Wizard Tag

Six floors of a castle are joined by ladders. You start at the bottom left. Three keys lie on the floors, one always on the very top floor. A creature paces each of the first, third and fifth floors from the top, turning back at the walls. Walk along the floors and climb the ladders to collect the three keys, and the wizard appears somewhere in the castle: tag him to finish the level. One touch of a creature ends the game. On every new level the keys are scattered again and the creatures move faster. The best level reached is shown on the title.

Controls: Joystick only, either controller: left and right walk along a floor, and up and down climb a ladder when you stand at it. A side button pauses. On the title, up and down choose and a button starts.
