Trolls on Treasure Island is an unlicensed action-puzzle game released for the NES in 1994 by American Video Entertainment. Rather than a traditional platformer, it challenges players to guide continuously moving trolls through 32 levels of hazards to collect gems.
How to Play
Your troll moves horizontally on its own. Use the D-pad (mapped to arrow keys) to move them up or down the screen to collect jewels while avoiding obstacles like spike traps, floating mouths, and sticky gum. The core mechanic requires you to match the color of your troll’s hair to the color of the jewels they are collecting.
Tips
Pay close attention to your troll’s hair color, as grabbing the wrong colored jewel will cost you. Timing your vertical movements is critical since you cannot stop your troll’s constant forward momentum.
