible, though modern players might find the lack of save points brutal. Nostalgic for a time when escape rooms had teeth and guards had a taste for instant death.
