Hole Land is a 1984's arcade game developed by Tecfri.[1][2]

Gameplay

Player controls a multi-colored robot able to jump and shoot enemies such as small humanoids, rats and snakes that come from holes on the screen. The goal is to eliminate them all.[3] Enemies are able to attack the player with bombs, making him unable to jump or shoot for a short time.[4] The player can also become defenseless getting hit by rocks coming from vulcans.[5] A life is lost when enemies touch the player and take away the robot's lower half, which can be avoided by jumping over them without touching them.[6] At the two first stages, everytime the robot is damaged by rocks and bombs, a friendly short old man appears to help and fix it.[7]

The game has three stages.[8] At the last part of the third one, the player faces off a hideous giant monster with a ball-shaped body and an enormous mouth with pointed teeth.[9] The goal is to shoot and destroy all of its teeth before it can reaches the player's position, otherwise the monster will devour the robot.[10] If the player manages to defeat it, the game returns itself to the first stage, endlessly.[citation needed]
